Hi Gail, Colleen, Barbara, and all…..
Gail….I knew something was worn, because you did not post yesterday. I am afraid for Colleen too. Have not heard anything from her. I hope the shot for her went well- think it is today.
I hope you get better fast, and that Greg does not get worst. there is nothing worst than being sick on a holiday.
The way you managed taking care of the grands yesterday was funny. I hope you can get to the doctor, and do the shopping without getting worst. Prayers coming your may, my friend!

Today, I am grateful to be able to do the things I wanted to do for this holiday.

Colleen- I hope you have just been too busy to post, and that nothing is wrong.

Barbara- I hope you are still up-right, and also that nothing is wrong at your place. I know you had those flickering lights, and I hope when you got them to come, that was all you needed.

Girls- I am posting the pics of yesterday’s pies. today Amanda is coming to help, and I am extremely grateful for that, because the back is hurting. I did a little too much the last couple of days, and the Minnions were all busy with work, and Marissa with work and school.

Amanda will be doing the rest of the prep with me- getting out the last serving pieces, set the table, and get all the vegies, rolls, and corn bread prepped to bake tomorrow. the entire kitchen table will be full of the lock n lock bowls, and the ingredients…..LOL My intention is to just grab the bowl, and put it together tomorrow am. We even peel the potato’s and put them in cold water- one will be cut, and one bowl not, for the mashed and cheesy potato’s.

I hope you all get help to make things easier. I know Colleen’s daughter will be there today, and I am so happy she will have that special time with her. Barbara, maybe your DIL will really rise to the occasion this year. You never know.

Families being families, at this moment, Steph, and the kids will not be here tomorrow. We had a bit of a disagreement, and we are both still mad at each other. I am refusing to give in, so I have to eat my words…..choose your battles, nothing is worth continuing an argument, and life is too short for this crap. I know, as well as we all do, that once the words are out of your mouth, they cannot be put back. It was mostly over her not showing up for Halloween. I have not spoken to her since the day after Halloween. All the others are so mad at her for it, they are not getting in the middle. This has taken on a life of it’s own. I did reach out to Jhonny, and said I understood they were not coming, and he did no answer, so I let it be. Do not want to put him in the middle. I also sent her and Jhonny, the text’s with the pics of the pies. No response. It is what it is, as I always say. She has inherited my stubborn streak.

Happy prep day, everyone!
