Follow up on Thanksgiving

Whew! After cooking and cleaning for 2 days we had our early Thanksgiving dinner Sunday evening. Had 12 people total, and now am putting dishes, silverware, etc. away. The nice thing about inviting people to your house is that you can invite who you want. We had a widow lady from the neighborhood, 3 adults singles, a good GF who was recently divorced, and 2 couple we are close to.
The bad thing is all the cooking and cleaning. It is fun to get out the silverware that I inherited and use it. Same with china.
The second good part is that we are now going to Daytona for 4 and 1/2 days to chill and look at old cars and relax. Every year Datona has the "Turkey Rod Run" a convention of old cars, 57 Chevys, little duce cupes, etc. There are several car clubs that do this every year. We just watch.
I'm going to take long walks on the beach and relax.
SARAH PALIN--got to meet her and shake hands this morning. Stood in line for 4 hrs. yesterday for the wrist band, I was #410 of 500. She signed my 2 books. Met her 2 youngest kids and shook hands with her Mom and Dad. It's nice to meet someone who thinks like me, and isn't a snob.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Sandra of SC. My brother was born on Christmas eve, he only had 2 or 3 birthday parties. I gave him one when he turned 18.
He will be 64 this year.
Hope everyone has a restful, blessed Thanksgiving. Don't eat too much pie and stay healthy. Hope to have DH take his laptop to the beach so maybe I can check in from there.
