Thanks, Heidi.

Hi Stranger.

 

[tinknme]

Hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving Anne Marie! I love the picture in your signature Would you mind if I use it as well?

Well I made my peanut butter pie. Whew, I gotta sit down! That's all the cooking (actually its no bake) so thats all the mixing & pouring I am going to do for tonight..thank heaven for nice bakeries.

We are headed to my BIL's & we are bringing dessert.

Hope you all have a wonderful, safe, & happy Thanksgiving.

Thank you all for another year of friendship.

Hope you enjoy your dinner at Bananas

for having the day off!

This just doesn't feel like the night before Thanksgiving.
Normally we would be cleaning the house, baking goodies, doing as much prep work as we can before the feast. But this year ..... nothing, nada, no pies, goodies, dressing, peeled potatoes. I guess it will be nice to not have to clean up the mess from it, but it just doesn't feel the same.
MIL called and said that we are going to be eating at a place called "Bananas". I am thinking that she is bananas for suggesting this place!
Oh what a tradition to instill in Leighanna. Eating Thanksgiving dinner at a restaurant called "Bananas" I think that she has a few screws loose!

Oh well, I did find out that I don't have to work tomorrow night, so at least I can enjoy the day off!

Have an enjoyable Thanksgiving DDA!

I think that you've caught the biggest news of late - Jennifer and the babies! and Glynis' grandmother. Let's see what else I can think of...

Jennifer and Virginia are doing great. She seems to be kicking the jaundice at last.

Theresa is looking for a new job. She got some of her grievances heard so it isn't quite as bad sticking it out there until something comes along, but she's still searching.

Tammi, her kids, herBob and his DD are going to WDW together in Dec.

Bernadette and Debbie just got back from trips to WDW. Bernadette has some wonderful pictures and her trip report is kind of spread throughout recent posts.

Amy, Elizabeth, Janet, Tammi, Kristine, Lyndsay, Jo and Vicki have trips coming up soon.

Chanon bought her house from her mom not too long ago.

Tom has been listing dresses on eBay and is doing pretty well. The holiday roll rush is probably slowing that down for now though.

Clare has been joining us a little lately and we're all so happy to see her! She is starting a new position at her bank very soon and is looking forward to it. They just got back from WDW recently.

Paula was at Disneyland recently and, according to her postcard, had a great time. Hopefully things with her stepdaughter are going well as we haven't heard an update recently.

Vicki and Chuck bought DVC this week and they are planning their first trip "home" for Dec 13-ish. Chuck got the bug to go back and things moved quickly!

Lyndsay needs to get packing as it is almost time for her wonderfully big trip!

Jo is keeping busy with work. Ramiro has done wonderfully this school year and was allowed to promote up to 8th grade and get back on track with his age-level.

Beth is crazy busy with school and the kids activities. She is considering cutting back her classes next year as working every day is getting to be too much.

Deb is being her usual super-woman self and creating wonderful birthdays for her boys.

Amy pops in from time to time with glimpses of her two cuties.

Elin is keeping busy at work. One of her students was recently selected to perform at some really big-deal thingy (that's the techincal term, don't ya know).

Marci has been really busy at work. The boys got great reports from school and have been keeping busy with sports.

Jen's grandfather is nearing the end of his battle with cancer. He is in hospice care at the hospital and they are doing their best to keep him comfortable.

Becky is keeping busy with work and running all over PA for meetings (well, maybe not that far ). She was in NYC last weekend and got a cool backstage tour of Radio City Music Hall.

Robyn is keeping up with her 3 cuties. Lucy had an ear infection this week so mom and dad are a little short on sleep.

Heidi is enjoying having her mom and sister living right across the street. Perfect location for all of them.

Terry has been working on getting her foot better and is hoping to avoid surgical treatments.

Stephanie is keeping us all laughing with tales of how Lightening McQueen isn't microwavable and the virtures of a child-lock microwave.

Karen is still looking for a job. She will be having surgery soon (or did it just recently happen) and is a little nervous about that, but we all know that she'll do great!

Anne Marie is enjoying her job at the Disney Store, but is hopefully remembering to bring some of the paycheck home instead of leaving it all in their registers. They recently had a good day in NYC after missing out on The Little Mermaid due to Day 1 of the stagehand strike.

Janet is luggage shopping and dealing with the joys of having girls call for her son. Of course, if the girl could learn to call before 9:45 PM! I'm sure it would go over better.

The news from our house is not much of anything. We get to head to Branson and the Christmas celebrations at Silver Dollar City this weekend so I'm excited about that. The weather is supposed to drop down to the 40s as well so I'm looking forward to a nice "Christmasy feeling" will the sights and sounds of the holiday surround us.

(I tried to cover everyone, but if I left you out I am so sorry! My brain is fading fast, but I didn't want to forget the request since I already had once today.)

Thanks for the up-date.
Tia
I have to admit I pop in once in a while.
Haven't been reading all pages.
Skim around here & there.
Also the board is driving me crazy being so ssssssssslow.

 

[tinknme]

Thank you!

Thanks,

Absolutely!

 

[PNO4TE]

Sure! I'll invite Elin and Kim too!

We call those pecan tassies here! I just finished making the pumpkin and pecan pies. Sorry, Heidi! They are both cooling. Also made the brine for the chickens! All set until tomorrow morning.

 

[UP Disney]

Eric decided to brave the grocery store. He said it "shouldn't be too bad" I think it's his way of saying thank you. I finally caved and let him buy his Weber gas grill today. He is

Ooh, a Weber grill. What version did he get? Chuck loves his weber grill.

 

[tinknme]

Why? Should I be worried about mine?

They actually canceled my reservation on the 26th w/out my knowledge!!!! Thankfully I didn't just show up...

 

[Brendita]

Have to do the happy happy dance.

We will be at walt Disney World.

Hope Dana is feeling better tomorrow
