This is the first day of Thanksgiving week. So I figure this qualifies as a holiday as well. And Emily has the week off so its even more holiday.
Today was like Saturday. Walter the electrician came out to finish. He worked all day and did not finish the job. Maybe next week. Morning duties exactly same as Saturday. No house cleaning today, that’s a good difference. Walter did not cut through anymore pipes. I like that. Em and I cleaned the glass house. There is now more room though prob not enough to make it more useful. But it’s cleaner.
Marika left for work at about noon. We continued our cleanup, and I kept an eye on the boys doing the electrical, out back. They need some supervision.
Emily decided we should go advent/stocking shopping. So we loaded up the truck and drove to Beverly. No, Roseville. We spent about an hour at each store we stopped at, except for Cost Plus. Two hours there which included time to search for the prizes they hide in the store. We did not find one. After that off to REI and spent an easy hour there as well. Took a couple calls too while shopping. Spent a was. Nothing exciting, sorry to disappoint.
Next up, Winco! My fave grocery store. We shopped for our Thanksgiving meal. Didn’t take too long and we got everything we need. For under $70.
Went back home. Emily made split pea soup for dinner which is a family fave. We all love it. Emily and I wanted to start eating before Marika got home. But, she called and said she would be home soon. So we waited for her.
Marika got home just past seven. And we served up. All of us were ready for soup. Pea soup is fantastic. Dinner tonight is great. My only question, how do they split all those peas.
Now is the time for bad TV. Then bed. Emily has the day off which means I do too. Not so much to do in the am. I look forward to it.
it’s bedtime now. I have to go. I am falling asleep.
