WooHoo!
Today I went into work because i was feeling better and I'm so glad I did! I got a free turkey! I was so disappointed that I couldn't do my Thanksgiving because we were broke. Well, now that we have a turkey, we can do it! I invited my friend Mary and her fiance for dinner. We never have people over, so I'm so glad that Geo said yes. We all went out to dinner for her birthday in September, so he knows her as well. I'm just so happy I have a turkey. it's thawing in the fridge so it's ready to brine on Thursday. We just have to go shopping for a few things at the store tomorrow and then we will be ready! We already have potatoes, milk, eggs, green bean casserole stuff, and yams. It's going to be nice :)
Other than that, my neck has been hurting me all day. I don't know why, other than possibly sleeping wrong. I know that my back hurting is normal, but my neck is something new. I'm pretty sure that it's just sleeping wrong. It feels better when I put heat on it, so I'm lying in bed with my Bed Buddy- a sock-like thing filled with rice that you heat up in the microwave. It feels so good on my neck.
I even cleaned today! There was a bunch of stuff that had to be done that I got done today. I vacuumed the floors, put away a ton of groceries, cleaned up trash, took out the trash and boxes... got a lot done. I still have cleaning to do before Mary and her fiance come over. I need to do the bathroom.. the bedroom and office are going to be off limits since they are a wreck. I don't have *that* much time to clean. Then on Thursday we are going to the in-laws for Thanksgiving dinner. I'm sure it will be good, Geo's stepmother makes good mashed potatoes. Okay, well, it's late and I want to lie down, so I will talk to y'all tomorrow!

Hey great about the turkey, what would thanks giving be without turkey...your neck could be just a trapped nerve through sleeping wrong, i used to get it all the time, or if ya been stressed could also be a contributing factor...heat packs are good.
Wonderful surprise in getting the turkey!
That is so great they gave you a turkey!! Very nice of them. And having friends over for dinner will be so nice!
Theres lots of great recipes that you can use the left over turkey for too! Casseroles and stuff like that.... and healthy too. If we have left overs i freeze some so on a night i dont feel like cooking i can just take it out and warm it up.
Hope your neck pain gets better............. my hand is still hurting me pretty bad. If the heat feels good i would keep using it and maybe take some advil or something to try to decrease any inflammation... take it easy.
Hugggzzzzz hope you have a great Thanksgiving!
