It certainly has been an interesting holiday weekend so far. I was very busy at work and spent a lot of time with my family and still more to come.
As you may have noticed, yesterday was quite a busy day for work. I worked this morning as well including getting some extra hours in on both days. Yesterday was volunteer, but it was also holiday pay (x1.5). I had a rental show Thursday night, and I have another rental show tomorrow. Then, there is always T-Bones on Saturday nights. Unless you don’t count the couple of hours it will take to setup and take down the rental show tomorrow, I will not have a complete day off of work until next Sunday, and Tuesday will be the only night between now and then that I don’t have a karaoke show or rental. Oh well though. It’s money.
If course, with it being Thanksgiving weekend, I have spent a lot of time with my family as well. My mother, father, a friend of the family, her daughter, and I had a small dinner Thursday night. Then, last night, My folks, my brother, his wife, and I all went over to my Aunts house for the family and friends Thanksgiving dinner. I saw some family members of course including my grandmother whom I always enjoy spending time with. Not too many people are lucky enough to be in their mid thirties and still have a grandparent around. I also got to hang out with my cousin and her boyfriend last night, and they will come out to my karaoke show tonight as well.
Of course, the big news of last night was the announcement of my brother and his wife’s child’s sex. That is whether they are having a boy or a girl. They decided to make a cake, and the color on the inside of the cake would be indicative of the gender of the child. The amusing part of this was everybody joking about how they wanted to eat fast to get to the cake quickly. So, it finally came time for the ‘ceremony.’ They decided to let my grandmother be the one to cut the cake. She sliced into the cake, and, with the pull of the first slice, we all saw the pink interior of the cake to let us know the child would be a girl. We would have all been happy either way, but this was still fun.
That is all for now. I hope all of you had a truly wonderful Thanksgiving. Until next time…
