11/23 Turkey madness!
Ok, so I finally spoke with a turkey farmer from a local butcher shop, this isn’t the one who I called over the weekend, but she has a turkey for me and its 6kg at 9,90 Euros a kilo. In American dollars/weight the turkey will be about 13.23 pounds and cost us 90-100 US dollars. OMG! This is turning into one very expensive Thanksgiving. And I have no clue if this will be enough turkey for 25 people. Yes there are 25 people attending this dinner. I’m just thinking about ordering a Turkey over in the States and then having it shipped over because I think it still will be cheaper and I’ll probably get a big enough turkey. Lol

Hey Jen - I'm finally catching up on reading your blog. And I love reading your posts. I'm still in shock over the $90 turkey - OMG! Ever since I returned from surprising Sara on her birthday, my life has been C-R-A-Z-Y!!!! It was fun to Skype with you, Sara, Yvonne 3 and G'mere. We'll have to schedule another time to do that soon. I feel that every hour at work is packed full of things to do. Alot of it is follow up...a major PITA* I've been busy with an annual Planning Session/Board meeting for the board I manage AND I was one of the major coordinators of a Tree Lighting Ceremony and Wreath Decorating contest that was held last night. AND I found out Wednesday that I needed to decorate the Santa Tent!! This is something that I was not planning nor was it budgeted for so I had to call friends and beg for favors - it worked and our Santa Tent looked great. We had a bunch of volunteers and next year I need to ask them to do more tasks so that I am not on the couch the day after the event. Why am I on the couch welll..........I am paying the price now because I was on my feet too long last night. With my flat feet that I need to wear inserts in my shoes for, this is a very bad thing. I'm now on the couch with foot up and Danny V. is taking good care of me, ice packs first and then heat packs. Not fun!! Last night we had a very special Santa Claus at our event, Danny V. made his first Clearwater appearance!! He had made numerous appearances in Pensacola in the past. OK, time to end........I love you! I hope you start getting my cards......Anne p.s. - *PITA = Pain in tghe Ass!
