What are you doing for Thanksgiving

[SuperFleetwood]

Hey Ledgies!

So what are you all doing for thanksgiving 10'?

[MissLadyLoki]

On Thursday, my obnoxious family from Queens is coming over and, as usual, I'm gonna hide in my room from the chaos of my aunt (she's my mom's sister and one of the nastiest, most biggoted people I know).

On Friday, I have to go up to Connecticut to visit my other aunt, who's my dad's sister. These days, I've come to tolerate her much more than my other aunt, but I'll also be meeting my cousin's baby boy too.

Me? Eat a lot of food and enjoy the two days off from work, but moan about having to work Saturday and Sunday.

That's not much better than me having to work Friday :distress: At least we don't have to deal with Cassie's aunt(s) :D

I don't know if I'll be home for Thanksgiving anymore. My mom flipped a lid.

So I may be chilling in a dorm room eating top ramen.... we'll see.

Be thankful none of you have to deal with on 2 different days 2 very different people in 2 very different places that are both my parents' respective sisters. Come to think of it, I can take my CT aunt, as long as she doesn't cook (you probably all know about the crunchy baked ziti story), but my Queens aunt has gotten so biggoted you don't wanna know. Hell, I will only say some of the stuff via PM if you want.

EDIT: And I want that turkey!

The last several years have been extremely stressful when going to my parent's house for the holidays... mainly because I have an out of control addict brother. So this year I'm just staying in Texas and am having a peaceful, wonderful holiday with just my other half, myself, and our puppy dog. We've ordered a Thanksgiving meal from the grocery store, so we're just going to throw it all in the oven and keep it a stress free day! :laugh: I just can't wait... Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays, and I'm finally reclaiming it! :woohoo:

The bf's dad is coming into town and we'll have dinner with him and bf's mom & sister. And we're running in the Turkey Trot that morning.

I don't deal with my bio-relations anymore, and the last 5 Turkey Days & Xmases without them have been the happiest and most stress-free I've ever had.

Thursday night at midnight is my 21st birthday :D I'm staying in Boston with my favorite people in the world, my gay best friend is making a Thanksgiving dinner, and we're going out.

AHH I'm coming off of a perfect weekend this past weekend, I have one class this week (tomorrow at 11), and then I head into town to be with them on Tuesday night. This holidy is going to be amazing. CANNOTWAIT.

[HejiraNYC]

^^ Happy birthday! Hopefully you won't go out and get stupid drink at some t*tty bar (not that I would know about these things, of course :p ). Actually I remember going out for dinner, drinking the largest Long Island iced tea ever made and then laughing inappropriately at an awkwardly Anglicized Japanese anime movie. I don't remember too much after that. :eek:

For T-day, it will be a repeat of the last few years: parents come up, we go shopping around the city, we drive out to my house on Long Island, they complain about my pathetic life, we rake leaves, they cook, we go shopping (they pay for everything!) and then I drop them off at Penn Station on Sunday night. No matter how old I get, I always end up feeling like a bratty, insecure teenager by the end of the long weekend. I wonder why!

Hope all you Ledgies have a great Thanksgiving.

My plans? Who knows?

I forgot all about it. Skipping it this year. Along with Christmas. ;)

Good for you! I'm skipping Christmas this year as well and CAN'T WAIT!! :blob2: :woohoo:

[mylittledemon]

I'm still putting up a tree... but no gifts for anyone (except maybe a toy run for kids who dont get toys) That sort of thing. :nod:

Brandon, THIS is the way. My aunt and cousin and I, finally got the rest of the family on this plan, two years ago.

Know what? I don't wanna have to go buy 15 $20 presents, that no one really wants, anyway. And I don't want those presents, either. I make good money, and I buy what I want.
"Your presence, is all the presents, I require". Thank you.

Your a little late.

Well we don't have Thanksgiving in New Zealand anyway so I don't blame you..but don't skip christmas!!!

[DavidMn]

I'll be at over at my mom's with our family. There will be about 5 people there so it's going to be pretty intimate.:)

[DavidMn]

haha, we're not doing anything differently for dinner tonight. Maybe some mashed potatoes... ;)

[estranged4life]

going on here...I may IM with my friend in Moscow, Russia but otherwise it's just another Thursday to me.

Thought about driving to see the <a href="http://www.chickashafestivaloflight.com">Festival of Lights</a> in Chickasha, But I think I'll skip it for now.

I will be eating dinner with about 20 people tomorrow. Mostly friends but some family. After dinner (which is really lunch because we're eating at 1pm- weird Southerners) my mother in law and I are headed down to Myrtle Beach with Laney for a long week-end. My husband always has to work on the day after Thanksgiving, so he can't join us. I love Thanksgiving- I love the food associated with it (minus the turkey)and I love to eat. I have so much to be thankful for.

[LorraineRN]

Husband, kids, and I are going to our friends' house to eat and watch the Saints game, Who Dat! Then I have to leave to go to work on Thanksgiving night! :distress:

[fringed n fab]

My brother and sis inlaw were going to make a trip to Ohio with the kids for a couple days but backed out I guess, so she's cooking dinner for tomorrow and we'll go to their house. I'm taking a few cooked dishes though.

I have to leave to go to work on Thanksgiving night! :distress:

That stinks!

Happy Thanksgiving all my friends in 'Normal Land' :)
