Thanksgiving


Well it's almost Thanksgiving! My brother's ex wife and I are going to get together and have a single mama's thankgsiving (with my kids in tow of course). I'm very neutral when it comes to their divorce. I am not on his side and I am not on hers... and I try to be supportive of both. I know they both were not angels and both did things to hurt the relationship.... I stink at relationships and know that I did things to contribute to the demise of my relationship with the boys' dad but I wasn't the bulk of the problem. She has been there for me through a lot of the problems in my life and I in turn have been there for her as well. But anyway she texted me this afternoon and told me that she wants me and my boys to spend Thankgsiving with her since my brother will have the kids for Thanksgiving this year. I know my mom and dad are going to have LOADS of fun with my brothers family!!!! I loved Disneyworld! I got to go there when I was about 14. What happened was, my dad had to miss my 8th grade graduation, due to a business meeting in Minnesota, and at the time families could travel with the employees when they had business meetings. At the time, I was totally bummed that my dad was going to miss my 8th grade graduation so it turned out that he was going to have to go to Florida during the summer, and my uncle Gerald was going to have to go too.... so.... what was awesome is that my Uncle Gerald, Aunt Judy, My Cousin Angie (whom I've always been pretty close with) my Dad, my Mom, and I all got to fly to Florida. We went to Disneyworld and to Universal Studios Florida. It was sooo much fun! WOW! I went off the track there for a bit. Anyway Thanksgiving will be good. My mom and dad deserve a vacation they've been through a lot with me and with my grandma who has pretty severe dementia (like alzheimers).... so they are going for a couple weeks and will be back a couple of weeks before Christmas!
