Anyone have plans next week for Thanksgiving?
I'll be in Florida. My mother will be cooking turkey and all. I won't touch the stuffing as I can't stand it.

Lots and lots of TV-watching and eating. I'll be going to my mother-in-law's house this year. With six children under 8 years old, it should be interesting!

Getting ready to work Black Friday. This will be my 3rd Black Friday, but the first time I'll actually be working on the sales floor. :eek: (last 2 years, I was still a backroom employee so management kept me situated in the back... But this year I'm not in the backroom anymore, my position has me out on the sales floor)

Oh, also I won't be home for Thanksgiving this year. I have to work Thanksgiving as well. Which is fine with me - this is what I asked for, after all.

Thanksgiving at my parents as usual. (I hope the Turkey gets cooked since their oven is kinda ****ed-up now).

I'll be working next Saturday...not looking forward to it.

Haha, sounds like our Christmas. Usually five kids under the age of five. For Thanksgiving though, its usually pretty quiet. Just a few of us get together out in Cleveland for dinner, well, twelve of us and visit with each other. Then my parents and sister and I come back home, pull out Christmas decorations while watching a Christmas movie and then go out for black friday.

Dinner with the family. Hopefully a friend of mine will by having his annual party at his place this year. (Last year he didnt).

Watching the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade and having the usual Turkey
dinner with Dad and Claire. Mom will still be down in Jacksonville, Florida taking
care of my Aunt Novella who still has problems related to her cancer.

On Tuesday my brother and I are going with our dad to have our Thanksgiving with him since we don't see him on Thanksgiving anymore. Then on Thursday I am going over to my Mother's to spend
time with her. I will probably watch the Macey's Day Parade like I always try to do this time of year, catch up with my family, and get my fill of Turkey, corn, mash potatos, green beans, pumpkin pie and cheesecake.

I'm going to be by myself but that's fine by me - I'll be seeing some friends later in the evening.

We're going to my mothers house for Thanksgiving. I also have to work Black Friday & they put me on the "dreaded" breakfast shift. That's the worst shift for getting good tips.

We're spending it at my sister and brother-in-law's house, like we usually do. My sister is a really good cook, so I'm looking forward to it. :D

It'll just be my husband and I so we're going to a really nice restaurant with an incredible view of the Seattle skyline. They have an amazing Thanksgiving buffet. Then we'll go home and probably fall asleep! LOL

Got my assignment for Black Friday... I have to be in to work by 8pm on Thanksgiving (I work nights anyway but I usually go in at 10pm). That's a minimum of 12 hours I'll be working - yikes!

I'm staying in town because I have a sinus infection. Depending on how I feel Thursday I might have dinner with my mother's friend Jodi who is in town and her daughter Marne.

I hope everyone has a nice Thanksgiving.

The military base where my wife works has a really nice Thanksgiving dinner every year; so we will go to that. It's just the two of us this year.

For a couple of years it's just been me and mom. So we went out for dinner. But this year my niece and her family are headed over. So we will have a home cooked Thanksgiving dinner.

For the last two days my Turkey has been marinating in what's essentially a modified Bloody Mary Mix. (Sherry-Based instead of Vodka) Tomorrow it will be Roasted SLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW and served to my Cousins and I.

Trust me, this bird will

KICK @$$!!! :D
