I missed my mom so very much. Other than wanting her here with us, it was a wonderful day. I cooked a simple, small dinner. We had a turkey breast, apple bacon stuffing, corn, mashed potatoes with gravy and cranberry sauce. I also made two pumpkin pies. We ate around 12:30. T helped me clean up, and then we watched some football while M played in her playroom. We lounged on the couches all afternoon, getting random drive-by's from M... (these would be random, unsolicited hugs and kisses.) T napped off and on, and so did I. It was a wonderfully lazy afternoon. We finally got moving and went over to my cousin's house for dinner around 6. It was delicious, and we rolled on home around 8. We got M to bed after she watched the Charlie Brown Thanksgiving special. T and I watched some football. I wanted to finish watching the game, but sometime during the 3rd qtr. I was toast. I went on up to bed, and slept SO good.
This morning, at around 7:40 (she slept in! WOO!), M came into our room to wake us. I sat up, and could see that it was snowing! We all ran to the window like idiots LOL. It came down pretty good for a bit, but did not stick and soon switched over to just rain. I tried to take a picture or two, but the snow did not show up on my camera! Maybe next time!
It is easy to get stuck on all that is wrong with life. It is easy to sit around and wallow in self pity. I don't have time to be like that any more. I am doing my best to focus on what I have and not on what I DON'T have. Life is too short for bullshit. I have wasted too much time being depressed.
Remind me of that the next time that I start whining, mmkay?

I'm happy you had such a good day. My day was absent of all children. I MISSED the children. I missed their activity because kids are to be WATCHED and junk. they give entertainment.
