I’m sitting here with wet hair, wearing my scrubs, trying to work up the energy to go upstairs and finish getting ready for work.  I’m working till 6:30am tomorrow.  After I get home, we’re hopping in the car and making the 3 hour trek south to have Thanksgiving with my family.  I’m excited to see people that I haven’t seen in over a year – namely, some of my sisters and brothers-in-law, nieces, and nephews.  I got home from work this morning around 6:30 and started right in on making my delicious broccoli slaw salad.  I plan to bring it for Thanksgiving tomorrow, and I’ve already warned Chris (and myself) against eating any for dinner tonight.  It’s so good that one serving just isn’t enough!

I don’t have any plans to go shopping on Black Friday.  I know that some people really get into it, but I never have.  I prefer to shop online and find free shipping deals, as well as using Ebates.  I might consider venturing into the shopping frenzy if we were in the market for a new TV or other electronics, but it’s not worth it this year!

Another reason why I’m looking forward to Thanksgiving is that it means that I have five days off.  There should be a little bit of a halo surrounding those words, because the fact that I was able to have 5 days in a row off work while not having to use vacation time is just shy of miraculous.  I’m thankful to my co-worker M who asked me to trade days with her – without that, I would have to be back at work Friday night.  Yuck.

Alright, I’m starting to get a chill from sitting here with damp hair.  I hope that you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving, wherever you are and whatever your plans are 🙂
