We'll be driving 130 miles or so all told. Fortunately, it's on the same day - both families having it Thursday, so then Friday through Sunday, I shall not leave the house!

No travel, except multiple trips to the grocery store this week for things we forgot. We are hosting another couple. Bigdog and the other man both like to cook, so the wife and I just stay out of the kitchen and watch them cook away.

No travel. EgBob and I host all holiday meals for our immediate family and his extended family members. This year I also invited 3 friends who I knew didn't have a place to go for Thanksgiving. I love to organize/prep and cook the meal and fixings. This year we'll have 20 and 2 babies at our big feast. I really enjoy this time of year.

I will be out of the house by 7 am. 3 hours to my brothers to put some things in his fridge. He has to work till 4. What I put in his fridge will let him know I cared. Then back about an hour to where I will eat Thanksgiving lunch. Another half hour to dads assisted living home where I will meet same brother to visit with dad. Hang out with brother after that. Maybe eating dinner,maybe shopping. Then 3 hours home, just in time to get to bed to work at 7 am.

This is the first year dad has been at assisted living, before we had holidays at his house. He hosted all the extended friends. It is kind of a hard year for me.

Just an hour to my son's house but bay area traffic always sucks so I am sure it will be a little longer.

Question: When you are near the end of a tube or bottle of cream, what do you do to get the last bit out? A) I don't bother, life's too short B) I rest the bottle/tube upside down C) I cut the bottle/tube open D) I have a sophisticated system involving... (please explain)

B) for me, but sometimes the cream is so thick it doesn't all fall down, so I need your D) ideas!

B. The only thing like that is toothpaste and I do try to get it all out within reason. The Brand I use has a large cap, so it is always stored upside down. Pronamel repair and protect with flouride. Oh, we do have tubes of that hairball glop for Katniss, also stored upside down.

B, but I had a cleanser that was expensive and I couldn't get the last part out so I cut the bottle in half (it was a plastic pump bottle) and scooped the remainder into a small plastic tub. I was surprised how much it turned out to be because I haven't finished using it up yet and its been a month or so.

Mostly I do B. But, when it comes to my acrylic paints, I cut the tubes open and scrape them clean and whatever I could salvaged I put into little paint pots/small tubs. I don't buy the really expensive acrylics (lol, I'm no where near good enough for that and I just paint for fun) but it does add up after a while and some paintings take a lot of one color or another.
