Its been a little crazy lately but that's typical for us. Our Thanksgiving went the way it usually goes. We spend the day together - Mom, Angie, John and me. Mom cooks, Angie sits as far away from John as she can, John eats, and eats, and eats and I try to mediate.
John was really good for about two-three hours but as soon as he saw food on the table that's all he wanted. So the last couple hours he was really frustrating because he kept wanting to go into the kitchen and the man is strong.
I did pick him up and take him back and he was almost perfect in the car. He loves music playing in the car. I also brought Betsy, my dog with me, on the ride back and she made some new friends in John's group home.
I'm thankful this year but still preoccupied with not having a job. Angie is feeling better after being sick for a few days. I just programmed the DVR so Mom can watch her Christmas shows.

Hi Hollie. This is Joyce, Sarah's mom. Happy Thanksgiving. I appreciate your perspective so much. Sorry to hear there have been hospital stays for John. How hard that must be for you.
