Just, Quickly

Unusually for me, it’s after 10:00 and I just got home. My best friend is visiting from California and this was my one opportunity to see her before she heads back on Friday. We went out for dinner, and then hung out at Starbucks over coffee until they closed at 10:00. Really nice visit, but now I’m tired and not up to a full post.

I wanted to wish everyone (in the U.S. at least) a very happy Thanksgiving for tomorrow. I’m hoping the weather will cooperate so that my sister’s family can get down here from the Poconos tomorrow–they might get some snow.

And Mom’s saying her throat is scratchy, and she’s afraid she’s getting sick . . . but I think it’s overflow from the cheering at the Carly Simon concert last night, more than anything else. But hoping she’ll be well for tomorrow. (Oh, and Carly has a new DVD out from her concert on the Queen Mary–which will also be aired on PBS. You know, if any of you are fans. I know Mom would have wanted me to tell you–she’s already watched her copy.)

And, to share a couple links. First–go and congratulate Emma and Oliver, who are finally getting Oliver’s new wheelchair!

Then, go over and check out these adorable gingerbread man ornaments at Tammy’s Polka Dot Mittens.

Have a great day, everyone. Enjoy the turkey, if that’s what you’re having, and be well.

Now, I have to go make up with Chappy for deserting him for several hours tonight…. Whatever was I thinking??

  1. I’ve been on the Queen Mary in the days when she was still in cruise use! I was very small and it was only because my grandfather was chief steward on both Elizabeth and Mary. He gave us a tour one day when she was docked at Southampton and I can remember being completely astounded that I was on a ship when it felt like the inside of some plush landbased hotel. To think that a concert was played on board amazes me still! Glad your Mom obviously had a good old sing song and hope that the throat is only from overuse!
    Happy Thanksgiving.

  2. Happy Thanksgiving to your whole family!

  3. Have a wonderful Thanksgiving Deb – Hugs to Chappy too!

  4. Happy Thanksgiving. :-)

  5. Hall’s cough drops or Ricola drops might be good for your Mom… sorry I don’t live next door or you could have some! Chappy’s loved by everybody…he’ll love Turkey Day! Sigh. Yes, there’s snow and sleet and Wind coming your direction…. Happy Thanksgiving!

  6. Happy Thanksgiving!!
