Well, when it was all said and done, we had a wonderful Thanksgiving. There were 25 people in attendance, enough food to feed a starving country and the ages ran from 4 months to 63 years. We had a really good time, and no one was offended by the dirtiness of my house. lol The 8 children in attendance had a ball seeing the chickens and playing with the dogs and cats and the bird.
Everyone was shocked that I didn't have paper plates or paper napkins. I did have to pull out a few pieces of plastic cutlery. lol It was really nice. My brother's (who .lives in Georgia) 3 boys came, and they usually don't. So that was a real blessing.
Folks started arriving around 11:30 and the last ones left around 6 PM. I am exhausted--in a really good way. I can't believe I'm still awake. lol I woke up this morning at 4:30, got up a bit and then came back to bed and slept another 45 minutes, woke up again. I was really not feeling well...my heart was racing and I was nauseous...worried me a little. I laid back down at 6:30 after the Irishman got up. Crazy. I took some Pepto Bismol and got myself dressed. Forcing myself to get up and get busy helped, but I was icky for a few hours. Feel like it's catching up to me again and so I think I'll go to bed.
I'll be back tomorrow. Happy Thanksgiving and hope yours was filled with food and family and friends and lotsa love...
