This Thanksgiving was a little weird, because my family was supposed to have Thanksgiving dinner with my grandparents on my mother's side on Wednesday, and then go up to my other grandparents afterwards to have another Thanksgiving dinner with them on Thanksgiving day, but they were not feeling well, so we canceled, and moved the Wednesday dinner to Thursday. My cousin, aunt and uncle (all on my mother's side) usually come, but my aunt and uncle were scared of getting Covid 19, so they did not come. Fast forward to Thanksgiving day, my dad starts preparing the turkey at around 12:00 p.m., and finished it at around 2:00 p.m., so we went to our grandparents' house soon after. My mom, dad, and some others prepared the rest of the food, and while they did that I was tasked with the job of setting the table and putting food in the appropriate spots when said food was finished being made. Then we ate the dinner, and that went normally, with the exception of there being less people. Then we packed up the left over food, said our good-byes and went back home, where we rested for a while, then ate a "dinner" of something-that-is-on-the-tip-of-my-tongue-but-I-can-not-remember while watching something if I remember correctly (It wasn't the Mandalorian®, because the next episode would have come out Friday...). Then we all went to bed and slept.
