Random Thanksgiving Nothings

It's Thanksgiving break and I'm as giddy as a 3rd grader. School's out for a whole week and I'm grinning ear to ear. In a weird way, that just means I need to devote more time to work for this week. Plus we have two more group projects due in three weeks.

It's hard to believe this semester is almost over. 25% of my classes will be done Dec. 14. It's fun to look back at that post when I said I was ready to quit. I'm glad you all didn't let me.

We had a busy week here. Corey had surgery on Monday which was called a Tympanomastoidectomy. His left ear has a Cholesteatoma, which is skin that finds its way into the middle ear and damages the bones. Corey's right ear also had fluid in the middle ear so he got a tube for that. He came through with flying colors and spent the last three days resting at home.

Larry & I gave ourselves an early Christmas present. We finally treated ourselves to an HD flat screen. You have no idea how cool it is to play Guitar Hero on this. (Well some of you do.)

I'm off to go watch the Macy's parade and eat my Pillsbury Orange Sweet Rolls, which has become our Turkey day tradition. Then my son and his moms will join us for dinner. AND it's supposed to be in the mid 60's. What better way to spend Thanksgiving Day.

Enjoy this long weekend and thank YOU for being a part of my life.

Happy Thanksgiving to the entire family! Glad Corey's surgery went well . . . still scary when they are that age. I think we are buying a new telly for Christmas, too. The old one has been acting a bit wonky as of late.

Happy thanksgiving! Thank you for sharing your life with us!

Let me know how you like the t.v. We had dinner at Mr. Chili's uncle's house, and he's got an ENORMOUS flat screen t.v. Watching football was a treat there, and I'm seriously thinking of making a major electronics purchase on behalf of Santa this year...

Happy Thanksgiving to you!

Our HDTV was the best purchase we've made since, well, forever.

Ah - big screen goodness. I've become so damn spoiled - I hate watching TV on a small screen now. I don't know how Guitar Hero is on it (I will after Xmas), but Halo and the like rule - especially when the 5.1 surround kicks in.

Happy late Thanksgiving. I've been a little lax with the blog reading.

I feel like I'm missing the party. I need a HD flat screen. But I don't even have an iPod yet. (Don't tell anyone--I need to maintain my hip image.

I can't believe we missed this, even after you'd told us the date and all. I'm glad to hear that Corey and y'all came through the surgery with flying colors. Give him a kiss for us.
