How was your Thanksgiving and how is your Thanksgiving weekend going?

Asked by jca2 (16884points) 1 week ago

How was Thanksgiving for you? What are you doing for the weekend?

We went to NYC for two nights, and stayed at a club that someone in my family belongs to. We had dinner there Wednesday night, Thanksgiving dinner and drinks Thursday, and met family for lunch at a restaurant outside Grand Central on Friday, and then headed home. It was a fun and busy four days. I always feel like I would be just as happy to stay home and relax, and I would be, but I also enjoy my time with my family.

Today I am going to some craft fairs in CT with my daughter. We’re getting ready to go soon. We’re not early birds so if we’re out by noon that’s good.

How about you?

We had a lovely Thanksgiving dinner with friends (first time with them) with a lot of jollity and silliness. My friend’s relationship with her mom can be strained at times, so my kiddo and I decided to make sure it didn’t go that way, and we succeeded masterfully.

We are considering hiring ourselves out as professional Mother Buffers. ;-)

Lots of relaxing and goofing quietly for the rest of the weekend.

Two years ago I tore my achilles tendon and had to have surgery. Last year I reinjured it and had to wear a boot for a while and take steroids. Injured it again on Tuesday and my foot/ankle guy is out of the office this week so I’m hobbling. Luckily I was able to make an appt with him for Wed Dec 4th and I have a few steroids left. I can’t take NSAIDS so steroids are the only thing that help with the pain. Needless to say I didn’t cook my cornish hen with all the trimmings. 8(

I spent the past three days with the most important people in my life. My father, husband and three sons. I am blessed.

My husband and I had Thanksgiving dinner with friends (a couple) and a new friend of theirs that they met on a cruise.

Friday I did some work and in the afternoon I subbed for a friend’s zumba class.

Saturday I did my regular zoom call, and then Saturday night my husband and I went to listen to a band that I have wanted him to see for a few months, and they were great! I met someone in the crowd who I think could wind up being a new friend. Afterwards, we unexpectedly decided to go to a Japanese restaurant, it was like a real date, we had a great night.

Sunday was my usual zumba in the morning, and then relaxed and watched TV with my husband and also did a few hours of work.
