A very silly day ~ At the very least!!

Normally if my day is going bad, it stays bad. So I must give a high five to God for having such a great sense of humor today. Without all the silliness, I may have lost my mind today.

I chose to start my portion of the Thanksgiving cooking today. Pretty much because if my NST thing dosen't get timed well then I may not be able to cook, and I committed myself to cooking. So that is how this day began, and ended oddly enough.

I'd gotten all the things out to make my Mom's pumpkin Cheese Cake. It is so yummy and since it is made with Splenda and has no crust, it is Diabetic Friendly :) So this recipe calls for wax paper, and needless to say, I did not have any of that! So I realized this and but on my brave face to go to the Commissary. Prior to leaving I did take the eggs out of the fridge and put them on the table (Since the recipe calls for room temp. eggs). Remember that, you'll need it later........

I found everything I needed to get within probably 5 minutes at the Commissary, it wasn't until the check out line that it occurred to me that I put gas in the Civic for Nathan yesterday and left my ID in my pants from the day before. Fortunately the clerk was nice to me, and let me leave my cart near her register and go back to get it (She could have been even nicer and not made me go, but its her job). I quickly went home, and then back. I paid for my stuff and went about my way. While on the way home I realized that I better put gas in my Sante Fe if I wanted to make it till next Tuesday. So I went to the gas station. Since I have been carrying cash more and more recently (The kids Mom pays me in cash so its the easiest thing) I had to pre-pay. I got all the way in, through the 5 minute line (I went at lunch, Go me) and guess what I forgot in the truck? If you said my ID you are correct! Needless to say, as soon as I got to the register I said "I left my ID in the truck, but if you could just let me pre-pay now I will come back in with it when I am done"..... This clerk... Not so nice, and she a:) Chewed me out for not having my ID and b:) informed me that ID's are a must and I would have to go out and come back in. I did this, and yes, it is my fault but her attitude wasn't necessary.

So as you can imagine, with me being 35 weeks now, I was a tad grumpy. I was driving home a little bit annoyed and what do I happen to see by my house on the road..... Yep and "adult toy" if you want to use the political term. I was shocked, and it made me laugh really hard. I sent a Text to all my friends that I thought would fine it as funny as me and said "There is a "toy" on the Thomas Ave. Just in case you were needing one of those"...... What a silly thing to be on the road between houses and a school! Good thing there wasn't school today, seeing as I could imagine a small child picking it up and taking it home to say "Look what I found"...... LOL

So I finally get home, and for whatever reason (I guess I wasn't thinking) rather than Pre-Heating my oven I hit "Self Clean". Thank Goodness I only wanted to do the Cheesecake because that was about 4 hours worth of time. It is okay though, because I had tons of other prep to do. I did decide to assemble the mix for the Cheese Cake though. I went to mix everything and my eggs were missing. I couldn't figure it out, I knew I put them out before I left..... Then I spotted on my living room floor a tiny bit of white speck. I got down, and wouldn't you know it was a small little bit of shell. So one of my dogs actually ate 3 eggs, shell and all while I was gone! What a bunch of oinkers!!

Nate actually came home at about 3, so that was a great surprise! I really enjoyed that. He talked me into eating and MRE for lunch. It wasn't horrible but definitely not the best. I ate a few things from mine, but mostly gave it to him. It was silly that he even suggested it to me, let alone we actually sat at the table and ate them!

We put up our tree, and other decorations today. I normally like to do it on Thanksgiving day after dinner, but since we are going to a friends, I made him help me today. It was fun. I have some pics, but I am so sleepy I don't have the energy to add them. Maybe tomorrow!
