Dinner was wonderful. We hosted a houseful, with enough food to feed an army! We did a turkey and a ham, cranberry-apple stuffing (used up a couple of homemade loaves of bread for the stuffing. Yum!) cranberry-orange relish, ginger glazed carrots, mashed potatoes and mixed vegetables, cranberry bread, cinnamon streusal bread, pumpkin cheese cake, apple pie and The Guy's strawberry cream pie. Everything except the strawberry pie was low-fat or low carb since my stomach can't handle processed foods, Lizze is a health food fanatic and The Gal is diabetic. Even the kitties were on their best behavior, and all are passed out cold from the exhaustion of being cute all day, lol. It was a wonderful holiday!
Dad was overjoyed with the laptop. He's already set up at home with WiFi (I picked up a router and Keagan set it all up for my dad.)
The only bad thing is that I injured my back this past weekend, moving a set of shelves. The Guy worked on it with tiger's balm and I soaked in the tub for whole with the ache and pain bath salts. It was feeling much better today, so hopefully I will heal up before the new furniture comes next weekend.
