turkey preparations

i don't really have anything profound to say, but simply... i am tired. our household is preparing to entertain 16 or so people for turkey day. not that too much has to be done, just the little things that one often puts off for another day. well another day is vastly approaching and i am scrambling to get the small stuff done. meghan has helped a whole bunch by cleaning and dusting the living room. she also has helped organize the dvd's and cd's. i cleaned the garage so we can walk through it... can you believe a three car garage that is so full i couldn't pass through it. very sad the amount of junk we have acquired over the years. i finally had to give in and i have started getting rid of things, which is a huge step for me. for some reason i become attached to what my wife affectionately refers to as junk! i think that somewhere, sometime and somehow i will be able to use it to fix something or make my life better in some small manner. it very rarely happens and i just run out of room. i feel a huge yard sale and the following trip to the good will coming on here shortly. although, i might need to save that.......
