Thanksgiving

With some school work coming up this week, time devoted to writing should be devoted to that so I’ll be skipping over a few days to write a little about this past Thanksgiving before I likely skip another couple days. Jeff was in town this weekend so we had the whole immediate family at home for this Thanksgiving. Mom and Dad spent the morning cooking. We had a nice turkey. Dad made his signature sweet potato casserole and oyster dressing. We also had a corn bread dressing, mashed potatoes, salad, cranberry sauce and probably a couple things I’m forgetting. Everything was delicious, of course. Later in the afternoon we went to visit Aunt Doris and all the people who gathered at her house including Aunt Mimi and Dad’s sister’s family. As usual there was plenty of rowdy talk about indiscretions of youth.I had the day off on Friday and didn’t do much of anything. Late that evening I watched Coraline before bed.

August 26: Progress
Nearly two months have passed since my last post. Seeing a June date on my homepage after all this time has finally compelled me to throw another entry on here. I had planned a nice little summary of my month of jury duty at Orleans Criminal District Court but I couldn’t muster the enthusiasm. I [...]
