Talking Hope you all had a good Thanksgiving!

The family and I were at my parents yesterday and had our Thanksgiving since my wife had to work a 24 today.

Spent the day hanging out here with the dog and cat watching TV and messing with the computer.

Since we celebrated yesterday, I kept forgetting that the actual holiday was today and most things were closed.

Tomarrows black Friday. Yay. I wonder if as many people will line up to go shopping at 3am as there were last year.

Just shoved the last straggler out. We have a big get-together every Friday so it wasn't that unusual of an event--just that we had to put a turkey in at 7am. We have a lot to be thankful for--lots of healthy people and very few dark clouds in our sky.

I love deviled eggs. My dad makes them 8-12 dozen at a time and gives a good bit of it away to friends and family. I think I've had 7 or 8 already today. That included with everything else I've had today, I don't think I need to eat for another 2 days or so.

The funny thing about Black Friday is, everyone you ask if they are going, and everyone says NO WAY!!!!!!! Yet there are still the huge lines everywhere.
