Turkey Recap

Well, I started my Thanksgiving vacation with a trip to the Dr. I failed my one hour glucose test by 3 points so I was asked to come in for the 3 hour glucose test. I was mentally dealing with my failure but someone forgot to tell me that the nurse would take my blood 4 times during the 3 hour test. 4 times!!! My family has a history of terrible veins. Nurses struggle on a regular basis to get blood out of our veins. Is that a weird family trait?? Well, after she struggled the first time, I spoke with the nurse in the nicest voice I could muster and explained my veins' shortcomings. She did much better the next three times. I guess if I failed, the Dr.'s office will call today or my next appt. is Wednesday, Dec. 3 so I guess I'll find out either way. Hopefully, I passed.

Thanksgiving Day was awesome!! We had lunch with my family. I don't know if I was really hungry or what? but the food was fantastic. Totally delicious!!! I went back for seconds and would have gone back for thirds had my stomach had any more room. Jillian was so good. She ate turkey, corn, cheese.

We then went over to Bryan's parents' house and had dinner with his family. Bryan and I have a deal.... I pig out at my family's house and he pigs out at his family dinner. That way nobody gets their feelings hurt. I was so full from lunch, I barely ate a thing.

Friday morning, my mom and I did some shopping. We hit the Gymboree sale and I got Bryan some stuff. Saturday, we went to see Australia. Bryan and I really liked it!

Sunday, Bryan put up our outside lights. That brings us to today. I am back at work, ready to go!!
