Angelus ,'Damage'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, butt kicking, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
We 5k'd, and that went well. We had to park in the second overflow lot and the shuttle apparently stopped running before we were ready to leave so we tacked another maybe mile of walking on. I'll be sore tomorrow.
Turkey and stuffing are almost done, Brussels sprouts, root veggies, and sweet potatoes ready to go into the oven. We let Whole Foods do the actual cooking, just heating up.
I cooked everything and everything tasted yum. mac would not eat with us, so, there's that.
Regardless, I am having a lovely day with the parents. Their dog and my dog basically ignore each other, so it is a chill and quiet day. nice.
I cooked everything and had to put the chicken back in the oven, I took it out to soon.
But Dad is gobbling it all down, even the veggies.
Apparently Thanksgiving is when I get sucked into marathons of TV shows I've never heard of before. Last year I watched hours and hours of "Naked and Afraid", this year it was hours of "OutDaughtered" (a TLC show about parents with a 5 year old daughter and all female quintuplets).
I am still killing time before enchiladas, but gave in to eating various bits of my more-traditional food I made (not to take to the enchilada friends) and now I suspect I will not be able to eat much, even though I didn't gorge, the timing was too late. Oh well. (Mmm, pie was so yum)
I was taking a shower to prep for going over to our neighbors for dinner and then suddenly got sick to my stomach. I managed not to actually vomit, but only just. I have sent husband off on his own, as I think the smell of food will not be welcome. So I'm noodling on the internet and not eating. I have had better holidays, I tell you whut.
Feel better soon, Scrappy.
Aw, I hope you feel better soon.
Oh no, Scrappy! What a bummer for you.
I am home after a delightful day with the regular extended family crew (plus one friend of someone's). One of the people I assume is a Republican, after I threw out my Jane the Virgin gambit, said, "I love Samantha Bee!" So OK then! We had a quiet chat about that for a bit, which was pretty fun, but otherwise, no political talk that I heard. Apples to Apples got a little dicey here and there, but again, people just let stuff go (even those of us who are definitely on the same page).
We just got home from spending the day with Dad, his ladylove, her daughter, and the daughter's son, wife, and two year old son. It was a nice, relaxed time. With very friendly dogs, including an adorable German Shepherd puppy who thought my fluffy skirts were the best thing ever.
