Happy Thanksgiving 2009- A Day Early!

Morning all..its the day before Thanksgiving. It's about 9:00am and house is quite...that's because they are all sleeping! Yes..both kids are home, Caitlin got home around 4:00 yesterday afternoon and Sean arrived around 8:30pm last night!
First update on medical side...I was only able to get my chemo treatment (Ixempra) on Friday. They would not give me the Avastin because it thins your blood and promotes bleeding and they were concerned about the stitches in my mouth from the teeth removal. I was happy but at least I got the Chemo. Been a tough few days, mouth is still very sore and trying to stay on top of the body aches of the Chemo. I'm not in work at all this week all though checking email here and there each morning to try and stay on top of things. Definitely shown I function much better when I push my self to keep moving....staying home is not for me!
Yesterday I headed down to Mom's early afternoon...she had all 3 boys...CJ, Zack & Micheal! Spent to the afternoon with them...it was fun...we drew Turkeys using their hands as a template. CJ enjoyed, Zach and Michael still a little too young but it was fun! Caitlin came straight to my mom's and the boys were so happy to see her! I had tried all afternoon to get Zack to say "Auntie" and he kept calling me Nana...Caitlin walked in the door and he ran to her saying Auntie!! I guess he associates auntie with younger people and Nana with older!!!!
Here are the plans for the next few days....today Caitlin and I grocery shopping then to mom in the afternoon to start the cooking and help her out. Dinner at mom's tomorrow around 2:00pm and then mom, Caitlin and I heading up to Bernie's sisters in Gilford hopefully around 6:00pm or so. We are going to go shopping at the outlets for the Midnight madness sale! Caitlin is working Friday night at the Wang Center and Mom has to work Saturday morning so we'll head home on Friday afternoon. Both Bernie and Sean are working from Midnight Thanksgiving night until noon on Friday. They are working security at Walmart for all those crazy shoppers! Sound like they are all going to be working throughout the weekend at this security stuff! Hopefully the weekend will be quite, of as quite as it can be with everyone home!
To end, Happy Thanksgiving to all. Never thought too much in prior years about this day but this year I really am....I am thankful for my life and for all the caring people that are a part of it! AS we enter the holiday season, I'm not going to take any day for granted and enjoy each and every day! I suggest everyone do the same! Life is short and enjoy it!
Happy Thanksgiving
