I am. She even says that. When we go out to eat, and ask where she wants to go, she'll say "As long as I don't have to cook it, I don't care where we go." :)

LMAO Mom used to, but not anymore. She's talking about getting one of those turkey roasts for Thanksgiving and Christmas. I don't blame her though, she works a lot. No time for fun and leisure. :(

hmmm Perhaps her two spoiled rotten daughters should say, "Mom, you work so hard. Come on over to my house on Thanksgiving, I'll do all the cooking." grin
