Thursday

Hello, Internets! (I stole that from Jana's blog because I thought it was funny.)

Only 2 seconds to post so it's list time!

1. Getting back in touch with old friends on Facebook is super fun and also kind of emotional (in a good way!). I did not expect that!

2. We're having our Thanksgiving dinner this Sunday, and we're having Jamie's parents and Jason and Leah over. I'm very pleased with our menu which I'll post later. The girlies and I are going to decorate with Mexican fiesta colors and it will be Fun (do you hear that, Claudia?!?) instead of traditional autumn colors because that's what I'm in the mood for at the moment. I will, as usual, try to get the girls to dress as pilgrims or turkeys and they will probably shoot me down as usual. So rude!

3. Claudia retained her first chair position in band.

4. Sammy's having fun writing her nanowrimo novel again this month.

5. Jordan's trying out for The Sound of Music soon.

6. Jamie and I are going crazy with church committee stuff but in a good way.

7. Amy and Marinda are safe from the fires this time.

8. I'm afraid that chocolate AND cinnamon are migraine triggers so my life is over AND I HOPE YOU'RE ALL HAPPY! (sorry, I have to blame someone and it looks like it's going to be you. Yes, you.)

9. This morning as I was chatting with one of my suburban acquaintenances, one of Sammy's friends' mom, I found out she and her husband are liberals. And seriously, I have tons of friends of every opinion, religion, orientation, etc. and etc., but it's nice to find like-mindedness in the Indianapolis burbs, if only so we can whine about the abstinence-only sex ed in our district.
