Yes Coffee is very good indeed. Already downed the first pot. Now I am going to get ready to get on the road for the 90 minute drive to DC. Won't be too bad today. Yesterday it was a mess. I figure that I'll get to my destination around 11:00 am. In time for a bit of chit chat before football, eating anything that's available by that time. lol

Just finishing up yesterdays left-over coffee, ready to start a new pot.  IT work at a place where it should run until around 3:00 or 4:00 pm unattended.  A little bit of tidying up and then off to see Terri.

My neighbor called me and invited me to come eat with their big family.  Both daughters with all their kids will be there.  They always invite me.  Sometimes I accept sometimes not.  I declined politely this time.  I have a full day planned out, and besides I haven't felt much like eating for the past couple of weeks.  Like Dennis, my Thanksgiving will be a working one this time.  Unlike him, mine will be fun work not work work.  I got an early start and have already gotten 10 tanks sterilized, wiped down and water replaced with dechlorinated water.  I used about 300 gallons of aged water and am filling the storage tanks up as I type.  I squeezed all the sponges inside the chlorinated water and then squeezed out twice in a bucked heavy with dechlor.  I've put them to dry in case I didn't get all the chlorine out.  I can switch them out with tanks that have more than one sponge already cycled so I shouldn't end up with any uncycled tanks. 

I'm taking a break now before I tackle Charlotte which will be more fun.  Her bath and dry will be a piece of cake.  I haven't done a good job on her inside for a long time, but when I first got her she was filthy inside...tidy, but filthy.  I know that it will be easier this time than last.  It will make her feel even more proud of herself than she already is.  Have enough faith in her to know that I won't turn her into a stuck up bimbo.

I looked again at my stuck door.  I don't think that I can get that latch to retract even if I take the door off it's hinges and wack the bolt with a hammer.  If I were to try and fail I would end up having to stick the door back on it's hinges which I have done myself before but isn't a piece of cake.  To try and fail would be a huge irritation to me.  It's Thanksgiving.  I don't want frustration on Thanksgiving.  I shall wait for Mr. Sharp.  He can do everything and will cost less than a locksmith because he will already have my fence fixing job to work on while he's here.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone.

We finally drifted back home. Full, happy, and tired..it's been a busy day....yup...

Grandkids flew all over the place, playing, giggling, and an occasional argument...they're getting a little older now....youngest, Pagie, is about 5....and she is just like one of the boys...LOL....she romps with the best of them, and not a whimper..... she's cute, smart, and tough....she'll go far in life...the boys are brainy too..little minds challenging each other....what a clan.....

Home.....it's so nice and quiet....LOL....but their laughter is still echoing in our heads.....

[Rjb3]

We're just getting starting here. Our daughter Shannon and her boyfriend Adam have just arrived.

Happy Thanksgiving to all.

Reminds me of Barb, Liz and Pauline. All of them...cute, smart, and tough!

Wasn't on here yesterday much, so I'll be catching up today.

I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving and enjoyed their families/friends.

We put together 2 jigsaw puzzles and ate a LOT of turkey, dressing, and noodles! All is good!
