Thanksgiving

Yeah, I know. I should really, really, really really blog more. But I don't have time!! I am actually blogging from my Chemistry class right now. (Yep. Bad student. Guilty.)

Anyway, I'm just going to cut to the chase. Thanksgiving. Was. Great!! My break started on Monday night, since I don't have classes on Tuesday. So, Monday night, I went cosmic bowling with my boyfriend and a couple from work. The bowling alley had a "free for people who work at [insert name here] night. (We were later joined by the kitchen guys at work.)

Tuesday
Andy and I had plans to go back to his parents' house in Washington for the holiday, but we couldn't leave til Tuesday night because he had classes on Tuesday. So, I finished up my Christmas shopping for his family and did some laundry and we left around 6-ish at night. We ended up staying at the Red Roof Inn somewhere near Youngstown. It was really nice. (The night, not the hotel. ;]) I will leave that at that.

Wednesday
We got up early and drove the rest of the way to his parent's house. Not ten minutes after we got there, Andy announces that he is leaving to go to Waynesburg with his father. Before he left, he, his mother, and I all went to Shorty's to grab a quick lunch.
HE LEFT ME ALONE WITH HIS MOTHER!!
But it wasn't so bad. She had me wrap a few gifts then left me to write my paper (which I actually didn't do until Friday).
When everyone finally got back, we went to his grandfather's house and made pies. Correction. Andy's mother, aunt, and grandfather fought about makind pies while I watched. I wasn't getting into that. No way.

Thursday
I got up Thursday morning and made breakfast for Andy's family. Overall success...but we had to wait to eat so the food was cold. Then the never-ending task of cooking Thanksgiving dinner for EVERYONE. I believe it was really a bonding experience for his mother and I. I mean, I don't want to sound all cliche, but I feel that I am much more comfortable with Andy's family after this visit. Maybe it is because I have been there so many times...I don't know...but I like it. :)

Friday
Black Friday. Got up early and shopped with Andy, his mother, and his aunt. Overall? Success.
Also wrote my paper.

Saturday
Jerked out of bed by Andy for an early breakfast with his brothers and his mother. Flat tire on car. :( Mall with Andy's brothers and his mother. Got a new purse :)

Went to lunch, then to his grandfather's house. Then back to his house and out to dinner and to see New Moon. (Good movie. Still not worth all of the hype).

Sunday
Drove back.

Again, all in all, great holiday. :)

  1. You seem to have terrible luck with cars, dear. Good to see you had a good break though! Wish I could tolerate -my- MIL enough to deal with that much of her. Haha.
