Oh what a meal.  The dinner was as perfect as was the conversation.  We have plenty of leftovers!!  I sickened Carol and Shannon with my turkey deconstruction technique.  They eventually took the bird from me.  My mom would have been so disappointed with the amount of meat they made me leave on the bone.

We had such fun today, always silly when Jessica is around.  It’s gold when Gregg and Jess go at each other.  Everyone had a great sense of humor and lots of double intendres were flying.  At one point my side hurt.  The kids were a dream.  We didn’t have one single episode all day.  It is so nice when they ll get along and no one get hurts.

We are suppose to walk over to the outlet mall later tonight.  The Polo store is open at midnight.  We were thinking of taking our Baileys and hitting the Starbucks at the mall and ”pub crawling” for some deals.  Yeah, right now Jess and I are the only ones ready but we still have 2 1/2 hours to go.  Our party is dwindling, or is passing out the more PC thing to say? 

So far the deals I have seen in the circulars are not that great.  Please if anyone finds any great deals tomorrow please tell us.  I almost think this is an urban legend.  Now I can vouch for the day after Xmas sales.  Neimans and Saks are some places that you can get SERIOUS sales the day after xmas.  Of course I was always shopping for baby clothes.  I can’t remember the last time I bought something for myself that wasn’t for attending a wedding.  Can I get an Amen from the other new mothers!

I hope everyone had a GREAT thanksgiving.  We just want to say we are so thankful to be back in Texas and back with great friends(not that any friends in Detroit sucked but hey come visit us already!).

Hey here we are!  Shannon is cooking away LOL!  Carol is watching and I am trying to find my drink.  Jessica is along for moral support.  We are having a blast here talking and cooking.  I think the Lions are losing but we are really ready for the Cowboy game.

The kids have been a dream.  They are soo good and quiet ahhhh.  And the guys aren’t bad either.

It is nice and chilly.  Of course I say that tongue in cheek(hate the cold).  We had a cold front come in last night.  At 2 it was 84 degrees and at 5 it was 50 degrees.  BRRRRRR

I hope all is well in Detroit.  I miss the Wednesday night at Union Street and watching the parade set up.  I especially miss running around the parade course and climbing on the floats.  Amatuer night downtown was one of my most favorite memories.

OK This is my first time with my own blog.  This is going to be a work in progress.  Sometimes I will just come on here to ramble about the latest going ons in my mind.  LIKE>>>>>

I know Gregg thinks I am crazy but I am truly mad.  I hate what my Court TV has become.  I use to watch that channel all day long.  Sure I had kids to tend to but I could leave it on through out the day and catch pieces here and catch up on cases by listening to the commentators talk.  Plus some of those people were down right hilarious(Vinnie Politan, Ashleigh Banfield and Nancy Grace).  Now here I am in Central time and all live coverage is over by 2:00.  That means any cases that are taking place in CA.  don’t even start until 11 CST.  Don’t even get me started on this Star Jones show.  OHHHHH and I am so sick of their programming to lowest common idiot.  How many “most shocking” shows are they going to put on.  There is already another channel that caters to the mindless Cops drivel and that is FOX.  I have written many letters to the station, especially during the Phil Spector Trial. 

So I saw that they are rebranding the station starting Jan. 1, 2008.  Wow they finally heard me.  Others must have been complaining too.  They are slowly teasing me with this new “true television programming” that will start Jan. 1, 2008.  The anticiapation was killing me.  Finally they are going back to their roots and show more trial coverage.  I saw the first big commercial for their “true tv” and I am about to erase the preset from my remote.  As if it isn’t bad enough that they are going to show more “true” COPS and such but they are branding it by saying……. now get ready for this because I’m sure some big ad firm on Madison Avenue came up with this line…..”it’s not reality tv,(pause for dramatic effect) it’s acutality tv.”  Yea that is really it.

Court TV has taught me a lot.  I will still watch the Forensic Files and Investigators but I think I am going to have to switch over to Discovery and watch Dr. G Medical Examiner now.

Oh and Court TV has also taught me never to befriend nor allow any of my other friends date any man with the last name Peterson.  Yeah, they like to kill their wives.  Heck, two out of the top three famous Petersons thought they were so good at it that they killed two wives!!

PS  MOM I don’t have time to spel check so stop it.  I am lucky if I can rip one of these off before the kids wake.

Woo Hoo I am on the internet and ready to burn up this site!  Stay tuned.
