Thanksgiving & Other Random Thoughts

Thanksgiving was a little stressful with the Family coming over and eating. Carmen had asked each of them to write down on piece of paper what they where Thankful for and of course, my eldest sister turned up heer nose at the idea and my 2nd and 3rd eldest sisters seemed not to hear Carmen ask them, so needless to say this idea bombed. Dinner was held off until about 2:30p, since my 3rd eldest sister was tracking down my nephew and was running late. Once we started it went pretty quick.
The Menu consisted of:
Turkey and Stuffing
Ham with Pineapple slices on Top
Dinner Rolls
Yams
Mashed Taters
Homemade Gravy from the Turkey Broth
Cranberry Sauce - Which I forgot in the refrigerator and Carmen found it when we was cleaning up. :(
Desert was:
Apple Pie
Pecan Pie
Pumpkin Pie
Ice Cream or Whipped Cream was also available.

Needless to say the turkey was ate up pretty quickly and we still have a good part of the Ham left, no worry there since we can heat it up again with a little brown sugar and have it for dinner again, plus we can find other recipes for the ham to be used with.

What I am Thankful For are:
1.) The Love and Support of Carmen over this past year.
2.) Being healthy and recovering from Cancer
3.) The Support of my Family and Friends during the past year.
4.) Being able to Work through the Chemotherapy and not have many side-effects from it
5.) The Best team of Doctors to support me and answer my questions.
6.) Moving into a little bigger House and have to pay more rent, LOL
7.) Renewing Old Friendships and meeting New Friends along the way.

Funny thing from yesterday was when I would start to alk about my Cancer and the Treatment, Noah and my Nephew Brian would leave the room, later Noah mentioned that he didn't want to hear about it and I told him that he should be concerned since he could develope Cancer in his lifetime and Carmen told him that cancer runs in the family. I thought it was interesting that Naoh doesn't want to hear about it, but doesn't surprise me, since he is more concerned with Skateboarding and High School.
