Tuesday Morning Brief

Good morning. I'm a little later getting here than usual. It's okay, I was still up at my usual time. Though, I was down for my morning nap before 5:30. I just couldn't keep awake. I got an hour and a half. I feel totally rejuvenated. As soon as I post this, I will head down to the community room and ride the bike. I didn't do that yesterday. So, yesterday was a fantastic day. My friend called to remind me I needed to be at the book club meeting at the ADRC. Yes, I forgot again, but I knew Alexa would alert me in plenty of time. The meeting went great. I sold 8 books. I read the first chapter of Legacy. I had two of those and sold them both. I took orders for two more. I also sold a copy of each of Thread of Evidence and Vendetta, Scarred, Manifest Destiny, Stowaway, and Freedom's Cry. It was a very good day. My grandson texted me earlier to find out if I would be home. Of course, I told him I had no plans for the day. I needed to text him back and tell him I would be out until mid-afternoon. He arrived bearing a turkey. His work gave everyone a turkey for Thanksgiving. He didn't need it as he is on his way to Florida this morning. He's going to Universal with his uncle and cousin. His cousin is playing in a band at the park. He also brought his dog, Mac, and I got some fur baby love. After he left, I called my daughter, his mother, and talked for almost two hours. Fantastic! It's the longest conversation I've ever had with her. We talked about everything. Her birthday in New Orleans was wonderful. She went on a few tours while she was there. She also told me Jayten's cousin was playing in the band at Universal. He didn't tell me that. So, it was a good day yesterday in every way. So were my calories. I totaled 951 calories for the day and 20 fiber. All right, that's the morning brief. Now, to get my exercise taken care of and get back here for the notifications. My son's girlfriend will pick me up when she gets done with work to go Thanksgiving grocery shopping. I also want to finish Love's Illusions today. I finally figured out how to end this one. It's only taken over 20 years. How is your day shaping up? The picture is of my grandson and Mac.

That is wonderful! Now, the big question is when are you cooking that turkey and for whom?

Thursday morning, my son, his girlfriend, her father and mother, and of course, me. I'm missing someone. My son said there will be six at the table.

Your Monday does sound fantastic all the way around. Love the picture of your grandson and Mac. My daughter used to have a dog that look just like Mac and he was the most docile dog. Can't beat getting a visit from your grandson and some fur baby love. Enjoy your day and hope the store isn't too crowded for your shopping.

@just4him you might not hit too many people at the store since you're going after lunch and before dinner.

Thank you. I'm glad you like the picture. I need to figure out what's wrong with my camera. The pictures were all blurry, some worse than others. He is docile. He roamed the entire apartment a few times before he decided I was okay and came and gave me some love. I hope it won't be too, but it is right before Thanksgiving. The fact we're going right after lunch, she gets off work at 1, will make a difference. I hope so. Though I love shopping, it won't phase me.

Thank you. Yes, he is. My daughter sent me pics of her grandchildren, my great-grandchildren. My granddaughter doesn't send me photos unless I beg for them. The pics were Halloween pics. The kids were adorable! London is a year old and dressed as Beetlejuice.
