Thursday Updates

(1)  The ring and I are slowly bonding.  I wore it yesterday and I'm starting to appreciate it -- even though it's bigger than I expected.  I think we're going to be fine ;)

(2)  Costco run and the paper goods hoarding has begun again in earnest.  Totally out of TP, only store brand of paper towels and not cart to be found without a pack.  The store is almost totally out and people are going nuts.  My sister is having a shortage in PA too and was told there is a temporary problem with the supply chain.  More is coming, don't panic.  We know how well that works.

(3)  Kids are under quarantine AGAIN.  My DIL's boss has COVID and she spend significant work time with her.  They were masked, but this feels like the most direct exposure she's had -- dang.  Only the youngest for football this weekend.

(4)  I got the Costco organic turkey so I'm cooking the small, TJ's one this weekend.  Turkey sammies for the games on Sunday.  Why not do Thanksgiving preview instead of leftovers -- I like this idea twist.  For as much as chicken is sometimes off putting to me, turkey is one of my favorite meats (I hope that's still true).  

(5)  I finished Belonging and am moving ahead with Mexican Gothic.  The book was very good -- all the things I'm learning about belonging in lots of details and added dreamwork discussions.  If you're into this kind of stuff, its well worth the read.

(6)  Blue is a firecracker.  FULL of energy and trying to rule the roost.  Total chihuahua and I love it.  We took him to the park yesterday and he had a good time.  He's scared of cars so after a bit, he was finished -- not bad for a first walk though.  I'm still paranoid that he's going to get out.  He watches the doors now -- looking for an adventure.  Also, we need to watch EVERYTHING because without distraction, shoes and books and all things are chewable.  LOL.  FOUR little pounds and that much destruction.  

(7)  Gibbs Gardens with my girlfriend today.  It'll be nice to walk and chat.  I won't see her for a couple of weeks so I'm glad we can get together today.

Have a happy day -- find that good.  Stay well.  Later gators.
