Hopefully Lake Tahoe - Reno will not have a lot of snow & we will be able to make it to our daughter's home in Utah. If we get snowed in on this side of Tahoe, we will be spending it at home & I will get to quilt.

Our family and friends will gather -- we just need to find a place big enough. We have grown to about 50. 15 of them are our grand kids and 4 more are greats. My SonIL and DIL have taken charge and I only have to bring Cranberry Salad and Pecan Pies. It is the only time we all get together ( I am turning 70 and I think something is going on but no one is talking - I can't even pry it out of one of the kids) and I really look forward to it. We have been blessed with a wonderful family.

It's just the two of us this year so I think I'm going to find an interesting cookbook at the library and try some new dishes....maybe Morroccan? Korean? Who knows, but we'll have fun with it, and there are always restaurants it it all REALLY bombs!

Our family is scattered all over the country( our kids and my sister and BIL in Denver, My DH siblings in Oregon, California and Texas. The holidays are really hard for me. I struggle with clinical depression and I just miss the family SOOO much. I just want to get through the holidays. I tried to get in the spirit last year and put up a little tree and some decorations, but it just made it worse. I wish I could fast forward to the new year :cry:

No egg gathering two times a day on Thanksgiving this year!
Quite a challenge to run back and forth from hen house to kitchen, lots of prep work before. Like doing double duty, no wonder I was always tired~! Not complaining was blessed to have a job-- self-employed-- one makes do!
