Enough Already!!!

So last night the Teenager started with our friendly little stomach bug, and in the middle of the night Mark started. Mark is still sleeping, he was up a lot last night. The teenager is feeling a bit better. he's eating some eggs right now. I can't remember the last time the teenager was that sick. I think it must have been when he was not yet a teenager. At least this should be the last of it. We've all been sick now so this bug can GO AWAY!!!

I've been working all week on getting my house deep cleaned for Thanksgiving since I'll be hosting this year. It's been a couple of years since we've had Thanksgiving here and I'm really looking forward to it. I like afternoon Thanksgiving dinner, like around 2 or 3. I like Thanksgiving football on TV and in the backyard. Our family tradition is to go see a Christmas movie in the evening, so this year we're planning on The Santa Clause 3. Friday morning we'll be up early, hoping to find an MP3 player pretty cheap somewhere, and then Mark will work on our Christmas lights until it's too dark to see and we'll go out to dinner with my mom. Saturday my mom will come over and she and the kids and I will gorge on leftovers while we watch the local rival college football game. Mark and his dad will be going to the game. I love Thanksgiving weekend, especially when we have Thanksgiving dinner here. I'm really looking forward to it!

I've also worked on the quilt a bit. I've got part of the top put together. If Mark moves to the couch today I may get some more done, but I can't sew while he's sleeping since the machine is in our room. And the Princess and I have been working on Thanksgiving crafts. Today? Napkin rings!

And? I'm really craving carrot cake! Why? who knows. But, do you have a good recipe???
