The smell of a baking turkey is wandering into my room as I sit here and type this. SIKE! This year the family is headed to Stratford Hall, which for all of you history lovers is the General Lee's House. Yep I think its safe to say we are a rather southern family, considering Robert E. Lee (for those of you who don't know) was the General-in-Chief of the Confederate Army during the Civil War.
I can only imagine the feelings my family has as they walk around the ground and are seated where the famous general once sat. Why do I have to imagine you ask? Well... I get the honor of working this Thanksgiving, from 5 to close at my designated retail store. Its not all bad, seeing as I don't have to eat highly fattening food and get paid time and a half to be there but I am pretty bummed I don't get to experience this historical setting. It wouldn't really be Thanksgiving anyways without Cj here, but yet again as I force myself to lean to the optimistic side I remember that our Christmas dinner usually consists of the same glutenous menu. YES, AN OPPORTUNITY TO GAIN WEIGHT WITH THE REST OF AMERICA. The excitement is hard to control ladies and gentleman.
