1. Not me, not even in the kitchen!
This is the first time in about 20 years that I don't have to spend all day in the kitchen! :woohoo:

We are going to spend the day with family.

7. I'm working all day, and in a way, I'm grateful.
I'm the lone liberal from a family full of Repukes. Every time we get together it seems all they want to do is bash Obama/Democrats.. I get sick of it.

8. Yeah that's tough
There are some family members I can no longer discuss politics with.

Happy Thanksgiving, anyway!

9. No. The clinic is closed for Thanksgiving.
That'll be nice. We weren't closed for Veterans Day.

You probably have to work tomorrow, don't you, HG? Big day for the biz.

Big holiday hug for you... :hug:

13. Oh yeah! I'm a nurse, in the ER. 7p-7a. Same on Christmas Eve/Christmas Day/Day After
But I do get New Years Eve/Day off, so that's a plus.

Being a nurse means that, generally, I will never have a major holiday off for the rest of my working life. I generally don't mind because I get time and a half, but still....
