     Extended family? In-laws? Distant aunts, uncles and cousins?

      We will be getting together with an adult nephew and his wife and children this coming weekend.

    That is a blessing, hope you all have a wonderful time. :  )  Who is the "we," your wife, partner or your faithful dog? This post was edited by . at November 14, 2023 7:02 PM MST

      Partner? Dog? I have neither. By “we”, I mean my wife and I.

    No.  I have been invited to my sisters house for a few hours on Thanksgiving day, but that's about it for "family time".

    It's still a time to come together and enjoy each others company.

    There are two family members that live with me and that's all I'm going to visit until one or two of us die.

    Yes. And my kids normally help with the sides.

    Yes!  Next week we’re going to Colorado for Thanksgiving.  We’ll spend Thanksgiving Day at my brother-in-law’s house.  My mom will ride with us and she’ll spend Thanksgiving with her brother and his wife.  I think it’ll be just the three of them thanks to strained relationships and health issues on that side of the family.

    Nope. I'm staying home all by myself and with my little bird. That's the way I want it.

    No, I will not. But I will be giving some awkward answer to this question over and over again as it is asked by well-meaning people who don't seem to realize that what is just small talk for them, may be painful for others.

    Visiting "with"?

    I visited one of my sisters and her husband for Christmas afternoon.

    Three days later, I'm yet to meet the other sister and her hubby. We like to spread Christmas out a bit, in our extended family!

    Since both couples and I all live within walking distances of each other, it's not that vital we cram everything into one week....
