Then it was Thanksgiving...

 We basically hung out in the apartment while I cleaned and cooked and began my holiday blues (although I really try not to... it is very difficult for me to keep good spirits when I am lonely and alone)

 ...but being alone does have its perks...   for instance I get to watch my kids be sweet to each other (or occasionally the opposite occurs)

 or I get to take lots of pictures of them sitting together on the TVA couch w/ the ipad ;)

They're cute.  I'll keep them - if they'll have me (sorry I just get so blue when its holiday time)

we did make cute little paper turkeys out of construction paper with their cute little fingers and toes tracing....  and I tried to cook my turkey different this year and it kinda stressed me out...  and I really, really wanted to go to the beach, but there is little minor winter chill in the air and I was afraid to take the kids to the beach with a brisk wind, and risk getting everyone all sick again...  Keira already had a fever for most of the week, and now Kai has one (friday night) and he barfed today - boo!!
...  oh well...  I'm starting to ramble.. I have one more post to do...
