The Turd Of November And We Are Busy Again!

If you’re a girl and participate in no shave November, prepare for dateless December.

Oh My!  The clocks have to be reset on Sunday morning.

I was up early, and as I peered over the end of the bed, Scout The Wonder Dog was still sound asleep wearing my jammie bottoms.  I thought he might be cold since we slept with the windows open!

The baby still had on my jammies when I got up at 6:00 AM

We had our morning coffee and discussed the day.  Them we walked Five Miles.  We are so happy Scout allows us to change his name.  I told Mary, “I don’t get it. The trail looked so flat on the map.”

We walk early, and that is always fun.  As I mentioned to Mary, “If there’s one thing I’ve learned from hiking, it’s that the early bird gets the face full of spider webs.”

The fog was beginning to burn off.  We could see the hills behind our home reappear.

The fog was intense while we were having our morning coffee.

The picture reminded me of the movie “Brigadoon.” The Legend: The legend of Brigadoon is the story of a mythical village in the Scottish Highlands. The town became enchanted centuries ago, remaining unchanged and invisible to the outside world except for one special day every hundred years when outsiders could see and even visit.

Leftovers from Halloween?

We did chores, put up Thanksgiving, and searched for the remaining Halloween decorations when we got home.  Mary found the blow-up turkey, and he looks pretty good in the living room!

Mr. Turkey sits in a place of honor!

Robin came over about 6:00 PM, and we made dinner.  Fresh eggplant from the garden coupled with homemade breadcrumbs and cheese, we had a delightful dinner.  We added to that three pieces of pizza from last Saturday and margaritas.   We were ready to watch TV.

Robin joined us for dinner and a movie!

We are not sure what to call it, but it was NOT fried; baked and healthy!

Eggplant directly from our garden!

We decided it was time for a Christmas movie, so Robin suggested “Christmas Vacation.”

Mary had not seen it before and laughed herself silly.  Great fun with the family! We laughed so hard we dern near fell off the couch.

Robin stayed over and is going to join us at “Girls Night out!”

About Paul

Just an old retired guy trying to finish out my last years on this planet. I lost my best friend and wife in early 2020. I was blessed again by reconnecting with Dr. Mary Côté, a long-time friend. Mary and I got married July 28th, 2021, and are enjoying life together and plan to spend the rest of our lives being a blessing to our friends and family.
