It's Just a Scratch

Well, another Thanksgiving has come and gone. I don't know whether to be thankful or sad or both. I had wonderful Turkey Day with some friends and then went to Montgomery to see family. Wow, we are a roudy crew! There was my Mom and Dad, Me, Dallas, Corey, Kelsey and Mitchell. Then my brother, Matt, his girlfriend Sherrie and their 3 children Shaylee, Kaylee and Maddison. And while we stayed in a hotel, we converged on my poor sisterApril's house with her husband Kelvin and their children Kj and Kellan. Bless her heart, I don't think her house will ever be the same!! We played cards, watched games and ate food. Who could ask for more than that!! We watched my cousin Cathy get married to a wonderful man on Saturday and got back on the road home. Let me just say, life is not necessarily pleasant when your huge Okie husband wants to see his game(and he can't) and you are getting caught in all of the Iron Bowl traffic so he can get home in time to watch the last 5 minutes. Thank heavans for Blackberry Web Browser. But we made it back safely and he wasn't too terribly grouchy. Now to why my blog is titled thusly....I fell earlier...slipped on a pile of wet leaves while getting the mail. I now have some bruised knees and a nice little scrape on my elbow. But that is just it, it is just a scratch. And so are our days on earth....just a minor scratch on the surface. Another scratch in the ripple of time.....another holiday come and gone.
