Thanksgiving and other News

It’s already the Sunday after Thanksgiving, but I still feel like I’m full. The holiday turned out great! I hung out across the street with the neighbors and we had our little Turkey Day potluck. We had turkey, stuffing, yams, ham, mashed potatoes, cornbread, a spinach and pecan salad, all kinds of appetizers, and a few desserts including pumpkin pie, of course.

I think there were 8 of us all together but still had copious amounts of leftovers. I gotta say I was a bit disappointed with the stuffing since it wasn’t homemade…but who am I to complain. There was a TON of other great stuff. One of my neighbors, Ben, even made lil’ smokie weenies wrapped in bacon and sprinkled with brown sugar, or as I like to call it…a coronary on a toothpick. Delicious though!

Anyways, that’s enough about food for now. Like I said, I’m still full from all the eating on Thanksgiving. Afterwards, I just watched the Philadephia Eagles kick the crap out of the Arizona Cardinals and took my stuffed self to bed around 930.

The puppies finally got their first round of shots and exams yesterday . I only spent $18 on each, which I was grateful for. I took them to a low-cost clinic they hold at the animal feed and supply store right across the street. They’re all really healthy and ready to leave anytime. They’re going out into the yard for the first time today when it warms up a little more. I can’t wait to see how they handle it. Two of them peed themselves at the vet visit yesterday because they were so scared.

Finally, in my last news bit of the day….I’m going to get off my ass and call the dentist tomorrow to schedule a consultation so I can get the ball rolling on getting my invisaligns. I decided against metal braces simply because I don’t want the discomfort and hassle. I would probably hate the way they look also. The last dentist I went to in Vegas said my teeth would probably be straight within 9 months to a year with the Invisalign. I can’t wait! I know I shouldn’t care but I guess the one insult that bothers me the most is when someone says anything about my teeth. I wonder what it will be after they’re fixed. My height??

Other than all of that, just working a lot like usual. Things seem to have picked up recently though, especially since the heat broke but we’ll see how it goes around Christmas. It was a little slower than average last year during the holidays. I can’t believe it’s right around the corner once again! Where the hell is time going these days???
