Just like what Cousin Eddie said.

I’m so excited to have a few days to settle down with a cup of coffee & my family.

That’s the beauty of Thanksgiving, no? That & those tiny marshmallows on top of sweet potato casserole.

My cousin Muff flew in last night & praise be, the tile & toilet were finished in the guest bathroom.  Although the chaos in our house in the past few days has been unimagineable between my father-in-law staying with a us for a few days for another dental surgery & me trying to get potatoes peeled & the dog tracking mud all over the house & Doug having to make a round-trip to Winston.  Life, man. Just with a National Lampoon’s twist.  But the tile is complete! The shitters work!

Pretty sure that if we have to go around the table & state what we’re thankful for, “Working shitters!” will be the first thing that pops out of my mouth & then we’ll have to catch The Momma in her dead faint.

I wish y’all the best & most merry Thanksgiving. May it be full of turkey comas & bear hugs from friends that you love.  I have a Huggies post scheduled but for the most part, I plan to go a little radio silent until next week (mostly due to my fingers being busy shoving pumpkin pie into my face-parts).  I am so thankful for each & every one of you that invites me into your life through this blog & the friendships we’ve made over it.

p.s. this happened on monday night when doug opened the front door.  well played, money pit. well played.
