I went to a grown up dinner tonite. I had two options for Thanksgiving (Canadian-style) dinner.
1. Go to my friend's house and have dinner like grown up adults (OMG!! I am now an adult!!) or...
2. Go to dinner at my aunt's house who is an alcoholic, drug user, who fairly recently had her car impounded and is awaiting trial as she was driving drunk without a lisence with her three kids in the car. Hmmm...the decisions. Oh, I neglected to mention that she also beat up my Grandmother last year but she was "so drunk (I) didn't know what (I) was doing". I can't move past that and if my parents can stand to be in the same room as her....shame on them.
However, I had a superb dinner with friends, and no regrets. Family is good. But not always. I'll wait until Christmas. She'll more than likely be in jail by then.
Happy Turkey Day kids!
