Could THIS be the year I move up from the cardtable on Thanksgiving?
It is just going to be my folks and my wife and I so they pretty much are going to be out of excuses.

I haven't heard anything from my Mom about it yet. Maybe they are planning on surprising me with it. :pals:

Oh boy I hope so the little red chair really isn't cutting it anymore.

In other holiday news-My Mother is already starting to try to sell that "Presents? No no presents we are Jehovah's Witnesses" CRAP! Man I hate that, she tries this almost every year.

1. I predict "yes"
Maybe they'll have you carve the turkey too!

3. You probably will move up to the grown-ups table this year...
... but you will still have to drink the watered-down cherry Kool-Aid, though.

7. But I'm told that where they divvy up stuff should anyone die...
in the next year.

If you don't get to the big table you get shut out.

8. I finally cnvinced my parents that we should all have a grab bag
this year, instead of everyone buying everyone else something. I would rather take the money we would have spent and give it to Heifer International, the food bank or habitat for humanity.

There is only one little guy in my family and he sits at the big table.

10. All I have is a card table to eat on
because my kitchen is small.

11. Wow! that is small
Actually we couldn't even fit a card table IN our kitchen but then we rarely sit down to eat (eat watching TV).
