My parents didn't do this initially and the divorce was hard on me.<BR/><BR/>Now we all have love fests with my dad's wife and my mom going off in a corner with some wine to trash talk my dad. Ahh, good times!!!<BR/><BR/>Have a happy day!Devonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05563150483422859462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7407016858777887859.post-36486980178520020752008-11-26T11:16:00.000-06:002008-11-26T11:16:00.000-06:00Oh, I think you should utilize your gift of gab an...Oh, I think you should utilize your gift of gab and come up with something completely outrageous to be thankful for. For instance, come to the table dressed like a queen complete with tiara and scepter. Since I'm handing out tips here, be sure to keep your wine or other libation completely disguised in a nondescript container. My sister in law puts the vodka in the bottle of diet coke. This way, the Arabic relatives don't know she is consuming alcoholic beverages. Anyways, think about this; it's your opportunity to be unique and sparkle. <BR/><BR/>Have a great Thanksgiving. BTW, I love brined turkey.Rudeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17889298704039071473noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7407016858777887859.post-63347668342868162092008-11-26T09:09:00.000-06:002008-11-26T09:09:00.000-06:00Just don't do all the work yourself - before or af...Just don't do all the work yourself - before or after.<BR/><BR/>And put out the feelers so you can get an idea of what your Xmas is going to be like. <BR/><BR/>You know I'm going to be away after this - possibly a 2 day break in between shows and them I'm gone until the middle of January.<BR/><BR/>I just want you to know that you will be in my thoughts as you struggle along and rave against the world. Be at peace with yourself RC. You are special. You didn't deserve getting this dumped on you but I can see that it was supposed to be what happened to make you even stronger. I again get the picture of an Amazon Warrior. And it makes me smile.aimshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12685252628734838159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7407016858777887859.post-4980848393799045492008-11-26T06:18:00.000-06:002008-11-26T06:18:00.000-06:00I hope the day goes well for you.

And yes, I know it has seeds so should be a fruit, but so does a cucumber and an aubergine (eggplant to you guys), and we don't make sweet pies out of those... as far as I know.Potty Mummyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04751869800592294891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7407016858777887859.post-75244293187958648742008-11-26T01:51:00.000-06:002008-11-26T01:51:00.000-06:00WE don't have Thanksgiving in The Netherlands, not...WE don't have Thanksgiving in The Netherlands, not that we aren't grateful people. I wouldn't do a round of what I am grateful for either. It would get embarrassing. What I am grateful for and what I am angry about lie very close together. I haven't quite sorted it out. I wish you and the boys a Happy Thanksgiving and enjoy the multitude of food. Are you having pumpkin pie? That was always my favorite. <BR/><BR/>IreneAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7407016858777887859.post-23760644632323850452008-11-25T22:33:00.000-06:002008-11-25T22:33:00.000-06:00Wise choice, skip the what I am thankful for.
