Yesterday we had our Thanksgiving Dinner because my sister is going to Dayton for the races.
We had 14 people. The turkey, dressing, gravy, cranberry salad and mashed potatoes were from Publix, we just had to heat it up. The guests all brought sides and deserts.

We had:
Pole beans
steamed veggies
deviled eggs
corn casserole
garlic toast & dinner rolls
apple pie
peach pie
2 peach cobblers
vanilla ice cream for the pies
and Apple Tarts

I did NOT have seconds Smiler.

Activities for the day consisted of running out and doing a full days errands before noon. Going to Publix to pick up the food (I drove - not mother) and going up and down the stairs a hundred times. The room in the basement is the only place we have room for that many people.

There was me, my parents, dd, my nephew & his roommate, my best friend & her husband, my sister and her husband. Her husband's parents also came because they are also going to miss his family's dinner due to their trip to Daytona. And my cousin and his wife.

Mon-Wed of this week I have no plans. Thursday thru Sunday we will be having Thanksgiving with my in-laws. They are coming in from OH, Ark, Fla. MI, & South Georgia.
More about that next week Smiler

And I was still at 212 this morning Smiler

I don't mind, I think the idea is that you check in, accountability. I don't put my weight in...still can't get used to writing those numbers even as they grow lower. I'd be satisfied to know that I was checking in and being held accountable and cared about by someone.


It's never too late to get it right.
