Snickerdoodles

Ho-lee Snockerdoodles!!!!!! Has it really been 3 months since I last posted here??? Damn, but time flies and flies like fruit so...

Well, not too much has happened, but enough to make things just the right speed to keep life interesting. My wife finally returned from our daughter's apartment on the 3rd of December, so that was a definite plus!! Of course, I managed to get my brother-in-law to take the kids for the night and we spent the night in Colorado Springs. Not really all that big of a city, but big enough for our need! Heh.

I even cooked a turkey for Thanksgiving! Yah, me! I cooked it a bit different than my wife does, but it still came out delicious! Freaked me the hell out, that's for sure. But, all things being equal, I managed to screw up the stuffing. Oh, we cook the stuffing separate from the bird, if you're interested. If you're not interested, don't read the previous sentence. The stuffing was pretty hard on the top and sides and bottom, but the middle was, barely, edible.

Thanksgiving sucked in that my wife and sister were not here. My wife was in Tacoma, Washington, and she had a decent Thanksgiving, even though she stayed home for it and spent some time with the baby (at the hospital). The daughter and her hubby(wannnabe) spent the day at his parents house and at the hospital with the baby (who is doing GREAT, btw!!). I didn't really want to brave the highway on that weekend so my sister had Thanksgiving in Denver. I think she went to someones house, so she wasn't totally alone on that day, at least. And, someone tell me how the hell am I supposed to know that my sister LIKES the stuffing hard and crunchy?!?!?!? Dammit.

Well, this is only the first in a line of postings (I hope!). So I will leave it at this, for now.
