Oh man I am busting at the seams to play xmas music and put up decorations. I'm waiting until Friday, but it's so hard! I think perhaps I could get away with putting the music on tomorrow night while I bake pies??? DH won't be there so I think I can get away with it.....
I am SO excited for Thanksgiving though. It's my most favorite holiday ever.
partiallysunny I hate that stuff. Like when A wakes up in the middle of the night and I'm in sitting with her and she starts waving over my shoulder or into a dark part of her room. Stop creeping me out!
I'm very meh about Thanksgiving. I'm looking forward to going out with my friends tomorrow night, and then being home for 3 days in a row with no extra family around.
Doglove! I was making an apple pie last night for a Friendsgiving tonight and was going to play Christmas music. Thoughts of the teasing H would give me stopped me and I opted for another station.
I did put my tree up yesterday. No decorations but I just want to sit and watch TV with the Christmas lights on. It's one of my favorite holiday things. H gave me the side eye for doing it. Then said you did it with out me. I then had to point out in the 10 years that we've been together 9 with a tree. He has NEVER EVER put up anything. He does the outside. I do the inside.
What happened with the kitty, PS? Did you talk to the owner?
No, I haven't seen her. And when she is home, she always has visitors (and I'd rather not go over all "I'm stealing your cat" when she has other people there).
We bring the cat in the house to warm up from time to time. Sometime she's cold and sometimes she's warm when she comes over. I think the owner has a box for them to sleep in on her porch, but I can't tell.
My H is also not yet sold on the idea. Its only a matter of time.
Last night I wanted to wrap some of the Christmas presents I have already and Boyfriend was like "no, that is offensive"
He is super picky about holiday timing. He never wants to get a tree until the 10th!! I usually bug him until we get one around the 3rd.
Oh there would be hell to pay in my house. We ALWAYS get the tree the day after Thanksgiving. It's our tradition - or MY tradition. We may have to wait until later in the weekend this year because we're adopting out Max sometime, but I think that will be on Saturday or Sunday. So I'm probably not going to let it stop me!!

My Uncle used to make everyone in his house get up at the ass crack of dawn to go and pick out a Christmas tree--every year. My cousins are married with houses of their own and they make a big family trip out of it every year now.

Is your uncle Clark Griswald?
As soon as I read that I am picturing the opening of Christmas Vacation.

I think I really need that cauliflower recipe that some one posted last Thanksgiving... Today is my last opportunity to go grocery shopping, and my mom has put me in charge of a vegetable to go with the turkey on Thursday.
