Slack Much?

Ok, so everybody has pretty much figured out by now that I can slack with the best of them hee hee.

I'll do a quick catch-up of Thanksgiving and everything else - which really wasn't much - and get current;

Thanksgiving day dinner was at my house - immediate family, so not big & noisy or overly hard on the cook :) It went well - I did everything homemade because I had a point to make with my mother-in-law. She gives off the impression that I can't/don't do anything. So, homemade rolls, homemade dressing, homemade pumpkin pie& pecan pie with real whipped cream, real sweet potatoes - not canned.  Everything came out perfect :)  She seemed a little disappointed, hee hee 

Saturday was the ginormous whole family dinner at her house.  I will give you a perfect example of the kind of things she does to me: when I asked her what I should bring, she told me to bring sweet potatoes and a pumpkin pie. When I get there and put the food down, I see that she has made sweet potatoes and a pumpkin pie...what the heck??   *deep sigh*  that's how it always is, lol.

Next was a trip to Topeka on Monday after thanksgiving and by Wednesday Bobby and I both were sick with an intestinal virus.  One of those that you wish you would throw up, but you can't.  I was literally sick for two days, but my stomach still wasn't right for another two days after that.  It would ache and burn and I felt hungry, but the thought of food was just nasty. The body aches lasted about 3 days also - ugh!  Feeling better now, but weak after all that and spending like four days in my recliner, and no energy to do anything.  I know I'm sick when I don't even feel like opening up the laptop, hee hee.

Saturday was my birthday, but wasn't feeling up to doing anything, so it will probably wait until our anniversary on the 28th of this month.  Yeah, my birthday, Christmas, and my anniversary are all in December. I guess I'll have to start celebrating my half birthday :)
