I feel like a really shitty wife. My mom lives closer so I went to visit her earlier as a test run and it didn't go well so I went home instead of continuing on to FIL's house for dinner. I feel like I'm disappointing H and FIL by not being there and I know that I should just suck it up and go, but it's almost an hour drive each way and I'm worried that I won't make it that long without a bathroom. (TMI?)

Don't feel guilty katespade, you can't help that you're not feeling well!
I'm about to go to bed. We had a good time at H's uncle's! I was disappointed the stuffing had mushrooms in it (H has repeatedly told him he doesn't eat mushrooms, and they used to make a special one just for his spoiled cousin, but this year they didn't even do that!) but otherwise the food was very good. GMIL made some sort of corn bake thing that was actually really good! I usually like to mix my corn with my potatoes, but this worked! H's uncles were doing Irish car bombs and I was a bit jealous, haha. Next year?
I hope you get to feeling better katespade. No reason to feel guilty.
DH and I worked at the house a bit and then came home and had leftovers and watched a movie. I'm about ready for bed. Hoping I have a better nights sleep tonight. Meeting up with my mom to shop sometime tomorrow but not sure when.
Ugh, I appear to be ending Thanksgiving with either food poisoning or some kind of stomach bug. Either way, I wish I was home right now I just want to curl up in my own bed
No need to feel guilty katespade. Feel better soon!
I had a nice relaxing day at my house doing a bit of cleaning and Internet shopping! Waiting til H gets off work then braving the crowds together just for a bit to see if I get my winter coat! I'll be dead tired tomorrow but oh well!
katespade and megkat Hope you guys are feeling better today.
Yesterday we watched a bunch of episodes from the HBO series "Hung". It was available on Demand for free, so we decided to give it a try. It's incredibly weird, about a high school basketball coach that gets down on his luck and decides that being a prostitute is the answer.
Thanks ladies! It's been a rough 24 hours but I think I'm finally on the upswing. The one advantage to not being home is that MIL watched A for me all day, because DH was sick too.
We had our Thanksgiving dinner today and it went well besides the 2 people who didn't show up. Called their house number and "they were sleeping." It was 6pm on a weekend, they don't work weekends. One of our other guest says his car wasn't home when they went past. How nice! At least it's extra leftovers and DH still enjoyed his birthday party.
DH woke up in the middle of the night violently ill. He has several food intolerances (dairy, gluten, sugar, etc.) and can manage okay most the time as long as he only eats things in small doses and doesn't overindulge. Well, of course he went way overboard. He looks just awful and said it all started at about 2 am. Poor DH. All he can do now is ride it out and watch closer after that.
Unfortunately we had pictures scheduled for today. I sent a text to our girl to see if we can reschedule for next weekend. That will make any Christmas cards we send out pretty late, but not really anything we can do about that now.
