Thanksgiving

So, it has been a while since I posted. My excuse, poor excuse, is that I didn't have pictures to blog with. Well, I still don't have pictures but blogging is why past due.

A lot of things have happened in the Watts household since my last blog. I have become quite the little house wife, except I have a full time job. Being a house wife can be very tiring. Last week I cooked dinner for Eric's wonderful family. So, I had to make sure everything was spic and span, and that I cooked something that even I could pull off. I decided to go with chili, chips, and cheese, baked potatoes, and corn bread. I think I did a pretty good job if I say so myself. Then, this past weekend I had the ladies in my family over for an Arbonne party. So, once again cooking and cleaning. I don't know how women with children and full time jobs do it. My hats off to you all.

I also took time to go see New Moon with a good friend. I won't spend too much time on it but I really enjoyed it. It was so much better than the first movie. This is all I am going to write because my blog will become nothing but vampires and werewolves.

Each Thanksgiving I usually have at least two meals but this year my mom and dad went to Jacksonville to visit my brother and sister-in-law. Eric and I enjoyed a wonderful Thanksgiving dinner at Mike and Melissa's. Melissa really out did herself this year. It was absolutely delicious.

I was going to to do ALL of my shopping that following Friday but God had other plans for me. I got to a late start - 10am. I usually start around 6 but being by myself it was a lot easier to stay in the bed. I was ready to leave and then my car wouldn't start. My car has not been my best friend the past semester (I am a teacher-my life is in semesters). I had to have it towed once after school on a Friday and recently the turn signal clicker won't turn off. Talk about annoying. The actual blinking light will turn off but not the noise you car makes to let you know that your blinker is off. I have been listening to my radio really loud the past few weeks. This time I think it is once again the fuel pump. Eric's wonderful dad is going to come look at it tomorrow to see if I need to get it towed.

Eric was much more calm about the car not cranking then I thought he would be. I often underestimate him. He told me I should be thankful to have a car to be fixed. I guess he is right. Well, I know he is right. So, here is to carpooling once again.
