I've had such a shitty month (actually the past three months have been quite shitty), but I'm trying to focus on the positive today. We're having dinner my husband and me (our first Thanksgiving married!), my sister's family and a few friends. My bro-in-law's mom, who always manages to start drama every time she visits, was supposed to come but canceled at the last minute, so I'm thankful it's just people I love and adore who will be there, and who are primarily drama-free.
Tomorrow I fly to New York for work (not thankful for that, but thankful I have a job), so it's going to be a bit tricky to read entries this week. If I don't read all of them, I apologize in advance, and I will do better in future weeks when I'm not working 14-hour days.
Ummm, I'm not sure this was as positive as I wanted it to be, but I hope everyone has a wonderful day, whether it's Thanksgiving for you or just Thursday!
Your first married Thanksgiving is SPECIAL! I'm a sap so congratulations, when you've found someone to spend your life with, that's definitely something to be thankful for!
It's Thanksgiving! My turkey has been brining since yesterday, all the groceries are bought... Now to just get out of bed and cook, ha! I seriously slept till 11 and it was delicious.
It's just us four today and I am thankful for that. For a no-stress cook-fest with my kids, for my husband to help wash dishes later and my silly little dog to lick the plates.
2016 has been rough in many ways - I feel older in my soul after this one, which is sad. But there is still so much to be grateful for.
After the cooking is done, and the eating and finding a place for all those leftovers in an already crowded fridge, it will just be us again, and that is truly a blessing.
Not only can you find books from Idolers past and present (and please let me know if there are ones I should be adding) - if you go through that link to do your shopping, Idol gets a small fee for anything you end up buying!
Happy Thanksgiving all. Just me and my mom at home. This avoids us being ignored by 99.9 percent of the family at my cousins house. Hope ya'll have a great day.
