Happy Thanksgiving!

I am in the midst of Thanksgivingmania. I am cooking for twelve. I just baked my pies and started the stuffing, had some wine  and completely lost all motivation to do any more.

On a different note I had to get a Tuberculosis test on Monday so I can get approved to do part time work for my School district. When I went to get my arm checked today to make sure I did not have TB the nurse who looked at it said:

"Oh, your arm is not supposed to look like that.  I'm going to get the other nurse to look at it"

WHAT!!

The other nurse comes by and says

"Hmmm, it looks like a bruise but we may need to get the other nurse to look at it"

By this time I am convinced I have TB and how could I have no recognized the symptoms.

Finally the THIRD nurse comes by and examines me and finally tells me I do not have TB.

So this Thanksgiving I am Thankful that I do not have Tuberculosis.

I hope you all have a great Holiday!!

I also need to thank my Ella for my beautiful Thanksgiving pillow she made in art class. It is my new favorite thing.

 

I'm coming down from my sugar high

What a week. Halloween dance, Candy, Halloween parade, Candy, Trick or Treating, Candy, pass out cold from exhaustion and sugar shock.

When I took the kids trick or treating it really hit me how fast it all goes. Everyone telling you how much they grew since last year. How many more Halloweens will they want me to come with them? Some people like to go in big groups, I just love walking around with them myself. Taking in as much of this special holiday as I can. A holiday where one kid really thinks he is a ninja and the other one feels so pretty when the sun shines on her sequined costume.
