I had to get up two or three times to pee.
Kurt had wanted to do the Turkey Trot, so I woke him while KR went to check the surf, and we went to Sam's Club to do the 'virtual' Trot. There were at least 50 people there, with George Chen and a bunch. We sang the Stars Spangled Banner, I waved a flag and 8 am we were off.
I have not ran that fast in a long time. 3 miles about 30:50, with Kurt beating me just a little.
We came home and I cleaned the table and set up for tonight's dinner. KR made the apple and apple/apricot pies, and took a nap. Kurt folded the laundry, and gamed. I got the giblets from Chuck and cooked it for Gracie
2 pm and KR picked up the bird. As soon as he opened the bag, the burnt odor drifted up. He tried carving it and the back just cracked in two. Way over cooked.
We served it anyway. Mimi came with Den, he made home made cranberry sauce and a pumpkin moose cake. Very nice guy. There were 8 of us. Three here, Brain, Violet, Dad, Mimi and Den. Tyler did not make it.
We used FINE china and waterford. Eating started at 3 and we were done in by 5. Cleaned up and Violet took Yeye back and put him to bed and we cleaned up and went to bed. We tried listening to a sermon, but KR passed out, in the middle of the sermon. I just turned it off and went to sleep.
It was a very good meal. Even though the bird was overcooked.
