In the morning we went to the gym and them slowly prepared to go to Thanksgiving dinner down the hill at cousin Lee’s at 2. We were about 20 minutes late but it was just us and their family so all good. Lee made a great turkey on the Traeger which is a pellet smoker. We bbq’d some tomahawk steaks I bought at Edwards whenwe arrived. There were all kinds of sides rivaling the number at Grandma Miller’s when we were kids. When I say rivaling I mean more than normal but not anywhere near as many as at Grandma’s or nearly as good. I just ate turkey, steak and salad though. We stayed until around 5;30. It was fun for all of us to be with family.
Lee seems a lot older than me even though he only has three years on me. He moves slow, like you’d think a grandfather would and just had a couple surgeries with the second one being on his right eye and he still can’t see too good out of it. Margret is great and full of life and of course their boys being mid 30’s are in their prime. Then there’s little Theo or Ted named after Uncle Ted Christian, Lee’s dad and my uncle. He brings a lot of fun and amazement as any 4 or 5 year old does. It was a really nice time.
Later in the evening Jag went out to see some friends and when coming home slid into a rock in a roundabout. He crunched the front fender on the driver side of his car. At least he wasn’t hurt. His car will need to wait to be fixed though until Mom’s estate is settled or our townhome sells. I suspect it’ll be thousands of dollars, ugh. Again though, good news is he’s ok. God Bless.
Ty was playing a video game with friends all night as I texted him at 3:30 am to go to bed. He replied quickly, “got it”.
We have an inch or snow of snow, not a lot but probably more in Vail and closer to the pass. It’s Black Friday which doesn’t mean a lot anymore. Everything is on line and honestly, we haven’t even thought about Christmas shopping. We’re just trying to get through each day. Tommy texted last night that CU is playing football today as earlier I think their game was cancelled with another team who didn’t have enough player to make up a team due to the virus. Seems like a lot more people are getting it this time around. We’re all trying to be safe.
Guess I’ll go. Hope everyone’s holiday was great. Make the best of what you have! God Bless.
