Thanksgiving 2018: What are your plans? How was it? And the food?

For Thanksgiving I will be spending the day with my family... there will be an enormous amount of food as always. I will eat healthy and eat "diabetic" deserts, but I will also be sure to bring my insulin in case.

I enjoy the day tomorrow as I get to spend time with my loved ones; however, because of retail, I will be heading into work a late shift :(

 I too enjoy this holiday... probably my favorite because all of the family gets together, unlike Christmas where the family is often split up.

I am always looking forward to the food. There will be delicous platters from American type food to Mexican good.

It gives me a way to forget about my own conditions also, as my mind is occupied. My condition will only come up when family members who I do not see often will ask how I am or have been....

@Judy349899‍ I am sorry you have to work. what is your occupation?

It is ok... I am used to it. I work at Macy's part-time always during the holidays. Enjoy your Thanksgiving. 

The Mexican food sounds delicious... I am jealous.

Had a good Thanksgiving  how was everyone's?

Hey everyone. I hope you all had an outstanding Thanksgiving!

Mine was pretty good; however, I did have to work 6 hours at my job. But I was able to spend the earlier part of the day with my wife and her family. I had a good time with all of them! @notup!‍ that is a coincidence because we also had Mexican dishes at our Thanksgiving feast as my wife is originally from Mexico. We had a mix of Mexican food and some traditional American Thanksgiving dishes, such as turkey and potato salad.

I live in a different state than my family, so I was not able to spend it with them... Hoping to be nearer to them soon or have the ability to visit more often so I can spend more time with them soon!

I look forward to hearing from everyone in regard to their Thanksgiving too.

I have a very nice Thanksgiving. I have my brother inlaw and his girlfriend. She is a wonderful person. She helped me lot. Even my husband did the dishes. I didn't say a thing.

Take care.

@Paulam02‍ glad you had a nice Thanksgiving and had help. @Lee__R‍ thank you for sharing, sounds like a good time.

I too enjoyed a good Thanksgiving with family. 

I am sure you all are aware that there was a lettuce recall for romaine lettuc in-effect, right?

Yes, I knew about it. Now they said you can eat it, As long it not I think califorina

I  cooked the turkey and it was 24 lbs. And I made turkey soup. It is so easy to make.

@Paulam02‍ that sounds amazing! Does your brother-in-law and girlfriend live close by? Did you enjoy Thanksgiving with any other family and/or friends?
