Today was not a bad day to go to the World Market (Cost Plus).  There were a few things I knew I wanted from there.  They were actually not very busy.  That is good for me to shop but it does not look too good for the holiday season. 

My leg is mostly healed... so I need to keep the scar soft so it will 'remodel' without a heavy scar.  It will also make it more comfortable.  The skins feels tight and it itches.  The skin is fragile... I don't dare scratch it but I do rub it gently.  I got some vitamin A & E oil to put on it.  I hope it does the trick. 

Jeanette sounded good today.  It sounded like a good crew for Thanksgiving.  Daddy was there. 

I haven't made reservations for Christmas yet.  I'm not sure what my time will look like.  We'll see. 

Thanksgiving Day

Well, the Thanksgiving meal did not get made.  My CFIDS kicked in and my body just would not work... so, Saturday will be Thanksgiving again. 

Linda, Jim and Jim met me at Sherri's for dinner.  They had a Thanksgiving special.  Pie was delicious - Apple, cranberry, cream cheese pie.  (Try it if you get a chance.)

I watched Glee.  I enjoy listening and watching the music, the plot is a bit thin.  I've been watching an old series called Forever Knight.  Vampires.  It is fun but also a bit thin on plot. 

As I may be unemployed for Christmas I will try to make Christmas presents.  I'm going to try making some boxes and maybe doing something with an some old books.  Lots of interesting ideas but I'm not sure who gets what!  I'm open to suggestions! 

Robyn called from Jeanette's.  It was a small gathering.  Jeanette, Leo, Robyn, Mike, Leo's Mom, Leo's brother and Leo's nephew.  It sounded like it was good.  I'll call the family tomorrow. 

I'll try to call a few friends too.

I am sitting in my recliner doing all kinds of things... none of them are a priority.

Tomorrow I'm cooking. Thanksgiving in my studio apartment for four or five people. I'll make pies first thing tomorrow morning then clean while they bake. Dinner will come after that... with the meat, turkey and ham, going into the the oven as soon as the pies come out. I'm planning on dinner about 2.

There are requests for cherry, pecan and apple. Harper's favorite is Chocolate Cream... I'm not sure if that will get made or not.

Today at work was a hard. Only Monday to go. Monday is going to be very hard. They are taking me to lunch. Then I'll file for unemployment.

There is some paperwork to do that will be done this weekend.

Robyn is in Denver for Thanksgiving this year. She will be in France for Christmas for her nephew's christening. I'll miss her.

Christmas time will be in Denver. I plan to spend some time catching up with people. Daddy will be a priority.

Robyn received her Christmas Tree today. She laughed at me. The mail room at her work was confused... I sent it to Robyn Breggin instead of Axberg. Apparently, I reverted when I ordered it for her.

More later...
