Thanksgiving Day

Made all the food ahead of time
Just throw it on a plate and microwave it
Started out with green bean casserole
Moved onto mashed potatoes and campbell's brown gravy
A little cranberry sauce while I watch Astronaut Snoopy
Spongebob balloon and many others
All flying close to the ground because of high winds
I get a call from Mom while I'm eating turkey
My nephew wants to eat Chinese, but they're closed
Only McDonald's is open
So Mom says they will figure something out later
I tell her I have to eat right now so I eat at Mickey D's
When I get there she says they're going to McDonald's
Which I had already done
So I find out the reason they want to eat in Platteville
Is because my nephew is wanted by the law in Iowa
Meanwhile his son wants some real turkey at his mom's in Cassville
His don't want to work dad can't drive him because of his three DWIs
So I go from that mess and visit my Dad at the nursing home
While he sleeps, I watch TV and play Press Your Luck on my Nintendo DS
I drive home and play games and watch The Office Christmas reruns
Have some more Thanksgiving food and call it a day
Hope you had a good Thanksgiving!

godsprincessonline today!
So let me get this straight - so you ate turkey twice and McDonald's once? WOW - I only had one meal that day. Was not able to go out as broke in shingles so brother brought me a plate of food which I was thankful for. Sounds like you had an interesting day to say the least. I just had my company all day but sometimes that is a good thing!
