Happy Thanksgiving Week!

On a sad note, my grandma is not doing well.  She has smoked her whole life and has had poor life quality for a few years now.  She went from being a very active, in control woman, to not being able to walk to and from her bedroom into the kitchen.  She has COPD along with an extensive list of other ailments caused from smoking.  She went into hospice yesterday after not eating for days and is not aware of her surroundings.  She comes in and out of conciousness due to the morphine they have given her.  Its an extremely hard thing to watch.  I have not had to deal with dealth in my life yet, and I know that it happens to everyone, so I can accept it.  We said our goodbye's and she woke up for a moment to say she loved us...the Dr's say she only has hours to a day or so left.  Although it is terrible to experience, I know she will not be in pain any longer and in a better place.

Let's change the subject and go on to happier stuff....I hope you are all ready to relax, eat and watch football tomorrow! I know I am, well the eat part lol! Trying to get everyone in the spirit... I will be way to busy hostessing and cooking to relax or watch any TV...okay, maybe the highlights-after all you can pause and rewind TV now. I am also getting up exceptionally early to squeeze my workout in, so that I can be guilt free...the majority of the food I'm cooking will be healthy BUT I am also making my famous brownies (healthy versions are still a mini-indulgence), apple pie and mac & Cheese...of course all homemade. I am a slave in the kitchen sooooo people better eat, drink and be merry! I already decorated for Christmas as well...yes, yes, I am an OCD, too clean, too organized BUT HOT woman! Lmao!

watch for the candids of Taylor Stevens and I next week! She's been such a blast to hang out with, coming back to Vegas to stay with me in Jan..can't wait! xxoo
