Turkey Day

We're hosting Thanksgiving at our house.  For my in-laws.  Ma and Pa King  were supposed to come, but poor old Pa King is laid up in the hospital after spine surgery #4.  No turkey for you!  Just kidding.  He's struggling, but hopefully this is going to help decrease his pain and keep him mobile.  I will put him in a tryptophan coma next year.

So, the real reason we're hosting Thanksgiving?  Because my mother-in-law doesn't do Thanksgiving like my Mom does.  Shhhhhhhhhh, don't tell.  The first year I ate with them it was cold turkey and peas from a can.  Last year it was hot turkey, but no stuffing.

Cold turkey, canned peas, and no stuffing?!?!

There should be a law.

Of course, come tomorrow evening I may be eating humble pie.

We shall see.

Lazy Sundays

Jason and Luke go to church.

I sleep in.

Then I watch a movie or tv shows that they don't watch. 

It is glorious.

Most of the time, when they get back, I haven't even showered yet.

It's now a day of chores and preparation.  I figure I have to take it slow, because these days, Sunday hosts the best night of television!  The Walking Dead, Homeland, Boardwalk Empire and, well... Breaking Amish. 

Don't you judge me.
