HELLO!!! Work tomorrow UGH! But it will be good to get back to normal. I just keep saying that hoping I will someday believe it...lol
I did stay home Wednesday. I made Stuffing, Turnip & Carrots, Rue's Peaches and Yam Bake (Thank you Rue I screwed it up and made it too sweet but I am going to try again at Christmas!), Chocolate cream, Key lime, Sugar free Apple, and Lemon meringue pie!!! Everything turned out good. The stuffing was a bit dry but the flavor was good. My sister made the turkey and potatoes and gravy and everything else we enjoyed at Thanksgiving. Her turkey was super juicy! I don't think I could ever make a juicy bird. I'm so afraid it will be under cooked I over cook poultry every time. My Brother In Laws(Aprils hubby) grandparents joined us. They are such a treat. Hubby was able to eat with us before work, Yippie!!! But then had to go to work before dessert:(....I brought him home a plate of a few different kinds of treats. My Oldest sister (Tracey) came for dessert with her boyfriend, His parents , his sister, and his son. That's all I have to say about that.(My niece and Nephew were unable to attend b/c they went with their Dad at 3 for his dinner)
Friday was a Tupperware party for a friend of April's. It went well. Then some Black Friday Shopping at Toys R Us. I did quite well for the boy and Princess. Finding the remaining few gifts they will get may be a challenge. I was just happy to get a few things that were on sale.
Dropped the boy at Father In Laws for a sleepover WOOHOO!!
Princess had a Basketball game (Tournement) in the evening and they won!!! Way to go Princess. Then her and I went to our old neighborhood to visit with our old neighbors. They were very excited to see her and I. We visited there until 10pm!! Then we made the trek back home.
Saturday was nice. Kinda quiet, she had another tournament game at 2pm Princesses team won again!! Then we went to the grocery store and then home! Father In Law dropped off the boy. We had dinner then we were off to my sister Aprils for cocktails and hors' devours. Our breakfast club couple, Martin and Carey, and Martins parents came to visit. Martins parents are here from England. They were so delightful! It was really great to meet them and talk about all kinds of things! They are very interesting people who have traveled the world. Their accents were super fun to listen too! We didn't leave until 11pm! The boy had already fallen asleep in my sisters bed. Princess was sleeping over so I only had to worry about getting him home. He was a bear! Kicking and screaming to get him in the car. Good night over all.
And here its Sunday already! Had a Tupperware meeting. I was recognized as the 12Th in highest sales for our team. Came home and made some lunch. Finished, that's right ladies, FINISHED my Christmas shopping for the kids all online. WOO HOO! Oldest sister came over to look thru clothes I was giving her. Was great to see Matt and Erica too! Did 3 loads of laundry!!! Fed the kids dinner and dropped princess of at yet another practice. 3 Towns over UGH! It is raining with a mix of freezing rain out. Listing to the game in the car and the Patriots are sucking pond water. The boy is being difficult with taking a shower. He is finally in there so I will finish up.
Have a great Sunday evening and a wonderful Monday Morning.
