Thanksgiving 2017

Actually Thanksgiving came and went.  Wednesday the 22nd, KR and I drove down to Union Station and picked up Kurt.  Traffic was really weird.  We were pretty close to Downtown and Kurt text that the bus just left Burbank.  We thought we would have a lot of time to walk Gracie around, but no, it was just perfect timing, we only waited about two minutes.  It was nice having him home.

I had to rush over to the rental house to see the shower door installation.  Somehow the shower door would not close properly, and the glass was chipped too.  So I am meeting the installer on Monday to discuss what we can do about the problems. 

Thursday morning I got Kurt up for the race.  Will flaked out and did not go with us.  I ran the whole way and finished in 31 minutes.  Kurt beat me with 26 30.  That is pretty good for someone that does not actually run.  We got home and I put the turkey, with the stuffing, in the oven.  Our thanksgiving guests this year were mom, dad, Will, Kurt, Bryan, Grace, Rita and Eddie.  Ronnie went to his cousin's house and Rocky was in Japan.  We had pumpkin pie, cherry pie, apple pie, and pecan pie.  Stuffing, green beans, mashed potatoes, cranberry sauce, gravy, and sweet potatoes.  It was so much food.

Friday morning I went to Costco thinking that it would be packed.  NO ONE THERE at 9 am.  Lovely said the Costco in Taiwan had Black Friday sale and the line went around the building and all the items on sale for Black Friday were sold out the first day, so they had to cancel the next two days!!!!!!!!  I don't believe it. 

Saturday Will worked 8 - 11 30, and was suppose to work here.  He showed up at 12 45 and left at 3 15 with plenty of time in between taking breaks.  We got into an argument as he didn't want to do things he said were of no consequence.  I told him he didn't need to argue about that, as whatever we ask him to do he needs to do, whether he believed it or not.  We all went to church and had tacos after.  Jacqueline and Natalie Frances were there along with Tony and Joanne.  Will remember them both from high school group.  I spent a long time cleaning the garage, getting the car vac out to be given away.  We never use it.  Also the polisher too is going away. 

Sunday KR went paddling.  I rode around.  The hip was ok on Thursday after the run and it is hurting more and more.  Hopefully I didn't wreck anything.  Would love to run more but alas, maybe it is not to be.
