Test results are back for latest homeschooling test - all 1's ( 1 = A ), YAY!
have to repeat the oral recorded part though, due to being a little too fast due to nerves - (we'll get there).

- Missing my Dad, missing my Mom ( never see her half as much as I thought I would now days ), missing home, missing going home. Thinking about Thanksgiving coming up - ( - what has become a dreaded holiday for me ). Hoping this year goes much better than the last few. Thinking maybe I can bring a nice green salad, and maybe some orderves, or h'orderves, or hors d' oeuvres - however you spell them, that's what I'm thinking I will make and contribute this year. - Something that doesn't have to be heated up, and something that's simple but nice.

We end up having two Thanksgivings - One on Thanksgiving day, ( usually here with Hubby's family ), and the other is usually on the Saturday after Thanksgiving ( at my parent's home - with a day inbetween for resting up ). I'll probably make a little something for my Hubby's family's Thanksgiving as his Mother usually makes most, if not all of the meal. The last few yers, this celebration has gotten harder and harder, but last year was the hardest year of all with my Dad no longer here with us. ....maybe I'll scout around a little on some of the blogs I follow here and steal ...er borrow.... some recipies - there are some REALLY great cooks out there!
I'm just hoping and praying for a peaceful Thanksgiving this year, and trying not to let things get stressful for me.

- I miss Thanksgiving with my family when I was little - now THAT was something I looked forward to! -
