• Do you have any left overs??

  

  We just returned from Christabelle and Jason’s place. They made turkeee soop. It was very very yummy.
  I gave them the rest of our turkee on Thankies giving day.

  In the fridge, I have one potato, a medium size pot of cranberry sauce, one roll, a bit of gravy and some vegetable casserole that Jason made.
  a half of a stick of butter.
  That is it.

  Oh, maybe I do have a bit of turkee salad and I think a tiny piece of turkee in a rubbermade container.

  I have half a pot of Edy’s peppermint icecream too.
  Oh, and one slice of pound cake

  and three cookies.

  I think that is really it

  

  Blizzie and I went shopping today.  We went to the mall and looked at dresses. We are going to a wedding on December 27th. Christina’s best college friend is getting married and we are all going. Christina is going to be a bridesmaid. Man, she has a pretty dress.

  So, Blizzie and I went to the mall and tried on a bunch of dresses. I am tiny. I wear a size 6 at least. Blizzie is teeeeensy and shorty-short. She is a pip-squeek.
  She has to wear “extra-petite” for sure.

  I tried on this pretty bloo dress. I am not sure about this dress. It must have been made for me becuase I cannot possibly figure out how anyone else could fit into this thing. Okay, it had a side zipper, so I unzipped it and Oh Blizzie and I did so much complete disrobing at every store to try on dresses…. anyhow, so I stepped into the dress and pulled it up… it would not go up any higher than my thighs. I do not have a big butt or thunder thighs by any stretch of the imagination. This dress was not going up. So I stepped out of it and pulled it over my head, squeeeezed through the tiny waist hole with the side zipper unzipped and pulled it over my non-boobs. Then I zipped it. It fit really nice but the chest part was a bit baggy. This was a size 6. Now if I were to try on a 4… I am not even sure I could get into the dress…. I did not buy a dress today. I have time.
  Blizzie has to get a dress because she has to go back to the compound tomorrow  [she will not return to her mother until the 20th of december]… or I think she is going back very early Monday because hubby feels like driving her early and her class is not until 10:00. So we looked at dresses and then the sales lady at Lord and Taylor called the other store at the mall in Fairfax and they had a smaller dress, so we are going to check them out tomorrow. We are going to skip church and go to the mall….

  Nordstrom’s has ugly dresses, and skanky ones. There was nothing, not one item of clothing in that store that was even slightly pretty. It was all bad.
  Macy’s had some interesting stuff.

  How was your Thanksgiving?

  Ours was sooo fun. We had the gathering here. I did the turk and all that and my mom was in charge of cookies. Joyce (my sister) Chrystabelle and Jason (the boyfriend) were bringing everything else.
  It was a nice day. It started out beautiful and sunny. The temp reached 76 degrees by 1:00!!!!! Then this funny black cloud came in… no rain, just wind a lot of heavy wind, then the temp dropped to 42 degrees and freeeeeezing heavy large tree branch breaking wind by 4:00. Amazing. The electricity went out at 3:00 but we were done eating. I could have made coffee but oh well, then we packed up everything and went to the apartment and had dessert there. It is only two miles away but they had electricity. Then my parents drove home.
  I think they would have liked to spend the night, but my mommie is such a terrible sleeper now, she needs her own bed to sleep even if she sleeps badly. Also my mom still has a lot of anxiety with this irregular heartbeat. Poor thing. She is doing fine but tires easily. I think she might be a bit depressed.
  I am going to see them on Thursday. I think I am going to see them more often.
  They need me.

  My sister. She is a loon. She compares everything. She is going to mess up Andrei one day.
  She is soooo loud and she talks constantly about Andrei and how shy he is and how he is not always like that but then sometimes he is and it bothers her and how so and so does this and that and how Andrei does not do that blahblahblah. The only thing I could say was “Joyce do not worry too much. Just let him be a 9 year old kid”
  Sheeeeesh. Andrei is such a sweet boy. I am so sorry he has a loon mom.
  Jason really hit it off well with him. Christina kind of asked Joyce to consider bringing Andrei over for the week-end sometimes.
  Sometimes I am sort of happy that Joyce works a full time job and has him in various day care situations.
  She is a very critical mother.

  This is all I have to say tonight.
  I think I will take a shower now and put on something snuggly and jump in bed.
  Tomorrow, more shopping.

  I am looking forward to Monday for skating, but not seeing Blizzkin go back to the college….
  OH!!! wow. She is taking private classical lessons. Gah!  Oh wowie.
  She is playing Schumann’s Papillons. All 12 parts. Oh gosh. Shocking… no I mean  Schocking.
  I need to practice more.

  Be well.
  I am not around xanga much.
  Please e-mail me or message me when crappy stuff is going on with you!!
  I need to know. It makes me very sad when I come on here and find out all sorts of terrible things.
  Be well, I mean it.
  

  
  
  Thanksgiving comes to us out of the prehistoric dimness,
  universal to
  all ages and all faiths. 
  At whatever straws we must grasp,
  there is
  always a time for gratitude and new beginnings.
