Happy Thanksgiving

Hello!  It's only Tuesday, but so far, this week is turning into a long one already..

My son got "elbowed" in the nose yesterday at school while he and his buddies were playing football.  His nose is swollen, and after a visit with the doctor's yesterday, the injury may give way to two black eyes.  The holiday photo this week is not going to happen.  Oh well.  It's sad, but he is in no pain.  He is going to see another doctor later after the swelling is down to see if it's broken.  I doubt it, but you can never know.  Perhaps this little incident will give him second thoughts on whether he really wants to play football next year.  It's too rough of a sport in my opinion; but what sport really isn't?  He is at my mom's house right now with another ice pack on his poor swollen face.  Sigh..

This week, Andrew and his friends were out there spreading my Avon brochures around the neighborhood.  It was quite a sight to see these four boys carrying Avon brochures asking women if they would like one.  Who could say "no" ?!  Of course my son didn't do it for free-I paid him.  I couldn't believe he was willing do it.  It produced one call so far..  And those brochures I left in the bathrooms at the county buildings...well they produced a few too.  There just isn't enough reading material in county bathrooms.  I must go back there again and make my rounds!!

Today I'm meeting my former co-worker who left the ghetto offices for lunch for a turkey sandwich.  It shall be fun.  We usually have some Thanksgiving potluck, but for some reason-not this year.  Perhaps it's because this former co-worker would get stuck with the planning of it all?!  Me thinks so...  And, I didn't volunteer either, and I have no regrets. 

I will not be home for Thanksgiving this year, so this will be my entry for Jlanders...  Have a wonderful and happy Thanksgiving--I hope you are surrounded by the ones you care most about.  If not-I hope memories of pastThanksgivings will brighten your day. 

Well, it's road trip time!  Time the fill the kiddos in the van and venture off to Arizona to see Grandma Bobbie and Grandpa Dave!  We are going to head out very early tomorrow morning.  It will be fun, and hopefully warm.  It's getting a tad chilly over here in California lately--won't go higher than 65 at the moment. 

Happy Thanksgiving!!!
