    Howdy all y'all. It's fabulous Friday!

    We have 4 (C) mostly sunny degrees (feels like 1) with an expected sunny high of 9 and 2% chance of precipitation. Sounds like a lovely, if a bit chilly, day for all the Black Friday shoppers. I will not be joining that crowd. I haven't in years, just enjoying a quiet day at home instead, eating leftovers and eyeing the bathroom scale warily.

    I do have some laundry to fold.

    good morning all
    Sounds like you all had a nice Thanksgiving with yummy food all around!
    Thanksgiving was great, did not go as planned, but still wonderful to get together. Pete was not feeling well, went to the walk-in clinic in the a.m. to find out he has bronchitis. Maddie also wasn't feeling well so she and her Mom stayed home. The dishes were all delicious with lots of leftovers, even after packing some up to go. I put the turkey bones in a pot and made some soup after everyone left. Also poured myself some wine.
    It's currently 38F,3C. Cloudy skies early, followed by partial clearing. High 43F, 6C. Winds W at 10 to 20 mph. Looks gray and cold outside. Mostly highs in the 30s the next 10 days.
    No special plans for today. I am not a black Friday shopper. Good luck to those of you who are!
    Wishing all a nice relaxing Friday! ☁️🌥️🍂🕊️🍷

    Good morning;
    Ed-sounds like your food was a hit all around.
    Vix-Sorry Pete and Maddie were not feeling well. I hope they feel better soon.
    We had a nice relaxing day. It rained all day, so we were not able to get in our walk.
    I am not a Black Friday shopper anymore. I was when my kids were little.
    It is currently 29F with a high of 39F and sunny.
    Today I plan to put up a few decorations. Since we will not be home for the holidays, I plan
    to keep it simple.
    Have a great weekend. :)

    good morning all.
    Thanks, Jo. They gave Pete a Z-Pack, so he's starting to feel better. Glad you had a relaxing day. I switched out my wreath and put out a few decorations too.
    Hi Ed and Irene.
    My daughter and I took the 2 little ones out to a Christmas light festival on a farm last night. It was fun. They had a beautifully lit up path to follow with blow up characters and kids holiday scenes all along the way with music from the various movies etc. There was a little house with someone dressed as the Grinch inside, he pretended to be sleeping on a couch and when we walked in he stood up and looked mean, as the Grinch does. Lilly got scared, and ran out. It was a really good Grinch! We had to coax her in to Santa's house, but she finally went in.
    It's currently 26F, -3C. Partly cloudy. High near 35F, -2C. Winds WNW at 10 to 15 mph. BRRRRRRRRR!
    Wishing all a fun/relaxing weekend! 🌤️☕🍂🍷🕊️

    Howdy all y'all. It's satisfying Saturday!

    We have 3 (C) sunny degrees with an expected sunny high of 10 and 0% chance of precipitation. So far it's been a lovely, albeit chilly, Thanksgiving weekend.

    I still have some turkey, ham, and cornbread dressing left, and some of the frozen rolls, but I may save some of those rolls for Christmas. I ate all the gravy I prepared, but may make another cup to have with the rest of the dressing.

    We took a break from Thanksgiving food last night and ordered pizza. So that was my breakfast too.

    To be fair, Jason had eaten the last of his Indian food for Friday lunch so there wasn't any of his Thanksgiving food left anyway, but we could have made him some Asian noodle dish rather than order pizza, but I usually take a break from my leftovers either Friday night or Saturday.

    Still staying at home, so no shopping madness for me. At least not until tomorrow, for regular grocery shopping. It should surprise no one that I still have that laundry to fold. LOL.

    Howdy all y'all. It's sumptuous Sunday!

    We have 0 (C) mostly sunny degrees with an expected mostly sunny high of 12 and 1% chance of precipitation.

    It continues to be a lovely Thanksgiving weekend. Breakfast this morning was the last of the ham, with some mashed potatoes (I made a single serve cup) and a couple of scrambled eggs.

    There is still some turkey left, along with cornbread dressing and the rest of the turkey gravy. I will probably eat about half the remaining food for lunch, and the rest can be another meal, maybe supper tonight.

    Still haven't folded that laundry yet.

    Thanks, Irene, Pete is starting to feel a little better. Cool that you were able to maintain your weight.
    Ed, I did some cleaning this morning, and put in a load of laundry. We still have turkey, cranberry sauce, some rolls, and a tiny bit of salad left. Pete made a roast last night, guess he needed a break from the turkey too!
    Hi Jo, hope you're getting some relaxation time, and planning for your vacation.
    It's currently 32F, 0C. Mostly cloudy with snow showers around this morning. High 39F, 4C. Winds W at 10 to 15 mph. Chance of snow 40%. No snow so far.
    Went outside with the 2 little ones and my daughter this a.m., kicking a ball around. They think they're playing soccer. 😂
    Wishing all a fun/relaxing Sunday. 🌥️☕❄️🍷🕊️
