Thanksgiving Bliss....

Most people in my household would rather have baked ham instead of turkey, sooooo we planned to ONLY have ham.  That didn't work because SOME people wanted turkey- sooooo we're having both.  The same scenario took place when we were deciding which pies to make, and we ended up making three instead of two.  ORIGINALLY, my wife and I said that we should probably go out to dinner and avoid the eighteen hours worth of effort for eighteen minutes of bliss.  The kids complained that they eat out all year long and REALLY treasure home cooking.  I couldn't argue with that, but we ARE paying the price in effort and holiday dollars!

Have a good and well deserved Thanksgiving Feast!

A man in Phoenix calls his son in New York two days before
Thanksgiving and says "I hate to ruin your day, but I have to
tell you that your mother and I are divorcing. Forty-five years
of misery is enough."

"Pop, what are you talking about?" the son demands.

"We can't stand the sight of each other any longer. We're
sick of each other, and I'm sick of talking about this, so you
call your sister in Chicago and tell her."

Frantic, the son calls his sister, who explodes on the phone.
"Like heck they're getting divorced," she shouts, "I'll take
care of this."

She calls Phoenix immediately, and screams at her father,
"You are NOT getting divorced. Don't do a single thing until I
get there. I'm calling my brother back, and we'll both be there
tomorrow. Until then, don't do a thing, DO YOU HEAR ME?"
and hangs up.

The old man hangs up his phone and turns to his wife. "Okay,"
he says, "they're coming for Thanksgiving and paying their
own way."
