HAPPY THANKSGIVING

 Yes it has been awhile since I posted.  No particular reason other than ennui.  Not much exciting is happening nor have I gotten much done.  

Husband had a tooth pulled 2 weeks ago and was given medication to avoid an infection – so last week we had to run to our doctor as he was allergic to the medication the dentist had given him.  Which of course meant that he spent last week taking meds to offset the allergy problems from the first med.  He is feeling better now.  

Bought our Thanksgiving turkey last week – a lot of turkey for 2 people!  Went out later in the week after I wrote a list, of course) to buy the other items needed for Thanksgiving dinner and fill in a few items we were low on in general.  

Now I have to clear out our dining room so we can have dinner there next week.  It is filled with our excess food storage due to still being concerned about Covid and its coming back now that it is getting fcold again and people will be inside more.  I will say this is always a problem since it is the least used room (other than general walking through to the rest of the house from the kitchen/den/basement and getting/storing excess food items in it) in the house.  

What are your Thanksgiving customs?    My husband and his family used to go out for Thanksgiving dinner, while my family ate same at home or at one pair of my grandparents.  It used to be “our holiday” - the one when we had both families come to us for dinner.  (This stopped as did most of our normal activities when we had bed bugs.)  Being of mixed religions we picked Thanksgiving to make as “our holiday to have everyone over” as it is the only one which both families celebrate.  


Thought of the week -
Do you have people in for Thanksgiving or other holidays or do you eat out?  Come on – someone must be reading this as I see the number of people who have done so rising all the time – answer me and let me who is out there!

No matter whether you do or don't, a Happy Thanksgiving next week.
