    Awe that was me when I worked retail. I believe our bowling alley is closed or opens early on Thanksgiving. Either way, it's my normal day off. I was invited to a dinner at a co-worker's house. He and his family throw a big dinner for those who don't have a place to go. Though I'm still thinking of just taking my mom to Marie Calender's. She really enjoyed it last year! While everyone was rushing about. We were sitting enjoying a big dinner we didn't have to cook or clean up after.

          Probably going all over town to the homes of various family members to eat their food. I never bother making a Thanksgiving dinner at home yet because there are so many leftovers we get sent home with that it would be pointless.

              A large convergence of family at my parents' home to which I will bring plenty of sanity-inducing wine. Maybe a flask of whiskey for good measure.

                  Plenty of "whoopings" -- you know, spare the rod etc.

                    Is that the QotD?

                    My father smacked me over the head with a broom-handle because I wouldn't leave a potted plant alone. For such a big man, he could move very, very quietly.

                        Aside from the occasional ass-whooping, I would get grounded. Generally meaning that I had to stay in the yard.



                        Quasi-humorous anecdote: one summer, my dad grounded me for the ENTIRE summer. Since he was 'on the road' during the week, my mom would take me out of town, to her parents' lake cabin or farm. I spent the entire summer grounded to the yard and very, VERY rarely was I even home.

                          I rarely got in trouble, actually. I was always the observant one and saw my older sister get in trouble. Grounding us didn't really help because we lived on a farm outside of town and there really weren't any other kids (other than the ONE neighbors' kids) to play with and they had their own thing going. I got my tush whooped a couple of times, but aside from that... I didn't really get in trouble.

                                That's a common punishment in North America (perhaps not NOW, but back when we were kids) for swearing. "If I catch you swearing ONE MORE TIME, I will put soap in your mouth"

                                soap cleans out the filthy words. apparently.
