Thanksgiving













Well, did everyone have a good Thanksgiving? I know I did. I got up and vegged for a bit...DJ was sick with a fever and congestion on Wednesday, so I did not know if he was going to make it for the gathering...He was running fevers of 101- 102.6, so I let him go and as usual he fought it off with no medication, but he has a new friend...saline nose drops...LOL..but he did feel much better on Thursday...anyway...we went to my brother in law and future sister in law's house, Jon and Sue. It was a great family reunion...Most of Dave's family was there, even Mike was back...it was nice to see everyone and meet some new future family (Sue's family)...I then left and went to the Eagles game with Dan...they crushed Arizona 48-20....


Friday was more running around. I got a new per diem job as a nurse practitioner and had to go to an HR briefing in Allentown. They talked about benefits, had paper work to do and got my photo for my ID done....now I start hospital orientation on Dec. 1


Then went, gathered the boys and went to NJ to see my mom, aunt Helen, and Mare for lunch...then drove to Oxford to drop DJ at my mother in laws for the weekend..he is then going to hang out with his uncle Dan and Shannon (who he states is hot...LOL)...so today I am trying to get some order to this house...HA HA HA
