my thanksgiving was...

Thanksgiving was ok. In the morning I went to my best friend KW's house to have breakfast with her parents. KW was in Miami still and didn't come to town until about 3pm. After I chatted with her parents for a while I went to my sister SF's house to begin cooking. Together we made one whole turkey, two turkey breasts, green bean casserole, squash casserole, candied yams, collard greens, mashed potatoes, stuffing, rolls and gravy. For dessert I made pecan pie, peanut butter pie, cheescake brownies, and we bought apple and pumpkin pies. Yummy Yummyness. It was nice to sit around with family for a while but I was home by about 6pm becasue I can't be there toooo long. ^_^ I like being sane, thank you very much! I never did get to see KW while she was in town though which was a bummer. So that was my T-day.

I feel AMAZING! I just spent about and hour at the gym in my apt. complex. It was great. I feel so good that I actually got through the hour without quitting! Go me! I was on the treadmill for a straight 25 minutes. I did as many pushups and situps that I could (will not saw exactly how many... it's a small number but it worked for me:) I used the leg station thinger and arm thinger (don't you love my equipment savvy?) And I walked home. I did a load of laundrey, took a shower, brushed and flossed my teeth and now I am posting. It's amazing how just getting out and doing some excercise can change your mood and outlook so much. I am ready to begin my dieting. Ooooh, just in time for T-day. oops. Well hey this way I will be a lil more ready for all that turkey and stuffing and mashed taters and squash casserole. ^_^

Turkey Plans

With Thanksgiving steadily approaching, I did the unthinkable. I offered to play Hostess. "What were you thinking, Cammy?"
I was thinking:
1. Dad usually does the Thanksgiving Dinner (TD)... He now lives in a bus. I am not eating TD in a bus!
2. NL's family is not having a dinner because of issues involving $15,000, a cheerleading competition and a 38+ year old momma's boy. Let's just not go here....
3. Originally I had planned to Co-host with my Older sis SD and we would use her new (big) home (and kitchen.) She is now going to NC to be with he husband's family.
4. Therefore, I stepped up and decided to host TD at NL's and my one bedroom apartment.

Well... If I want turkey, this seems to be the only way! And I actually have to work on Thanksgiving 6:30pm-3am. -_-
