Happy Thanksgiving!

Well, it is not original, but it is true. This year as always, there is so much to be thankful for, what comes to my mind first is my cancer and then successful surgery. Then Kathleen breaking her arm and her good recovery.

After that comes to mind the children, their families, and the many blessing that they bring to us. It is really nice that they all live relatively close by and we get to see them all on a regular basis. Just the fact that they all seem to get along so well most of the time is really a blessing. It makes family get togethers some much nicer.

Well, I did sleep in this morning, it was raining out and there really was no good reason to get up and going earlier. I made some raisin toast for breakfast and picked up the ten-pound paper, probably eight pounds of it were ads for tomorrow. For some reason I really did not see much of anything that would tempt me into going to one of the malls and fighting the crowds and traffic.

Kathleen made some chex mix snacks, so I munched on them for a while. We did not really have lunch today, but it was more of a snack, nuts and chex mix. Toni and Chucky came over a little after 1400 and we ate about 1530.

Kathleen wanted to have some turkey left overs, so we decided that we would have our own small Thanksgiving dinner today. Of course, tomorrow we will have the family Thanksgiving dinner at Aaron and Tami's.

Chucky works until 1530 and Andrea is suppose to go to work about 1700, so we will all be together, but just for a short time. I will just be nice to have everyone together for a short period of time, although I guess we all were together for a short period of time last Saturday for Becca's birthday party.

Well, Chucky helped Kathleen load up the dishwasher and I will get the hand wash pots and pans either later tonight or tomorrow morning. Toni and Chucky just left for home about 1700 and so now the house is quiet once again.

Chucky gave Reggie a bath, so now he smells and looks much better. Chucky misses Reggie and I think they would love to take them home with them if they did not live in a duplex. They keep talking about taking him for a day or so, we will see!

Well, I think that is about it for today, I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving! Good night!
