What did you do today? Part II

I do everything on my list except shovel, since is so cold out. Also make plans my friend decorate Christmas tree next weekend. Also I cook supper, organise DVD shelves and invent excellent new drink! Lol.
 
I have now finally made my grocery list and will go to the store this evening.
 
I have to make mine too. I got elected to host Thanksgiving this year. Oh joy. :lol: Last time I made a turkey, I had it facing up the wrong way. No wonder why it didn't cook right. I can only hope this year is better :) (p.s. I am FABULOUS with green beans, potatoes, ham, etc. so we know THAT is all coming out perfect. Just say a prayer for the turkey, please.)
 
^^^Don't forget to remove the little bag inside before you cook the turkey! :lol:

That's how our first Thanksgiving as a married couple began. With both sides of the family there. :)

Then there was the time the Border Collie ate the center of a marble sheet cake. (Everyone decided to just eat the edges anyway. That was my mother in law's idea. Nobody died.)
 
I actually consider myself a creative cook, and do well. But the basics, like a turkey? Forget it.
 
Got my shopping done. Feel like I forgot some things since it was only $54.

Not tooting my own horn here, but so far *knock on wood* I have not made a mistake with any of my turkeys. Family always liked them except for MIL. She wants it to be cooked a lot longer and claims I made it too juicy. I cook as long as the time should be and use my meat thermometer and I love juicy meat. My mother is surprised that I do so well with turkey since I never learned to cook it from her. I hated turkey until after I had kids.
 
Due to bum hip/pain pills I stayed in bed for most of the day. I didn't get up until 5pm. I'll be unable to sleep now...great. Although I'm not supposed to return to work until tuesday I'm going in monday morning. I really, really do not look forward to work this week. Not only because of my hip but I really, really just do not want to see a certain person that'll be there. I'm not sure why I dread seeing this person I just know that I do. Can't pinpoint it. The poor person gives me literal anxiety and panic attacks. It IS NOT FUN. :Ohno:

I've been told it's intution. Yeah,:pissed: well I wish I had been able to see that I would have injured my hip in advance. :) ok, ok. I'm outta here. Back to bed. Pissy mood! :blah:
 
OMG, just had a terrif idea for a new thread!!! Thanksgiving horror stories! I am starting it now, LOL!

I feel the same shock whenever I am able to walk out of Walmart spending less than $70.
 
dentist appointment this morning. 2 fresh cavities filled, and 1 filling was redone. Now my right side of the face is numb, including my right ear. ahhhhh!
 
Ate breakfast, did some programming, had a lecture, ate lunch, had a computer exercise, made security updates in Windows, had dinner, and now writing this.
 
Nice coffee break with one of my honey's ASL classmates who brought me Caribou.
 
Had my weekly ASL lesson today. Oh, my head feels like mush! Today my teacher practiced fingerspelling, but he picked out words from Web MD magazine!
 
Arranged a family dinner for tomorrow, arranged to visit my mother in law on Wednesday, was visited by my daughter and my youngest granddaughter.
Getting ready to go out to dinner a little later.

Pleasant day so far. Just taking a little break now to check up on all of you! :P
