I love Thanksgiving holiday time and not because I like to shop. I stay as far away from the malls as possible during the Christmas holiday thanks to the e-tailers. I love that I get a 4 day weekend and really only have to spend one day with family. Actually, it's more that I get to spend time with David's side of the family. They're really nice, but my family is - well - LOUD and fun.
But, as I'm sitting at the kitchen counter typing this, I realize that the counter is a MESS! You cannot eve see the counter because it's covered with all this junk. Papers, packaged food, boxes, keys, toys, etc. You name it and it's probably on my kitchen counter. I swear that this spot was clean a couple of days ago. Actually, it was thanks to David that the counter was clean. I'm sure that I had something to do with the current state of the counter, but only SOME of it.
* SIGH * I guess Thanksgiving now means cleaning. Everyday that I'm a parent I realize that the holidays and my life in general takes on new meaning.



Happy Thanksgiving!
