I admit, I'm very sorry for your loss, Allie. I admit, this Thanksgiving had its challenges. My sister & I were going to cook at my mom's - it's my sister's first without her husband (and her boys' first without their dad). I can't believe it's been a year already (tonight) since her husband died. I admit, my sister had a very bad flu all week, and could not make it to dinner :( I admit, the Mister & I picked up the boys and took them to my mom's, and this also meant I cooked all of thanksgiving dinner at my Mom's. I admit my Mom is very finicky about people in her kitchen, so it was difficult. I admit, my brother stopped by for an hour, long enough to hurl some insults at me, so that was fun. I admit, a friend had inspired me to go on a "Walk of Gratitude" yesterday, so I did, and the Mister joined me, and it was good to re-focus myself, since I was starting to feel uptight. I admit, I was really glad to have my nephews - they had a good time and really enjoy hanging out with the Mister, which makes me feel good. He's good with them. I admit, the Mister's house is finally in escrow, so we'll be looking at houses again this weekend and hopefully making an offer within the week.
