Vacation? in Ohio

My momma is from the great state of Ohio, as my grandpa says. Over Thanksgiving we almost always make our way to my mom's home town to see my grandparents and get together with family. My friends always say how lucky I am and how they love to fly and love to travel and I am so lucky that I get to go on vacation during Thanksgiving. Too let everyone else experience my vacation I kept a diary of yesterday.

2:30 a.m. get to grandma's, it was a late night flight
9:30 a.m. get up and get showered, still very sleepy
11:00 a.m. getting lunch ready after a being told by Uncle Jerry that my last relationship didn't work out because I'm to bossy.
12:00a.m. lunch is ready and everyone makes a b-line for the kitchen.
1:30 p.m. grandma spent the last hour and a half talking about what an idiot my uncle Jerry is and what a pain in the ass his wife is.
2:00 p.m. mom and I start to get late supper ready my cousins and their spouses and kids are coming at four.
3:30 p.m. I am busily telling mom that we made entirely too much food, while she persists that we will not have enough.
4:15 p.m. family rushes through the door and I get swarmed by kids, they are just so cute.
7:30 p.m. dinner is over and now we all catch-up over the last five months since we've seen each other, my cousin Michelle works with her husband as partners in a printing business company, my cousin Matt works for CAT and helps run the family farm.
9:30 p.m. so great to see family but now they've gone home
10:30 p.m. call my boyfriend and chat for a while until I fall asleep.

I love my family and we all get along, but sometimes it's a chore to go on vacation.
