Up before the crack of dawn here "M"..turkey had to be in oven by 5am..I've got everything done except the potatoes..cooking veggies a bit later and carving and fini another Thanksgiving behind me.

Weather is much the same here, oooh hardly a leaf on the front and side yard trees..off on drizzle, at one point last night I looked out to see if it was snowing..rain had a bit of texture but no snow yet!!!!

I've had a nice weekend so far..did groceries on Friday, sewed off on yesterday then this morning between chores, had 5 runners done out of 7 so far this week, I machine quilted another runner between prep this morning, plan on putting the binding on it shortly then clean the crafts room..as I've so many tables down here and little room in dining room I'll set up for everyone and that way nobody is eating on their lap..means more work carrying everything down but everyone helps so not a problem..now if I get get all the boys to do dishes is can do happy dance.. But as a mom/grandma, you say, leave it, I know where everything goes, easier for me to do it (what a lie) so this year will be no different. lol

Then, here and there I can sit and hand sew the binding on the 6th runner until family arrives.

One pie missing..I ate 1/2 of it since yesterday and if family soon doesn't arrive the other 1/2 will be gone. (and I wonder why I'm putting on the beef)

Couple of little things I need, should really take a run to Foodland a few streets away

Enjoy the 50th "M"..could they not have done is yesterday??? hmmm breaks up a lot of Thanksgiving plans
