It was good to see family yesterday on Thanksgiving: my cousin Kay (she hosted the event) and her husband and two kids, my two aunts and their husbands, my nephew Caleb and wife Mandie, my cousin's aunt and uncle on her dad's side, two dogs Skiddles and Hairy (both girls). We laughed a lot, ate a lot, talked a lot. Kay and I got to go through some of my Grandma Rose's jewelry and pictures. I brought some of the stuff home. It's not really my style, but I may wear some of the pins. I mainly brought stuff home to be able to touch my grandmother's life.
I watched the most recent Indiana Jones movie this morning on pay-per-view. I liked it a lot. Yay for Harrison Ford and his being able to keep up with the action!
The dog is sitting on my foot right now. I like it.
I'm home alone today except for the dog. He's a good boy.
I know someone through a co-worker who was going to shop most of the night last night. I am mostly a non-shopper, so I don't understand shopping all night. I think that ranks right up there with the torture of water dripping on the forehead.
I wish I had some elves to put up the Christmas tree and decorate the house. I guess I do have elves named Gary and Aaron, but I think they are more trolls when it comes to Christmas decorating (although they usually will help setting the tree up and getting the boxes of decoration for me. I guess I shouldn't look a Christmas troll in the mouth ((or the ear, nose or eye))). Don't you like all those parentheses?
My husband has two containers of peanuts sitting on the computer table. He called me a little while ago and told me that I shouldn't give the dog any peanuts out of the jar but to give him peanuts out of the can. He doesn't want the dog to know there are peanuts in the jar. He doesn't want to get him starting begging when he sees the jar, but it's okay if he begs when the can is open. My husband is a dog whisperer.
I left my coffee and scoop at Kay's house. Humph.

Yes, and I made myself some real coffee this morning. I'm home now after ignoring my grandkids the whole time I was there. No, wait a minute! They ignored me! They really enjoy electronics. Need I say more? Great kids though. The three of us ate about three pumpkin pies for supper and breakfast. They don't ask me to babysit very often. :)
We noticed the coffee, also, one of my aunts left a scarf. So far, that's all I've found.
I'm kinda thinking the dog will smell peanuts whether they are in a can or a jar. But I'm no whisperer, so what do I know.
I understand the peanut thing. I, myself, am a cat whisperer. Don't try to understand it...just do it. :)
