Thanksgiving Eve
Between Phil and You
November 24 at 10:51am
Good morning! I hope your day is off to a great start. It is a bright, clear sunny day, but wicked cold and WINDY. They mentioned “wind chill” on the radio for the first time this season – feels like 16 degrees out. Eeep. The leaves are swirling and dancing in the streets. At least it’s not precipitating on all the travelers!

Getting ready to bail out of here to forge through all the traffic. Promises to be a miserable drive. I’m well rested and it’s a gorgeous day though so not so bad. Can’t wait to start cooking. Have a great day!

We’re closing the office at 12:30 pm. Hooray! Call me if you want someone to help make the trip go faster. 🙂

It’s wicked quiet here. No student workers to entertain us. They’ve scattered to the four winds, literally.

Hoping your drive isn’t too bad. I am so thankful we don’t have to drive anywhere today! I had yummy Chinese leftovers for lunch – spicy Yu Shiang eggplant with chicken!
[Philip called me about 4:30 pm and we talked for an hour while he drove to the beach]

Good morning! Happy Thanksgiving! Happy Football Day! I hope your holiday is off to a great start. It’s wicked cold here…below freezing for the first time. Only 31 now, but headed to the hi 40’s. There are no vehicles at all in the lot! That is a rare sight… Have a fabulous day!

Happy Thanksgiving! Turkey is in the oven, potatoes peeled. Reading the paper and getting ready for the parade. Weather feels nice here today. Have a great day!

Hope you had a wonderful holiday. Thanks for keeping me smiling during the long wait for dinner. You’re so cute when you are hatin’ on the Pats. 🙂
Quiet evening – Hubby went to a huge party. So it’s me and the cat keeping an eye on football. Whee… Strangely sleepy – must be turkey. Sleep well, sweet man.

Game is winding down. Nice way to end the day. Black Friday tomorrow. Been a nice day. Glad yours was too.
You know turkey does have some chemicals that are linked to sleepiness!
