Another day at home.    It was very quiet.

Checked with Randy and Donna in Wisconsin to see how the hunt ended.   They got two nice does in the hunt this year.

I did som reading today which I am trying to get back in to.   I used to read a lot but got out of the habit when Dick was sick.   Am getting better. 

Tomorrow Mass and we will see what comes after that.

I was home ALL day today and even took Nicky for a short walk.   It was, after all, up into the 70s and seemed like a good idea.   He was sure pleased.   Hope this gets me out of my laziness and taking him out more.    After all, I got a doggie to walk me:)

Washed my sheets today and paid all my bills up to date, except for the taxes.   Might as well take advantage of their deadlines.   I know that from the years I was active in finance.
 
Hope your day was as successful.

Happy Thanksgiving.   I hope yours was as pleasant as mine was.

I spent the morning wrapping the ornaments that I buy for all my kids and great grandkids.    Next big job will be in a week or tro when I make the candy.      After all, why bother to have Christmas at all without Buckeyes or fudge.    At least that was what I was told.

This afternoon, I picked Bart up and we went to Geronimo for our family Thanksgiving at Adam and Alesia's house.    Adam smoked the turkey and we had enough food that we could have fed all of Geronimo.   All good too.  

Nicky was a happy doggy when I finally got home.     A hungry doggy too.

I baked pies today.   Two beautiful pumpkin pies.

Got ready to bake and realized that I did not have enough sugar.   Remind me never to go to the grocery store on the Wednesday before Thanksgiving.

Nicky had his annual checkup today and updates on all his shots.     Had them trim his nails while they were at it.    He has a slight heart murmur but otherwise is in excellent health.    He is nine years old now.

Just got back from Writer's Club.    Read a poem.   It was well received with good critique.

Made the pie crust for the pumpkin pies today so that I can bake tomorrow.

Can't believe that Thanksgiving is in two days.

I

I think I told you all that mice invaded my pantry.     I spent today cleaning and spraying with mint oil and setting DCon traps all over.   Never had this trouble when I had a cat but I don't think I want a cat.   More responsibility and Where would I put the litter box.

Anyway that is done and I hope I am DONE with IT.

Spent a nice quiet Sunday.     Went to the 8:30AM Mass tthis morning and had coffee and with my after mass friends.

This evening Barbara had invited me over for her famous Taco Soup.   Her brother is visiting so he and Marlies were there too.    An altogether enjoyable evening.

Bart and Barb are still watching Bart;s friend Scott's dogs so Nicky had plenty to smell when I got home.
