flan, you need to watch No Escape with Own Wilson. EDGE OF THE SEAT! I was so tense watching it! I would just get all nervous and literally hold my breath. Pierce Brosnan is in it too. Also watched Max. Great movie. And Rikki and the Flash. Break out the kleenex. If you have a dysfunctional family you can watch this movie and laugh and cry at the same time.

DD has a 1/2 day today, when she gets home we are planning on heading to the shore, only about an hour's drive. It is a place where DS and I lived for a few years. Our favorite candy place is there. We try to make the trek every year.

It's the Thanksgiving Pre Game Day! Gonna do some pies when DD gets home and start getting things prepared. Will get the bird ready and just put in the fridge and then have it ready to pop in the oven tomorrow. Gotta get the Christmas china out, etc.
I really need to get these kids of mine in line.. First day of Thanksgiving break and they were up at 5:30. I mean it's like they don't even know who their mother is. And they're doing crazy stuff like wanting breakfast, talking to me AND expecting me to answer.

I feel bad! I thought I have mentioned this! I am sorry!
I met him at the bus stop. He asked me out. I took time because of the previous break up. So I called him one Sunday. We met for lunch. He is a Dr. of Engineering, a great cook and a rabid QVC shopper!

And if he doesn't treat you right...the Spork Brigade will jump into action.
My children have had direct access to my mother for less than 24 hours and she has already decided she is buying them the stupid, over-priced mermaid tails that I vetoed on Christmas lists and told them they would have to buy themselves.

I can't decide. There is a beautiful garden museum but $$$. My sister wants me to fly down to DC. She wants to buy the dress. He will pay for it all. But don't want to waste the money. You know?
I vote for DC too!! Congrats Trudy. Is this a different guy than the one you were dating on DHH?
Morning everyone. I only work until 3:00 today then a long weekend.
The house next door to me was recently purchased by an LLC. They have been doing extensive renovations which is odd because the house was in great shape. Now there are half a dozen little dogs & I think she is running some sort of dog rescue service. I'm all for animal rescue but really don't want to listen to a bunch of yippy ankle biters all weekend long every weekend.

Yes, Himself just left. I took a break and this one swooped right in when he figured it out!
Trudy, whatever you decide, a grand wedding or a trip to the JOP, I wish you the greatest of blessings.
So happy for you.

Is NJN on a water pill now? All these threads about pee.
The shore sounds great.
My kids have been out of school since Friday. My niece and brother got here Monday night.
Mom's been busy all morning in the kitchen. So far she has made breakfast and boiled eggs.
I'm going to go get things moving shortly.
Hope everyone has a productive yet stressfree day.
Happy Wednesday.

Good luck Oh4! I would rather do just about anything than go to the grocery store the day before a holiday at least there is no snow in your forecast. That usually clears the shelves!
I just ordered new bath sheets. I love Neiman Marcus's Marcus collection sheets but when they aren't on sale they are expensive. They were on sale & free shipping. I think they always have free shipping. I am happy happy happy!!
My morning so far ...
DS: Hungry!
Me: So eat your breakfast.
DS: Hungry!
Me: So eat your breakfast.
Lather. Rinse. Repeat.
The cornbread for my MIL's mom's stuffing is cooling. It's supposed to sit overnight so I will make the stuffing tonight. 8 hours is 8 hours whether it's "overnight" or not. I love that I can give MIL this taste of home, so to speak. She says I come very, very close to nailing it. It would only be perfect if her mom made it since each cook has their special touch. Not to mention exact ingredients, cookware, heat source, etc. I take it as a huge compliment that I come so close to nailing a recipe that I'll never be able to taste from the original cook since she's dead.
Have to decorate the Reese's cheesecake, make my biscuits, and make the stuffing today. I'll spread the cooking out throughout the day. I'm sure I'll have the assistance of my mini-chef. He helped mix the cornbread batter. I'm sure he'll have a blast breaking apart the cornbread later tonight. I think I'll decorate the cheesecake while he's napping since I don't want help with that.
I'm not single! The bf moved in in August. He threw a few rings on my hand! You are all invited to the wedding! I glitter all day.
DAYUM, WOMAN!
Why are we the LAST to know??????????
flan
How did I not mention this? All true!
Not a mention. Not a single solitary mention. Shame on you! We need a thread. An epic wedding thread. You need to go to time out. Right after he threw the rings on you were SUPPOSED to get on here and tell us. You are in trouble now!

OMG! Nip that in the bud sista!
I know! It's out of control!
Wow, get those kids in line QUICK!
We make sure ours eat breakfast. I don't know why they keep demanding another meal after that.
