Notes and Good Wishes

Eugene, Oregon
November 23, 2021 1:26pm CST
It was time to get another tank of gas for my car, so on my way to Costco (cheapest gas around here), I noticed the local Chevron station had regular at $3.89 a gallon. I filled mine at Costco for $3.31 a gallon, so I saved a bit. Yesterday was sunny and mild until about 6 PM, when we had a downpour of rain again. We have showers today not to cold at 50 F (10 C) with near freezing over night. No need to go anywhere today, so am doing some cleaning, since my daughter will be here Thursday. Tomorrow, I'm picking up some Vegan dishes she ordered at Whole Foods. I'm hoping that all who celebrate have a great and safe Thanksgiving!

It was sunny and very cold here today. I hope that Friday it will not rain too much as I have to go out.

@JamesHxstatic - I hope that you, Anne and your daughter have a lovely Thanksgiving. It is so nice that Whole Foods sells vegan options. We have so many different eating preferences and allergies to deal with in our family, I am always thrilled when I can find premade dishes that satisfy them!

I can imagine that, with a large family, it can get complicated. I hope that you and your family have a great day as well.

@JamesHxstatic - Yes, it's a big family, and always a challenge to feed them all, and please them all, at the same time. We have one vegan, two who cannot handle glutton, a couple who are lactose intolerant, my husband has his kidney diet restrictions, and there are always a few who are trying to lose weight. Feeding them is a nightmare ... we can't even do something simple like spaghetti and meatballs when we all get together! My husband has his ups and downs. Some days are better than others. I hope he makes it through the holidays without overdoing it. Happy Thanksgiving!
