Thanksgiving 2025

Thanksgiving 2025

Happy Thanksgiving to those that celebrate. I had a good time with family. There was a lot of my favorite foods. My sister made a good cheese snack thing. I made butternut squash. It was good and I think I was the only one that ate it. My sister roasted the squash that my cousin gave us. I don’t really like butternut squash roasted. I had a slice of pumpkin pie and that was it. I can’t eat anymore.

I had a horrible time sleeping. I kept waking up to pee and had weird dreams in between voids. I didn’t get up till 12 when my sister asked if I was going to make the squash. I wanted to get up around 11 but I was so sleepy. I got sleepier after I ate. I wanted to nap but haven’t yet.

This was the puppy’s first Thanksgiving and she loved smelling all the food. She got some turkey and sweet potatoes. My niece let her roam the yard until my sister scared her with her screen door. Then she wanted to go upstairs. She is so skittish. Definitely not a protector dog.

I took my blood pressure because it has been a few days since I last took it. It was high. I can’t wait to go back on my blood pressure meds to lower it. Tues I am supposed to get a call from nursing about it.

I managed to have two cups of coffee while the squash was cooking. I wish I had some cookies to eat with it but I am glad I didn’t because by the time the squash was done, it was time to go downstairs for the main feast. There was so much food we didn’t have a place to keep it all. My sister made two pans of stuffed shells but we only went through one. I will have them tomorrow for lunch. There wasn’t much turkey leftover. It was a small bird.

I got to do some reading tonight. I am going to rest my head for a little bit and then read the textbook. I got to get through it so I can move on to the next set of readings.
