Not sure if it's available in the us, but I'm drinking a very nice easy Sauvignon (vegan cagoldi!) that I can recommend to you girls! Best thing about it, it was very inexpensive 😉.

Hi, morning all. It's Thanksgiving weekend here so we are headed my Aunts house, hopefully someone there understands how to eat in shifts so I can enjoy all the amazing food while it's still hot. Baba is taking B overnight so it'll be calm the next couple days. MH goes back to work Tuesday, so i'm sure tomorrow will be filled with last minute errands, since ya know 2 months 'just went sooo fast'. 😐 But has he gotten a haircut yet!? He has. Good point, maybe I should be praising his efforts thus far and, as per, deal with his crankiness. You know like housewife style circa 19 fucking 59. If it's not clear, we're fighting. Cool. Happy thanksgiving cranky husband.

I'm so sorry, vino and joelies. I hate stressful Sundays like that. MH has decided that he has to do work today. He's off tomorrow, so he could do it tonight after the kids go to bed, but instead he's been in the office on and off since 830 this morning, I think he thinks hecan take tonight off and rest, but there are paint touch ups in our future.

This might be a dumb question, vino, but what are traditional Canadian Thanksgiving foods? Anything different than what we typically have here?

Not a dumb question; IME it is based on your heritage, so with us being Ukrainian we fill up on carbs and cream. Dilled/creamed boiled carrots, turkey, mashed potatoes, cabbage rolls, perogies, meatballs and gravy, a couple different salads, fresh white buns, stuffing and for dessert usually a couple pies and some squares. We say screw the fruit, the day is ruined already 😉

They should really sell margaritas here. A margarita sounds so good. I bring wine to the zoo in a coffee thermos. If you can believe it, it was too hot for wine. Our zoo sells beer and I almost drank one. That’s how hot I was.

We finally got home. I'm pretty sure Dh retaliated how done I was and when he got home he immediately helped unpack, empty the dishwasher and fold laundry. Usually he plops right on the couch while I run around likes crazy person. He also wants Chilis takeout tonight. I'm not complaining!

Hi hi - almost time to get ready for the wedding. MOTY and I haven't even tried this dress on N yet, hope it fits! Waffle House is catering the wedding (lol), so this should be interesting.. as will if N will wear her baby ear protectors, my guess is no. Also the 2 nursing friendly dresses I have are super lame, so not feeling great about my look tonight.

Lue woke up 10min before we had to go to a wedding yesterday and I had no clue what she was going to wear and didn't want to go through her closet while she slept. I wouldn't say it ended up being her best look, but it worked haha

MH took the kids to the cider mill and I've been cleaning, showering and de-germing the house. Oh, and binge watching Netflix. Mostly binge watching Netflix.

Must be today's theme. I'm also pissed at dh. He made some stupid choices last night and just yelled at me in the car on the way to his grandpa's party. I'm sitting in the car with a sleeping J while he's inside. Hopefully he stays out so I don't have to deal with his family when I'm in a pissy mood.

Cleaned out the 10 year old's closet. He had 1 pair of pants that fit and like 3 long sleeve shirts. I dragged him shopping which he hates but we found 6 pairs of pants and 9 shirts so it's a start. Bought T pants too but came home to him covered in dirt in the yard so I could try them on him yet. Still need to food shop but I'm so tired. I wish the Shoprite from home people didn't mess up every single time I have used them.

@nam, I don't mind the storyline bc I like Amelia (I know I'm one of the few ) and want her to not only have more screen time, but reconnect with Owen. But it does feel like an easy way out for the writers to fix the erratic character development they've given Amelia over the years. I also don't like that this is the second brain "issue" they've given the neurosurgeon . I don't know if you watch private practice so I don't want to spoil anything.
