Happy Thanksgiving all. Hope everything
went well for everyone. This is a time to reflect, and to give thanks to
whatever entity you want to give thanks to.
We did Thanksgiving Day with the
Hall family. Much good food and merriment. We have some good friends, here and other
places. Good friends are something to be thankful for.
Except for a few minor aches and pains,
we’re in reasonably good health. That’s something to be thankful for. I am suffering
from what the doctor called “Little League Elbow”. Can’t figure where that came
from. It’s only about five decades too late.
Molly is doing really well. That’s something
to be thankful for. She is being recruited by two universities for graduate
work. Not something that ever happened to either Lise or I.
We haven’t been getting out much
because we always seem to be too busy. There’s an upside though. Except for
finishing the basement, we are pretty much busy with things we want to be busy
with. That’s something to be thankful for. Getting the basement finished is definitely
something I will be thankful for.
Our bearded dragon Rover seems to
be doing well. That’s something to be thankful for.
We have some scrapple in the
freezer. That’s something to be thankful for.
We don’t live in Alabama. That’s
something to be thankful for. Not living in any place where Evangelical Christians
support a pedophile to be their U.S. Senator is something to be thankful for.
Little Hands is still the president
but at least he hasn’t started a nuclear war with North Korea yet. That’s something
to be thankful for. I figure he wants to wait until the end of the Christmas
shopping season first. Might be too harmful to the economy otherwise. And every day we get through without him doing something really stupid with the military or the nuclear arsenal is one day closer to his last day in office. That’s really something to be thankful for.
