HAPPY THANKSGIVING

Since as far back as I can remember, I've been surrounded by family & friends @Thanksgiving. Many of my friends had no family close by so I would always invite them to join us. "No one should be alone @the holidays' I would always say.

Since John & I don't have family here, we have carried on this tradition with friends. This year, however, is a little different for us. It was going to be just John & I and our friend James but friends have invited us to join them for dinner. What a wonderful surprise ! ! !

I can remember by sister-in-law Maureen saying how strange it felt not to be cooking and now I understand what she meant. I feel like a fish out of water not cooking but it'll be nice to sit back, relax and enjoy the food and fellowship.

I sincerely hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving filled with family, friends, good food, lots of laughs & good times.

Much love to you and your family this season in which to give thanks . . .

THE HEATER HAS ARRIVED ! ! !

Now it has to be installed (plumbed in) and then we have to get an electrician to put in a 60 amp whatever and then we just have to wait until March to use it.

I am so very excited . . .

The heater is coming . . . the heater is coming ! ! !

Wahoo ! ! ! Our pool heater will be delivered & installed on Friday and then we'll need the electrician to run the line. Then we'll be ready to go except that we are experiencing unusually cold weather right now but it'll be here when it warms up again . . . hip hip hooray ! ! !

I am sooooooo excited ! ! !
