Happy Thanksgiving to all my three bloggers!
How was my strange Thanksgiving? Very nice overall but very different.
The day started at 7:30 with a phone call that my Brother-In-Law needed a ride to the hospital so that he could drive my sister home who had just passed out at work. I was flabbergasted because she had only been at work for an hour. I took him not knowing she was still in the ER and I would have my nephew for most of the day. I do love him so I did not mind. In the long run, she was dehydrated which caused her sugar level to go off whack and she passed out. In the mean time, because of her previous infection they wanted to make sure there was no infection anywhere else so that ordered a CT scan. Once again because of a wild freak inconsistency in her blood sugar and dehydration, a test was run looking for one thing and found something else. They discovered that she has a fatty liver and needs to see a specialist on Monday. This was unrelated to her dehydration that caused her to pass out today. God knew.
I then came home with him , did some things around the house, cooked and watched the parade.
They still were not home by noon. We had signed up to go serve the needy at the Y , so we took munchkin with us. He did not want to go. He only had to serve a few people but he had such a great attitude about helping. At the end, he was hungry and ate a plate of food. When he says he is hungry, we feed him because he rarely says he is hungry.
Lastly, we ended up at my brother's house for ......no, not turkey but chili and clam chowder. I was not looking forward to this and I have my reasons but it turned out to be a nice evening even without the stuffing and turkey. I will get that on Sunday with the big family gathering.
I did miss having my stuffing on Thanksgiving today and was contemplating going to the store for Stove Top but I did not. The neighbors were frying a turkey and I was tempted to steal it when they went inside but I did not. It smelled so good.
So Sunday , when you are tired of your leftovers and scrunge your face at the thought of turkey or possibly you are eating turkey chili. Remember me when I will just be celebrating with that tasty food and it will be hot and fresh.
Happy Thanksgiving!

Sorry about your sister, but good that she was able to get the care she needed and a diagnosis.
Sounds like it was a great Thankgiving all in all and I know that you were a blessing to be there to help with your nephew

Well...your sister had a day, didn't she?
I think I'd like some chili...I don't like turkey. However, my mom's dressing is really good, so I am glad for that instead of Chili!
