Normal service about to be resumed...but not today!

I've been hopeless at updating this week, the flu thing hit hard but hooray! the corner is turned and I can feel that the poorlies are leaving...what a relief.
It's been a week for learning and thinking too and I hope that in a day or two I will have my thoughts straight enough to write them down.
We're having thanksgiving in England this week...H has been homesick and it just seemed a great idea to throw ourselves into something happy ..... I am going to try and make it all as authentic as possible, pumpkin pies cooked and frozen ( from scratch too, thanks to Jennifer and her great recipe!) green bean casserole and sweet potatoes with our turkey...all this on a thursday, almost a shame that the boys have school as normal. I even found Oscar Meyer bacon at the store today....maybe H will feel at home a bit on thursday.
So, flu be gone and hopefully back to normal tomorrow. Yippeee!
