Thankful for 5 SWEET days off

I have five glorious days off work. Five very, very much anticipated days off. I am super excited.

I am feeling better just in time to enjoy my vacation.

Work had gotten to the point I really needed a break. Desperately.

So, I am overjoyed that I have a million things that I want to do in five days, and I am pretty sure it does not matter if I don't do many of them. It's the planning that makes it fun.

My daughter wants to make a craft project for her Granny, who recently fell and gave us a scare. I plan on being super thankful as I sit next to her and eat turkey together Thursday.

My son is meeting a group of friends to play soccer tonight, and then has plans to watch a movie tomorrow morning in his PJ's. I plan on surprising my kids with a trip to the movies to see Arthur Christmas and eating popcorn with BUTTER until I feel sick.

I am gonna eat some turkey, and cook my first rib roast ever for my family tomorrow night. Fingers crossed.

We are putting out Christmas decorations and getting our live tree.

We are playing some games. I can't wait!

I am planning on reading something, and hopefully something in the form of a book.

I am gonna exercise and enjoy the weather as much as possible.

I may stay up really, insanely late and go shopping before I go to bed. Maybe.

I plan on dealing with some of this pent up stress and anxiety I have been carrying around for a couple weeks, and really enjoying time with my family and friends.

WHAT are YOU planning on doing with your Thanksgiving week?

I am so glad you 5 days of Thanksgiving include a trip home!

I plan to feast my eyes on YOU and the rest of my family.

I'm going to enjoy family and food tomorrow and then I don't really have anything planned out. George and Peter will be hunting Friday and Saturday, so I will enjoy some quiet time at home, possibly putting out Christmas decorations. I had a dr. appt. in Flo-town this morning and ordinarily I would have done some Christmas shopping but I'm trying not to drive much in heavy traffic until I get my driver side mirror replaced (it's on order and should be here next week). Peter and I came back to town, ate lunch out and actually stopped somewhere and bought two Christmas presents before heading to the grocery store to pick up some food essentials to get us thru.

All this to say...Happy Thanksgiving! I'm thankful for friends like you! Enjoy your rest and relaxation time!
