So what's everyone else doing this Thursday? Does anyone have to work? I don't have to work *whew*

This is the first year I'll have NO family to spend Thanksgiving with. My parents & brother live in AZ & all my relatives live in Cali. My sister lives here but she is going w/ her husband to visit his family for Thanksgiving. Luckily my friend said I could spend it w/ her & her kids. She really doesn't have any family either...so I guess we can be each others family! If it wasn't for her I'd be spending thanksgiving alone!

My parents are visiting from Vancouver, WA yay! Hey I was up there in like October did a bunch of shopping... Tax Free gotta love it. =)

I work for like... 20 minutes...

I work at a vet and if there is ANY animal in the clinic someone has to come in and check up on it/feed it/water it/walk it whatever.

It makes me soooo mad though cuz I havta work on Christmas... I know its only like 20 minutes, but its the fact that I havta work and my boss gets to enjoy his holiday and not worry about checking up on things that makes me mad... He shouldnt allow animals to stay in the clinic over holidays... Sorry I just like totally ranted about nothing

but besides that... Im having thanksgiving with my big family its gonna be pretty sweet...

my thanksgiving gonna be at home cleaning the whole apartment... and maybe lotsa diaper changing

i will be going over the parent's place early to use the garage to clean my car. who knows what after that!

My parents arent doing thanksgiving cuz itd be just my bro, me and my parents and my bro is a vegetarian so theres no point.

So this year im going to my boyfriends house. Im a lil intimidated cuz theres supposed to be about 20 family members. YIKES! but im making banana bread to take over.

Its always stormy here in the seattle area on thanksgiving and I dont expect this one to be any different so hopefully the power wont go out or anything.

>

why didnt you call me punk! lol

Since i live out in the middle of the country...and all my family lives out here too, we have the ultimate Redeck thanksgiving.


About 30 of us gather at my grandma's little ranch and there's the ultimate country feast. lol. mashed potatoes (or mashed a'taters as my grandma says it) ham, turkey, rolls, corn, cornbread, chicken, macaroni and cheese, dressing, etc.

Its pretty funny. Grandpa and uncles are usually arguing...place is covered in cigar smoke, people are out back shooting guns.


Oh yeah, last year...my 80 year old aunt got mad because she was told what time it all started wrong, and stormed off in her buick through the yard and tore down my grandpa's mole trap. He was really pissed.


Gotta love my redneck family. lol.

probably eating chinese food and throwing some darts

im goin to visit family down in the Twin Cites, but only after i get done with work. I live on a turkey farm so theres work 365 days a year

I'll be at my aunts house watching the awkward moments because my dads family doesn't really like my mom

Going to my aunts house. Having everyone go there. so.. like a family reunion? lol.. there will be like 60 of us there..

going to new hamshire with my famly to my grandparents and quadriding after dinner

I'm heading over to my boss' house. Most of the AMCITs will probably get together at the Marine house for a potluck turkey dinner.

I traded for a day off last week. Just me and another guy working.
My boss gave us $50.00 for lunch though. I wanted to bbq
and keep the cash but they need a reciept.

My family goes on vacation on all holidays that usually require preparing a meal because mom does NOT cook... I decided to stay home and enjoy not having to deal with their high drama antics and got some traditional turkey day fare for myself and my roomates if they are around

10 of my friends including myself are heading to the NYC Macy's parade Although it might rain though... if worse comes to worse we might just have a Wii Sport morning. Then spend time with the family
