1. Cyber Monday shopping.
Completed. Free shipping on everything except an order for DS where a $20 off code was a greated savings than the free shipping.
2. State of the Turkey.
Half eaten, half frozen. We have one more scheduled turkey feed tonight, then - beef tomorrow! Yay! Also, I had the audacity to serve Mr Swami a turkey dinner without gravy last night, lol. He was so confused. It's not like we're a gravy eating family - gravy is rare around here - but I usually wind up with a boatload of gravy on turkey day.
3. Middle Daughter: Cancelled our invitation to dinner again. She moved into her new apartment on Sept 19th and neither Mr Swami nor I have seen it yet.
4. Oldest Daughter: Has confided that she is developing a "exit strategy" from her marriage. Sad, but necessary. If not for grandson she would have left years ago.
5. Oldest Cat: Has decided that he needs to stand on my stomach when I watch TV. Not comfortable! Tippy Toes, a big neutered Tom, is quite the heavy-weight cat.
6. Younger Cat: Continues to want fresh parakeet for a snack. My parakeet cage looks quite unique - with chicken wire bumpers on the top and 2 sides to repel the darn attack cat.
7. Weather: The ground is white with snow. Not deep cover, but white enough to make me start feeling all Christmasy.
8. Carnage in Mumbai: Continues to boggle my mind. The Taj is an absolutely gorgeous old hotel! I've been in it, although I've never stayed there. I have also eaten in the Oberoi Hotel restuarant that was all shot up. Terrorists targeting prominent hotels just for joy of killing mass numbers of people is a very scary idea to me. Hotels are so vulnerable.
9. Why did I jump to Mumbai after deciding I felt all Christmasy? Probably because I have CNN on. Speaking of CNN I now have 2 politicians I instantly mute: GW Bush, who I have automatically muted since about 2003. I will read what he says in the paper if need be - but I will not listen to his whiney voice. New to mute-a-tude is Sarah Palin. I have zero interest in this woman, and I don't want to start a run-up for 2012 yet. *sigh* So I just mute her.
10. Hey! It's time for a white sandwich!!!

I am with you on the white sandwiches. I have had leftover turkey white meat on white toast with mayo for breakfast every day since Thursday.
We had Thanksgiving dinner at my parents' house and they gave us a large amount of leftover turkey, all sliced up. Mr. Fro asked if I was going to share some with him. I said no. I was joking, but he hasn't touched the turkey and I haven't mentioned that I was joking.
1. I tried to shop yesterday, and I bought a few toys for Conner.
2. I cooked a wonderful turkey on Sunday. I decided we didn't get enough leftovers on Thursday. Plus I got an 18 pound turkey for $12.
3. Interesting. This makes me think you have three daughters. But I thought you just had three children. Which is it?
4. Sorry. But she has a plan, and that is good. Hopefully, it will be better for all involved.
5. I read "big neutered Tom" and LOL'd.
6. How about a toy bird? Or a Christmas ornament bird for fun?
7. Yesterday was somewhat mild. Then we had a huge storm around 1. Then it was icy cold. Me no likey the cold.
8. Boggles my mind as well. Two Virginians were killed, and there was a story in our paper yesterday about a couple who were there for a conference. A bullet came through their door. They are home now and okay.
9. For some reason, your number 9 is blank for me. *grin*
10. I'm all about a white sammich. My cheese is even swiss.
1. Hooray for shopping completed!
2. That must have been some turkey if you still have half in the freezer after what? 5 days.
3. Sorry MDD didn't come for dinner. Doesn't she owe you money or something?
4. That's too bad. Good thougts to her.
5. LOL @ tippy toes. Our cat has bad timing. She comes to sit in my lap just as I need to get up.
6. LOL @ the hunter. Mom's cat caught the budgie years ago, but didn't know what to do with it. Poor stupid budgie.
7. Yay, Christmasy!
8. Mumbai: Don't even know what to say. Such horrible people. I don't understand how you can justify that to yourself.
9. Canadian politics has been fun to watch lately, so I don't know what is going on. Did they interview Palin again?
10. Yum.
Boo - two daughters, one son. I can't imagine a neutered Tom :)
Seana, the middle daughter has parent issues. Really, she should move to Australia or something for a few years and get it all out of her system. She lived at home until she was 24 years old - which is really too long to feel like a dependent. (We don't give her money much, just cars lol. She has totaled 3 cars, beginning with #1 just 4 days after she got her driver's license.)
If my hunter cat were able to knock down the bird cage she would have all 4 parakeets slaughtered within minutes. She's good.
