Happy Thanksgiving!!

Well, Thanksgiving was pretty uneventful. I got to sleep in a bit longer than usual, watched the parade, let the dogs out, and then headed to my parents. After all of the lazy arses over there finally got dressed, we headed to a local restaurant for our Thanksgiving lunch. Yes, my parents aren't ones to cook much at all. We're having the real Thanksgiving on Sunday with my grandparents, aunts, uncles, etc. I'm pretty proud of myself...I didn't overeat even though we went to a buffet and limited myself to one plate of food and salad. Afterwards, we did some shopping...even Walmart was open today. I always thought ol' Walton never wanted his store to be open on holidays....but I guess since he's dead and with the economy the way it is, they didn't want to miss out on any extra money. Tonight, my mom is making a list of everywhere I have to go tomorrow for her. It's always good to have a strategy when having to deal with zillions of other crazy shoppers. I'm not thrilled about going...my mom has to work....so one of my sisters, who has no experience with this crazy shopping day, is tagging along with me. I'm going to put those walkie talkies I won last week at work to good use :) If I don't post again tomorrow, I most likely got trampled at Target!!!

Still figuring out the template idea...we'll see if I do one myself or do the linkware thingy before I invest money into having someone cool create one. Stay tuned...
