Hi Adele,
That was a long time to have to wait for that test. I am praying that it comes back negative for them and all that were at the baptism. This covid is really getting tiresome. I am really getting tired of this.
It will be nice to have Gary, Bobby, Tillie and JJ there. I hope Steph will come and bring Aizen. She needs to celebrate for the boys sake. They need to feel like things are normal.
I could not believe the way that Tyra was dressed tonight. You would think out of that many changes she could have found at least one cute dress. I could not believe the first dress she had on. It made her look two times bigger then what she is. I wonder if she has someone help her pick those outfits out. She cannot have that bad of taste. I was not happy with the winner. I usually am wrong at the one I pick out.
I hope that you are feeling better. Your meal that you are fixing sounds really good. I guess that we are having store bought pies this year. There will not be as much home cooking here this year.
Well that is all from here. Have a great day and stay safe.
Colleen

Hi Gail,
That is so aggravating when you want to do something and it does not work out the way you planned. It is a good thing that Greg had not installed them on all the shelves that would have not been fun taking them back off.
It is surprising how much these guys can do when they have to. Ron has also been doing some laundry. I will not let him do my Quacker clothes cause there is no telling what they would look like. lol I have to get some of my Christmas gifts wrapped. Danyielle wants some storage dishes so got her some lock and lock. I hope she likes hers as much as I like mine. I ordered her two sets.
That is a good way to do your Thanksgiving dinner. I do not know if we are going to have potatoes this year or not. We will have stuffing two different kinds and that is what they like the most. Have you ever tried their broccoli casserole? One comes with this and it looks really good.
I love all the memes that you have posted. They are all so funny. It is interesting that you can go to that rest stop and get a wife. I wonder if they get any takers.
I found out that if you have a babies car seat in the car then insurance has to pay for it. You cannot use them again once they have been in a accident. That was something else that I did not know.
Well I hope you have a great night and stay safe.

Hi Adele,
I thank God that is all that was wrong with me. I was also glad that the baby and Brook is doing fine. I was really worried about them. Ron was lucky also he did not have anything wrong with him either. We were all really lucky and we Thank God that we survived.
Your Thanksgiving meal sounds really good. You will have enough people ther to eat with you and enjoy the day. You will always have Amanda and Bobby they live there. That makes it nice and I hope that Tillie will come upstairs to eat with you. I am sorry to hear that Enzo was exposed to covid. I hope they all test negative. Is Enzo still working for the post office? I know Johnny was working there but I thought that Enzo was also.
I hope that you start to feel better soon. At least feeling good for Thanksgiving. You really been having a lot of health issues this year hopefully 2021 will be a better year for all of us.
Have a great night and stay safe.

Hi All,
Well I am back again. There just is not a lot to write about. I can’t do much of anything until my leg is better. The excitement of the day is walking around the house. I have to have the brace on all the time and when I walk I have to use a walker. It is just so aggravating but I have to keep remembering that it could be worse. Maybe after the 2nd of December I will be able to quit using the walker . They have to take another x-ray of my leg and decide what to do next.
I have a lot of catching up to do but have enough time to get it done. Ron has been doing all the cooking and cleaning. It has been interesting. He is turning into a good cook.
This year I ordered sides from qvc. We bought a turkey so we will stuff that and cook it. What is everyone else doing for Thanksgiving? Are you going to cook the food that you usually cook or eat something else? My daughter that lives close to us is coming over and help with the cooking. I do not think that Ron will do very well with a turkey. lol I would like to see Grayson and my grand daughters. I have not seen them since the accident and I worry about Brook and the baby. They were with us when we had the wreck.
Well that is about all from here. I hope that everyone is feeling well and finding things to keep busy. Please take stay safe and have a great night.
Colleen

Our care is totaled I was the only one that was hurt. I have a broken leg and two black eyes. I have a big knot on my head.

Hi Gail,
I is nice that they will be able to stay where they are until Ethan gets out of high school. I am not sure they did that before it is something new. Well new to us we had never heard of it before. It is sad when they pull kids out of school in the middle of their junior year or the middle of their senior year. It is so hard on he kids. Kim must have had a hard time moving like that.
I feel bad for these small business owners. They keep closing them down they will not survive. We already lost one really good restaurant in the town close to us. They had to close they could not open for so long and they were new. They had really good food and it was a reasonable price. We have another restaurant in town but their food is really greasy and almost makes me sick. There has to be a way to help these places.
Brook will be fine. She needed to get away from that place and work where she will have better hours. They are steady hours and she gets them ahead of time. She did not have a schedule like that at Kentucky Fried. I just hope that she likes it and can stay there for a long time. She had to quit school it was too much. Maybe she will be able to go back second semester and try again. She will have a better schedule and can work her classes around it.
I am feeling better. It is always like that right after I get my flu shot. My arm is sore also.
Mandy is working at the Dollar Store. When supplies start getting low at the store in St. Louis people come down here and shop at our stores. Mandy said that they had to put limits on items when they were doing that. She is hoping if they start that up again that people will not come down here. They will have to start to limit things again. She even had people that would come here from Illinois. It was funny because they had limits and they brought kids with them and tried to get over the limit by having their kids check things out. They got caught and Many had to tell them they could not do that they were going over the limit. The woman got mad but Mandy did not give in. She said that she did not want go thru that again.
I am not sure what costume that they will have Grayson in. I am going to have to ask her. I cannot wait to see him. She will bring him to the house and I will give him baby food for his bag. Do you know what your grands are going to be for Halloween?
Well that is all from here. Have a good night and stay safe.

Hi Adele,
Brook found another job. She now works at Wal-Mart. She went today for orientation and they gave her a schedule for the next two weeks. So she was really happy to get a job. I am not sure where she will be working there but she is making more money to start then she was making at Kentucky Fried. So this all worked out really well for her.
My kids are all back in school again. They are really happy to be back. They check all the kids and they are doing fine. Aliza is wearing a mask now. At first she did not like them but now she doesn’t care. It took her awhile and she wears it all day at school.
We will not wear masks here with just the family here. We will not have any extra people this year. It will seem strange because we are use to having other people here for the holidays.
Aliza sends me texts it was Piper that sent Gail a letter. Yhat is cute that she did that. She put butterflies on the envelope which really means a lot to Gail. She loves butterflies.
That is sad that Aizen is so sad. He may need to be around you more so he can get use to all of this. The more Steph keeps him away the harder it will be for him.
Your soup looks really good. It is a shame we cannot reach thru the screen and get a taste. It would be a good meal with this cold and wet weather.
I am sorry to hear that Tillie is sick all the time now. It is hard to be sick to your stomach all the time like that. I wish there was something she could eat that would not make her sick. I will be praying for her and Little Aizen
Have a great night and stay safe.
Colleen
