the worst thanksgiving ever...
thanksgiving was this thursday...and i'm going to ramble upon what i think was the worst thanksgiving ever...
let's see, it starts with drama over plates...one of my aunts thinks that purple and blue are not good fall colors and so runs out to buy what she feels are more suitable plates, and has the nerve to make comments about them to my mom (who is hosting t-giving)...stress in teh morning, mom comes unglued, i come unglued, sister unglued...crying, yelling...my uncle comes and says, "take me with you(to baylor) take me with you!"..."program hastles"...you know what...it's so dumb! so pointless! so futile!
we run aroudn like turkeys with our heads cut off(excuse the untilemley illustration) to impress each other...we have to "outdo" in a sense the last family gathering...it's pathetic! people get upset about little tiny things...things that ultimatley...i hope won't matter...but, still, it's like the end of the world!...and on thanksgiving too...not just a "family birthday" but...thanksgiving...the tiem whe we give THANKS for what we have...but all i could think was...only 1 more year...this is it...so sad...all to impress each other...it's a horse and pony show...like the circus...you know? like, "look what we can do"...instead of, "thank you God for everything"...i think my brother who is 7 is the only one who actually said what he was thankful for...
so that was the problem...ungrateful hearts...makes sense...celebrating thanksgiving without the thanks...that would do it...how sad...my family has much to be thankful for...my grandpa is still alivea nd decent...my grandma is healthy....there are 12 kids running around...all marriages are in tact...we have cousins, siblings...food on teh table...and only the 7 year old, the youngest got it right...we are thankful...well, we blew it...it's not surprising though...i hope Christmas is different...
now, off to bed! physio test tomorrow...which i am no where near prepared for...but, all's well that ends well, yes?
