			What's "not the same," Janet? 
 
Congrats Diana!!! What a wonderful surprise!  I remember when Jaci was Homecoming Queen, and so cute in that school show. Now, she will be a Mama! 
You are a very lucky woman!  So many babies, so much love! 
 
Linds, don't stress over work days.  Life is short....enjoy! I feel for you about the deer.  I hit one last year, but I only got it in the hip, and it ran off. There was NO damage to my car, so I figured I didn't hurt it much. Whew!  I felt sick though. 
 
I made Thanksgiving in my house!  Jessie made the stuffing and the veggies, and I made the turkey, potatoes, cranberry sauce, etc.  The kids and I were so excited, facebooking each other back and forth!  Kass woke up yersterday morning, and ran into Jessie, asking her if she called me yet to make sure I got up to make the turkey! 
 
The turkey came out perfect! That was s bit surprising since they so often are too dry.  I found a food thermometer, and that did the trick I think. Well, maybe the ton of butter I used in the stock and basted it with helped too! 
 
It was a wonderful day.  At the end, of course, Steve took some off the pleasure out of it, but I refuse to dwell on it.  
 
My dishwasher died two days ago, and then my sink was leaking from a pipe! 
I got the good paper plates so I wouldn't have to wash dishes.  We even used plastic forks and knives and cups!  There weren't too many dishes at the end, and I washed them in the bathroom sink.  Steve had rigged up the drainpipe in the kitchen so I could use the sink, but I really didn't want to take the chance of a flood. 
 
I was soooo tired after I finished cleaning up!  Jessie had put everything away already, and took tons of food home. It was a really good day! The kids were wonderful. 
 
I am going into Oneonta to Sears to pick out a new dishwasher.  On Black Friday!  Help!  I know what I want, but I would like to see what is on sale anyway, and see this Maytag I want. It got really good reviews. 
 
Gayle, I know you must miss Gary so much.  You are always in my thoughts.
