We had a really nice Thanksgiving day with our family. Slobo and I had prepared dinner for 11 people and it seems to have gone okay. I don’t think tho, I’ll be volunteering to host everyone together again tho. This was a weird year. Normally, Slobo and I go to my parents house for Thanksgiving because my Dad loves to have the smell of turkey cooking in his house. Mom called the week before tho, to tell me their oven died. I volunteered, but it wasn’t until my brother urged her, that they agreed to go ahead and come. She said after hearing about Ms. D’s cancer being back, her problems were really nothing ….. she wanted to just celebrate as did my Dad. Slobo’s mom and sister came also. His mom has been sick with Bronchitis and his sister fought traffic for several hours to get here the day before. It was nice, but I think as we all age, holidays just don’t have the spark….. Everything came together nice, everyone was there, but few had their heart in it. The table was set pretty and the kids all enjoyed it a great deal. That is all that matters, and for that, I am thankful!

I hear that Mars is in retrograde until Jan 30th, so hopefully Christmas will go well with alot of effort… and we can get back to normal Jan. 30th. lol.

Here’s to happy thoughts and warm wishes…. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to all… Don’t forget to tell your loved ones they are loved and appreciated.
