whiski_sourCarrie and I went to Aunt Jo's for Thanksgiving dinner. We gave Papa his Christmas present early. We got him a new scooter so he'll have an easier time getting around when they go shopping and stuff. I think Aunt Jo and I were the only ones that didn't have a go on it. Papa was thrilled with it.
After dinner, Aunt Ruby and Uncle Harry stopped by for a bit. It was good to see them.
Aunt Jo, Carrie, Jake, and I played cards after dinner. Nancy and Papa opted to watch TV. The competition was cut throat, as it always is when she play Spit. We all won our share of games, but I took a bigger share of the victories.
Poor Jake. He's a teenager and he thinks himself to be very clever and witty, as teenagers will do, and Carrie and I just took him apart at every opportunity.
Serves him right. He's more annoying than funny.
All in all, it was a good time. Time just flew by. The food was fantastic. I had to be rolled home. The sad things is, I ate some of the leftovers as soon as I got home and now I'm contemplating another piece of pie even though I'd probably have to roll to the kitchen to get it. Man, I love this holiday.
I am thankful for my family and friends. I am thankful for my life and everything in it. And I am thankful that I no longer work retail and can sleep instead of working Black Friday.
To those of you brave/crazy enough to go out tomorrow, good luck.
