[Dailydrool] Oh dear, they're all coming HERE

[AWoodrum]

For Christmas.  Most of the local relatives and in-laws, at least 10 of
them.  The thing is, I do not really care for turkey or ham, so every
Thanksgiving I fix a huge turkey and then refuse to eat any more turkey for
a year.  So for Christmas I make an old-fashioned Sunday dinner, with roast
beef and carrots and potatoes, green beans, gravy, fruit salad, hot rolls
and several desserts.   Nothing from cans or boxes, it's all fresh.  And
everyone loves it.  Apparently they love it enough that they voted and just
let me know they're all coming.  Oh dear, that means I have to start
cleaning house RIGHT NOW.  And I really need to finish painting the living
room, too.  

 

The dogs love having company, the three of them go from person to person
begging for food and attention, they have a ball.  Bassets have such goofy
personalities, they're always a hit with everyone.  And of course the dogs
get to help clean plates after dinner, they each get a nice plate of
leftovers.   The cats hate having company, they all hide in the garage, or
if it's cold, under the beds.  And they hate leftovers.  Somehow the cats
always know when the last of the company leaves, and in just a few minutes
here they come out of hiding.

 

Our Howliday cards have not shown up yet, but they apparently did ship
sometime last week.  I hate being late with the cards, but there you go, in
between cleaning and painting I'll get them mailed.  The girls and the
kitties will help.  Oh my.  Happy Howlidays to everyone from Mama and the
Girls and Kitties.
