Over The River And Through The Woods......

What are your Thanksgiving plans?? Where you chowing down? Got any traditions?? High School football games?

Just Angie, my 2 boys, myself and a 24.5 pound bird! All the fixin's....mashed potatoes, stuffing, all the veggies......I will again attempt to recreate my Dad's gravy!!! Just hanging out for the day, watch some football in front of the fire and have a nice quiet dinner!

Have a great Thanksgiving all!

Almost time to get our fish on!!!

Just put my famous apple pie in the oven. Mother in laws as usual. Everyone enjoy and be thankful for what you have.

Dinner here. Christine's kids are coming in tonight--she drove to New haven to pick them up.

I could catch Bourne/Wareham or Sandwich/Feehan tomorrow, but I have no rooting interest. I don't even know who my alma mater plays on Thanksgiving any more--they ended their traditional one because it wasn't competitive any more

Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools, because they have to say something.

Thumbs up Another Thanksgiving to remember

A small get together with my wifes family. 60+ and counting. And everyone can COOK UP A FEAST TO DIE FOR. My contribution is my brined garbage can turkey. One of three turkeys and a ham. Wife is making candied sweat potatoes, punch.
Mother in law has to bring the oyster stuffing or answer for it. Everyone has a specialty to bring.

Then over to my mothers house for the full turkey feed, be home early though....my son has Pnuemonia poor kid....so we are just gonna have dinner and then home so he can rest......he's been resting good for a couple of days and if he doesn't get his turkey I don't know what he'll do...

Growing old is a terrible thing. Never skip your meds, you'll end up paying for it. Enjoy the day regardless, be thankful you can still complain

Yea and I'm only 38

This is one of those dumb injuries anyway. I smashed a toe and instead of resting it decided to go on a three day business trip to Charleston, SC.

That was a mistake.

All things considered, it isn't all that bad. I will heal.

With hindsight I should have planted my ass on the couch and stayed home. It wasn't even the bad toe, it was walking on my heel for a week that strained the other side of my foot. The secondary injury is now the bigger problem!

Imagine, drop a kids skateboard helmet on your foot and a week and a 1/2 later have 5 , count 'em FIVE prescriptions and crutches
