0949- well, will omit the "good" and just recognize it is morning....
mostly sunny, sorta warm- basic chores will be it for today- In the spirit of giving, my wife gave me her cold 2 days ago and it is now in full bloom.
Yesterday was good though, cold was only starting to show and I still had an appetite! Went to my Mother's where we had a wonderful dinner and evening. Unfortunatly my middle brother and his wife couldn't make it and were missed.
Mom did an awesome job roasting the turkey, best I have tasted in a while. Perhaps...maybe...because we raised it this year? perhaps...maybe....because I won the fight on slaughtering day?
Seriously- this one tried to kill ME! My wife was "holding" the wings and I was holding the head (hanging from the feet). when it started to flap- my wife stood there holding a handful of feathers looking befuddled...... as I was being beaten soundly about the head and shoulders. It was several seconds into the attack that I came to my senses (or maybe it knocked the sense into me?), let go and crawled away.
Ahhh...sweet victory indeed.
Roy- I like you advise on the dumpster and beverages. A couple of years ago, we had a small fire causing lots of smoke damage. Insurance company provided a big roll off. Decided it was time to get rid of a lot of stuff.... Lucky for me, my tractor could drive into it (just barely) and I was able to pack a whole lot of stuff in it!
