Another Thanksgiving

Hope you all had a good Thanksgiving. I did. Lots or relatives came. I warmed up the pre-packed food just like it said on the instructions and it was actually pretty good.

Family couldn't mind too much because they keep coming back every year. They stay for a while too. Five days or so. But I like everybody so its cool. That having been said I would be lying if I didn't say I sure do enjoy getting my house back when its done. Ain't nothin a loner likes more than being alone after they have been 'emersed in the populace' for a while.

Currently I am home by myself. Hubby took oldest son and his brother (now visiting from Cleveland) to a jazz brunch. I am home watching an old black and white movie with a bag of Double Stuff Oreo Cookies in my lap. Little guy is at a buddy's house. Needless to say I am in hog heaven. (and if I don't cut it out with these cookies I'm going to look like a hog as well!!)

But I believe in the occasional indulgence in an effort to balance out a usually well regualted life. Scheduled controlled bursts of ridiculous are not only gratifying but they work like an esacpe valve. I have another 2 hours or so to revel in my own begnign bad habits and I'll be all ready to return to order when they get back.. . . .

Maybe.
