Popping the top button open on my jeans, I'm taking this short break at the computer to recover from a Thanksgiving-worthy dinner. Why? It's Tuesday. Need a better reason? Don't have one. For no particular reason, I baked a 13-lb turkey today and made gravy, mashed potatoes and stuffing to go with it. I even went the extra mile and cracked a brand-spankin'-new can of cranberries.
The best part? We don't have to share the leftovers.
Hem and haw all you want. Call me rude, I don't care. The fact of the matter is that you'd be just as excited at the prospect of hoarding your turkey dinner leftovers...the difference is that I said it out loud.
We have enough packed Gladware in the fridge to feed our family for a week. Good thing, too, 'cause it's a busy one.
Yesterday we got a pass...no occupational therapy since Sakina is on vacation. Julie was here this morning, and The Princess did a great job. Tomorrow we have play group followed by developmental therapy at home in the afternoon. Thursday: Julie will be back. Friday: OT at home with the new 2x/mo therapist.
Add in the facts that Friday is my mom's birthday and we're T-minus 12 days and counting until I start school full-time, and it's about to get crazy around here! Maybe cooking for a whole week wasn't such a bad idea after all.
Yum! Happy Belated Birthday to Mom!
