About Me
- Name: sandegaye
- Location: Tellico Plains, Tennessee, United States
I am a spiritual being having a physical experience. I love delving into the inner world & learning all I can about why I'm here & where I'm going. My mother, now transitioned to another plane, was a Cherokee shaman. She taught me the meaning of 'Namaste'.. meaning 'I recognize the God in you', and 'Nokomis'.. meaning 'Walk in Beauty', a Navajo term, that tells us to walk in balance with all of earth. My father, also transitioned, was a fun-loving Irishman who taught me the joy of risktaking, traveling, & living life to its fullest. I have hopefully taken the best of their offerings in forming the 'me' I am today. I am the mother of six, grandmother of five, stepmother of 2 more & step-gram for 6 more. My cup is full & running over..;o) My goal is to live 'juicy'!

The countdown..
Because I have only 4 days folks, to create a Thanksgiving Wonderland here at grandma's house!
I'm so excited to be having all the kids & grandkids at our house again this year. We had such a ball last year..
I'm more organized this year, so if the weather gods are kind, we should have all kinds of memory-making times together.
Angi & the kids will be coming Tuesday nite.. she's my sous chef.. so all should be well in the kitchen.
I pick up Dustin on Wednesday morning.. he's the appetizer creator.. so all shall be festive in the dining room.
Fred & Mari & Shelby will arrive in the afternoon.. & I can't wait to see those smiles again. Fred helps Dan a lot at the firepit, & Mari gives me great pyschic readings.
Kenny, Darla & Christian will be here in the afternoon as well. Darla has some crafts planned for the kids, so we're all anxious to partake. Hey, we're all kids at heart.
Chet, Darci & Karen will arrive on a late flight, so we won't get to see them until Thursday morning. Karen thinks she's coming here to 'fish'.. so we'll have to get her a pole to throw in the water.
Wednesday nite we're going to have a little Cherokee meal of Indian Tacos. Angi's homemade fry bread, literally floats.. they're so light & so good.
Thursday, we'll have some heavy appetizers to hold us til the big Dinner. Then comes the football games on the new big screen. That evening, we'll play 'Dirty Santa' & exchange some fun gifts.
Friday morning, we'll head to Cherokee, NC for a day in the 'mother land'. They have the best museum there.
Friday evening, we'll grill out on the deck, & enjoy that new Tiki Bar!
Saturday morning we're headed to the Indian Boundary Lake for some canoeing, fishing, & walking for the rest of us. Later on, we'll have a brunch picnic there & play some volley ball.
Saturday afternoon we're headed on a hayride! That reminds me, I need to get the kids some sleighbells to accompany our caroling.. ;o)
That evening, we'll all descend on downtown Tellico to share dinner at a great BBQ place.
Sunday morning, will be a sad farewell to Dustin, Ken & Darla & Christian, Fred, Mari & Shelby.
The rest of us will kick back here.
Monday, those of us left will go to Chattanooga for the day. Going to visit their wonderful aquarium there.
Tuesday morning it's adieu to Chet, Darci & Karen.
I'm hoping to hang onto Angi, Alec & Aiyanna til Friday. We have lots of sewing to do.. ;o)
So that's my excitement for the week. And until Tuesday, I'm cleaning, planning, bossing Dan around, shopping & anticipating.
Y'all come see us, ya hear?
May you make lots of special memories to last a lifetime!
Happy Thanksgiving!
