I'd hoped to spend this Thanksgiving w/ husband and kids at the ocean. I was trying to avoid the annual battle about visiting the in laws so if we were away....oh well! Then when the oldest announced his decision to enlist and said he wanted to spend time with my side of the family and his high school friends over thanksgiving...change of plans. I keep telling myself.....five more years, five more years....kids all at college, me living in Kathland....they can come to me....oh five more years.
