Ever since the news release came out about my book, I have been receiving calls from all over the country from companies wanting me to invest $$ to promote it. I'm glad I screen calls. Cousin #2 jumped the Subaru and took it for a drive. When she came back and shut it off, it wouldn't start. I really think the new battery needs to be replaced. My washer is not fixed. Yay! Monday cousin #2 can start doing some laundry. Guess what? Cousin #2 is coming over for Thanksgiving and making dinner!!! That was quite a nice surprise. I guess my Meals on Wheels meal can go into the freezer. Cousin #2 has started on taking bags of aluminum cans to the recycling center. Maybe eventually I will have use of the dining room again!!! She is going to use the $$ to buy Thanksgiving dinner. I changed the appointment tomorrow with the nephrologist to a closer location; but I couldn't get in until MARCH! Cousin #2 put the copper wool in the spaces in the back basement door. Maybe that will cut down on the number of mice coming in. Breakfast - Fruit and nut bar Lunch - Meals on Wheels - Salisbury steak, red cabbage, green beans Dessert/Snack - Natural brownie, unsalted peanuts, 70% dark chocolate Dinner - Chicken/vegan cheese sandwich, veggie straws, blueberries What did you eat yesterday?

Sounds like you’re going to have a nice Thanksgiving. Definitely a battery problem there. I didn’t go out, so I had grilled cheese and chicken soup for lunch and beef stew for dinner. Fiber and applesauce and LOTS of hot tea!

@Dreamerby — I drink hot tea a lot in the winger because I have a “condition” (more a nuisance) called Raynaud’s syndrome, and I get unusually cold when I drink a cold beverage.

Yes, it's a pleasant surprise. I hate being alone all the time.

Since we have the town water instead of a well we are going through a lot of bottles of water. They pile up fast. I have an appointment tomorrow as well. Mine is a dental appointment. I hope they do a better job this time than they did 6 months ago. They left plaque behind.

Nice about the T giving dinner. I had salmon with veggies and rice yesterday. Salmon is good, and so good for you. I wish I could get myself to eat it mire.

Isn't that always the way? You achieve something and all those fools who don't know you wants a piece of that pie. Cheeeeze.

The battery needs to be fully recharged in a garage, a short drive does not help, she should drive on a highway 40 minutes at good speed to recharge the battery. I am glad she comes for Thanksgiving.

Sounds like a good day and cousin #2 got a lot done. How nice that she'll come over and make Thanksgiving dinner and you won't be alone. Glad the washer is fixed and I guess the next thing on the list will be getting a new battery for the car. We had chili last night which hit the spot on a chilly day.

You wrote “my washer is not fixed”; did you mean “it is now fixed”? Weird that the new car battery is not working.

I had half of a bbq sandwich (no bun) and some protein bars and a handful of chips. I can't wait to see how the new paid lady is going to fit in with you.
