Tuesday, November 4

I can't even tell you what I have done this week.  I certainly didn't accomplish much of anything.  My daughter was home from Saturday til this morning and we did get some time to chat.  Grandson #4 was over as well.   I also spent quite a bit of time catching up with my favorite TV shows.

I  went  to see Cowboy on Friday and he was doing fine.  We had their wonderful catfish and spent a lot of time looking at an old atlas.  I would ask him where in South Dakota he lived as a child.   He couldn't tell me.  We looked at a map of Arizona and New Mexico and he told me there used to be another state in between them.   We looked at some of the places in Europe we visited when we lived in Germany many years ago.  I showed him where I had been on my trip.   It was nice because we were actually conversing even though he was having a little trouble remembering things.

I was going to see him today but it is raining very hard here today and I didn't want to drive in it.  I35 is enough of a challenge on a good day.  I will go tomorrow.  I called him and told him and he was fine.

There is another good reason to wait until tomorrow.  He is to see the dentist to get an impression made so they can modify his bridge.  He likes for me to be nearby when he sees the dentist.

I have started a menu for Thanksgiving.  We are going to have folks over.  Don't know how many yet but will probably be a houseful.  Then I can build a shopping list.

I need to carve out some time to go through the several hundred pictures I took on my trip and print out the best ones.

I will be staying in today for sure.  I can hear the rain beating down.
