This Thanksgiving thing is a real pain in the ass.
Sleep in late.
Watch a parade.
Watch football (gridiron).
Drink wine.
Eat a huge meal of turkey, dressing, mashed potatoes, squash, cranberry relish, rolls, gravy,a jello mold thingy, green bean casserole.
Nap.
Watch more football.
Start on drinking the Scotch.
Watch more football.
Have some dessert (Pecan pie, chocolate pie, pumpkin torte or apple pie)
Drink more Scotch.
Watch the late night football game.
Have a late night snack.
Drink.
Sleep.
The christmas period is quite enough time for my family to be in forced confinement with each other
I have no idea how you manage that and thanksgiving just a month apart.
Every year is a struggle, HSAHM
YOu gotta finagle one side of the family with the other, remember which one visited when last year, keep it all fair, etc.
At least Thanksgiving has none of that presents bull****. Just eating, drinking and football.
Then again, Thanksgiving does have it's most comical moments due to the excessive adult beverages .. and the most tragedies.
Don't forget black friday

Better than being in Afghanistan.
Enjoy it now. When your kids are all grown and left you'll remember these times fondly.s
