I'm bummed -- I'm not going to be able to cook a turkey this year. Either I'm going to have to buy one pre-cooked or go out to dinner. Since we don't have family here, we don't go anywhere where someone else will be cooking the turkey. My house is 16 years old and our wall oven is one of the original appliances. The oven does not work -- it has officially died. Considering its age, and the cost of the service call, parts, and repair, we're better off buying a new one. I've been cooking everything on the stove or by microwave. Because of my husband's involvement with coaching our son's football team (he eats, sleeps, drinks, and breathes football in his spare time), he said we'll get a new oven after football. This is ridiculous -- I think this is because he's cheap and wants to avoid the installation fee. When I asked him how I'm going to cook Thanksgiving dinner, he said "Oh, we'll just work around it."
