I have leftovers of all the sides that I wanted (stuffing, sweet potatoes [made without marshmallows], mashed taters, cranberry relish, Brussels sprouts, pumpkin pie) -- but no turkey. My cousin smoked 2 turkey breasts, and we ate every last bit. So I either have to cook some chicken to go with my sides (I have chicken in the freezer but not turkey) or just eat sides. And the sides are tasty as hell, but they just need turkey, you know?

I don't think I grabbed any leftover Brussels sprouts. We may have eaten them all at dinner, actually.
As good as Leftover Nachos and Turkey Dinner Poutine sound, I'm going to just chow down on a turkey leg Henry VIII style now. Because I can.

I might have to make the Leftover Nachos, because those would be good even without turkey. Hmmm.
(Tim is camping for the weekend, so I can be as gross as I want. Inside pants, bad TV, and Leftover Nachos! Woo!)

I have leftover stuffing and gravy and tart. So I can just cook some chicken and broccoli (both of which I have in the fridge) and recreate yesterday's dinner. I'd better get the tree up first, because yesterday made it clear that that's not happening after dinner.

ita, if you get to the point where you are not in above 5 pain, I can bring turkey to you. And cranberries. And pie. But no much else and I come with little people this weekend.

I saw a Coldwell Banker commercial that uses Motley Crue's "Home Sweet Home." I was actually speechless.

Mac has gone to help grandma clean house and earn money. I broke out the wine with lunch and am taking a break from cleaning. 2 dish racks of dishes washed this far, second load of laundry in, and boxes/bags/trash/recycling/compost all removed from kitchen to their rightful homes. Still a lot to do before I can think about a tree going up.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
if you get to the point where you are not in above 5 pain
I'm actually doing really well right now (although I can't drive precisely because of that) and have another treatment tomorrow, so this weekend should be good, if you like.
I'll tidy up, but don't expect much. EXCEPT OVERWHELMING GRATITUDE.
