Wednesday's wasteland

I did not get a lot accomplished today. After I got up and made myself breakfast, I washed dishes, posts and pans and then read the paper.

I did take out the vegetable compost waste and put it in the composter and sorted out some of the other recycling. By the time I got that done the mail had gotten here, so I sorted it out, not much of anything worthwhile. There were three catalogs that I looked at quickly, but the rest went into the recycling bag.

Andrea came over and she and Kathleen went to Bed, Bath and Beyond and a couple other places, I think that they got home a little after 1600, and all I got done was clean up where Reggie had gotten sick and vacuumed the floor.

I guess I did make myself some lunch, a burger patty on some toast and melted cheese and the last of the sweet onion. It is a good thing that I bought another one yesterday.

Kathleen made some tomato soup, grilled cheese sandwiches for dinner tonight, and put the turkey in the oven for tomorrow. Our family is celebrating Thanksgiving on Friday at Aaron and Tami's house; I think all the children and grandchildren will be there then.

It gets really interesting with four married children around holiday time, so we try to pick out a time when we all can get together even if it is not on the holiday. This year Alyssa and Dan are having Thanksgiving at Dan's mother's house and Andrea and John are having it at John's parent’s house. Tami's parents are having their family Thanksgiving dinner on Saturday. So that left Friday open for us.

Toni and Chucky are coming over tomorrow for Thanksgiving Day dinner, so we will have turkey dinner two days in a row. We decided to do a turkey this year so that we would have some turkey for leftovers.

This evening after dinner I loaded up the dishwasher, so that we will have plenty of dishes and flatware for tomorrow's dinner. Well, I think that is all the "exciting" things that happened around here today. I had thought about not writing a blog today, but once I got started, my fingers keep hitting keys and this is what came out of it.

With that said, I think I will say good night!
