Thanksgiving

So, I thought we were just going to be celebrating with just us this year since we don't have a car to travel to my hubby's family's house, but our neighbor (the wife is my hubby's cousin) are staying here too.  Now, we're going to celebrate together! It'll be all of our first time cooking everything ourselves because we always just went to a family member's house to eat and didn't need to cook anything. 

We'll be doing the ham, stuffing, potato salad, green bean casserole, and candied yams. They are doing the turkey, more stuffing, the dessert, and I'm not sure what else. 

I was thinking it was just going to feel like another day, but now I'm actually looking forward to it. :)

On my mind this week.

10 things on my mind this week.. in no particular order.

1. Looking for a car to buy. Who would have thought it would be SO HARD to find a decent car that runs with no mechanical problem and is in our price range? It is beyond frustrating and we are desperate.

2. Finding a washer/dryer. We have so much dirty laundry; it's not even funny. Having to get a ride and have money to get quarters, having to drag my kids with me to wash clothes, and with 5 of us, I can just never keep up. It's ridiculous.

3. Going home to Hawaii to visit! I just keep thinking about going back and hoping the weeks will just fly on by. I can't wait for so many things.

4. Thanksgiving.. wondering if we will celebrate or not.

5. Art and Crafts to do with the boys. I bought some finger paint, so I think we will be doing that this week.. Well, if I can get most of my school work squared away.

6. Crochet! I have a bunch of projects I am working on and projects I want to work on. hehe

7. Homework/School. I have papers to write, peer reviews to do, along with discussions and other assignments. I hate having homework always on the back of my mind when I'm trying to do family things and housework. It stresses me out.

8. Finding our cell phone. Ugh. :( I wish it would just pop up.

9. Errands I need to run and paperwork I have to fill out. Stuff for Tay's school, for hubby's school, and for the boys' doctor.

10. How fast my boys are growing :(
