Happy Thanksgiving! I called David and Jan (at Jan’s) [Dave, my brother, Jan my sister] late morning. They were cooking and preparing Thanksgiving lunch/dinner! They’re expecting to have 10 people at the table! Wish I could be #11!
I learned from David that he had found a place to move [he is retired] closer to dear friends and to Jan. [He has lived in Baltimore, MD for over 40 years] He has found an ideal place in Calabash, N.C. [geographically convenient] [of course, on a golf course]……I’m so happy for him! I think it is a good move! [He is approaching his 70’s]
Nothing changed for lunch today! It was still a peanut butter sandwich and a glass of kool-aid…except…there was a football game on. I watched some football, off and on, but also wrote 4 letters…[This is an extremely productive day! Usually three letters is about all the handwriting I can do. More tiring than one would think]
The jail-to their credit-provide a nice Thanksgiving dinner. We had turkey and dressing, mashed potatoes,[real]green beans, and corn, plus a couple of cookies. The portions were heavier than normal.[the food was tasty too-no complaints] I finished the meal quite filled.
I read more of the book about Perry March. Book has me captivated! Really enjoying it. [“An Unfinished Canvas” By Michael Glasgow and Phyllis Gobbell]
A guy-one of the loud bullies-got released at 5am. I’ve learned by his example of rage. He is filled with it! Therefore, hereafter, any rage from me will be more suppressed and infrequent. This has been one positive thing to come out of jail for me. I am thankful for this! [ more in-depth blog on this topic in the future]
I am truly blessed, regardless!
