Holidays are coming

Well...It is that time again. Time for the Christmas wish list. Then Mom tries her best to find the best deals and make some of the wishes come true. All this can start since I bought the turkeys for Thanksgiving. That is the sign that the holidays are nearing.....Anticipation starts to grow. I have everyone's Christmas eve presents done and or ordered. Besides with so many in the house ( and lots outside the house as well) it will take a while just to try and get something for everyone.
Thanksgiving is shaping up nicely. I was concerned because it seemed no one was able to come for the great "Turkey Day". But now my brother (Paul) and Julie are coming! Only a few weeks....down girl down. Wonder how long it will take us to eat 42 or so pounds of turkey?? I see lots of creativity coming on with leftovers. Our pig is also due from the shop...in nice small white packages. So we will have more meat than an Adkins dieter could dream of.
I also made reservations for Mt. Herman Christmas concert and dinner. This is always a fun family thing...now who can I get to come with us???
Well colds and the rains have come to CA and the Gullman house. It is interesting to see who falls prey to the germs first and how hard they fall. Andrew always seems to get it worse and first. Then it filters through the house seeking whom it may devour. As long as it is gone by Thanksgiving. We can allow the rain to stay...keeps the bamboo growing and decreases the pollen.
Gotta go for now....check with you later
