Hello, how was your Thanksgiving? We had a nice long weekend. Thursday was
spent at the inlaws and we had a nice day. It was just our immediate group this
year, Todd’s parents, Todd’s brother and his wife, and the 2 of us. We watched the Macy’s parade while I made the
hashbrown casserole and I grabbed a Starbucks earlier that morning. I loved not having to rush and just
appreciate the day.
I did not take part of any Black Friday shopping. There’s just not anything that we have to
have that is worth long lines and crazy hours.
On Friday, Todd and I went to our annual movie outing together and saw
Bohemian Rhapsody. Have any of you seen
it yet? I genuinely loved it!! I thought it was well done and holy cow- the guy
that played Freddie Mercury and the guy who played Brian May were SOOO
good! After I saw the movie, I went
online to read more about it. The lead guy learned how to play piano and he
also sang but they mostly dubbed in Freddie’s voice for the songs.
This is one of my fave Queen songs: Show must go on!
On Saturday, we got the Christmas tree out of storage and
got the lights on it and we put the decorations on it Sunday after church. Saturday evening, I got to join my cousin and
her 2 daughters to see the Nutcracker in Dallas. It was Outstanding and I really enjoyed it.
At one point in a scene, they had fake snow fall from the ceiling into the
audience. Great special effects for a
Ballet!
When we first entered the Winspear Opera House, the backdrop
was kinda creepy if you really looked at the whole thing. I loved it of course because it had the eerie
factor like Halloween.
Sunday night , the 6 of us got together again at an Italian restaurant to celebrate my mother n law's birthday. It was fun evening and a nice way to end the holiday weekend. And then , it was time to get back into the work mode. I’ve been really busy this week training
classes and I’m off again tomorrow and Friday to prepare for my junk show I do
twice a year. I am not ready this time.
Yall, that work trip to St Louis for 10 days seriously put me so behind
on everything. I am just going to wing
it and hope I at least break even for the price of the entry fee. Wish me luck!!
