Thanksgiving Survival

Another Thanksgiving has come and gone..thank goodness. Don't misunderstand, I love the holidays. I like to cook and have everything set up to look just right. This year my Dad and sisters (three of the six), plus two nieces made it up just in time. The only bad thing was after cooking all that food I couldn't eat any of it myself! So I watched everyone else. How sad is that?

Black Friday, that was interesting. For some reason I had a desire to wake up at 3:45 in the morning and pick my sisters up to go shopping! That proves I am certifiable and belong in Chattahoochee! However, we got some good bargains and came out of the stores unscathed.

Saturday..it was time to decorate my office for Christmas. And I must say, thanks to my talents and my sister Shannon, the place is fantasmically gorgeous! We have had tons of compliments on the decor.

Sunday, family goes home, we clean up and try to relax. The relax part didn't last long. I have already started wrapping presents and putting up the tree in my home,. Its almost complete but it needs a bit more. Unfortunately, I will be traveling this weekend and then again in the two weeks following. I'm tired just thinking about it.

As they say, no rest for the wicked (that means me!). Hopefully everyone had a wonderful weekend and may the rest of your month be cheerful!
