We got up about 8:30 this morning.  Since then, we've:

~ Baked two frozen pies (one pumpkin, one pecan)
~ Made a coconut cream pie, from scratch, for my Momma's birthday tomorrow
~ prepped and started the fresh green beans and the wassail
~ Got the turkey fire going and turned the brined bird into a beautiful golden dinner
~ Cut and prepped the taters for roastin'
~ prepped the cornbread dressing

All of that, plus keeping the kitchen manageable, getting the floor swept and semi-mopped, hanging an 8' rod above the windows in the dining room for the hanging plants...

We're exhausted already.

I'm having a beer and a blog before I go shower and get myself pretty.

And now company is here early.  So much for the showering.
