Once again, time got away from me! We have all been going at 90 MPH for a few weeks. We are just days away from Thanksgiving Break, so I'm hoping we'll have some down time for a change!
JP and I have been working hard to winterize the garden. I dug all the carrots a couple of weeks ago, which was the last harvest to do.
Two of the carrots were locked in an embrace.
We have put many, MANY loads of leaves and grass clippings in there, hoping for better yields and easier soil to work next year. We keep hoping...
L's theater production, "The Elves and the Shoemaker" went well, with 3 shows.
The following weekend was the Cinderella Ball (CB.) L went with a group of friends, and even got to ride in a limo!
...and to volunteer at the fundraiser. She sang the National Anthem before the race, and helped out in general where needed.
She is working from home today and tomorrow until her Thanksgiving Break officially begins on Wednesday. L has a half day of school on Wednesday, and then she is off for several days as well.
My Grandma, affectionately known as "Tiny Grandmom" by my kids, turned 106 yesterday. Hospice called all her children 2 weeks ago to say that they didn't think that she had long. She rallied (again) and is still hanging in there!
Yesterday we all managed to get away to the city to our South to watch "Dune." It's the first time we've been to a theater in 2 years! It was a nice get away!
In between all of these beautiful things, have been some really hard and scary things happening too. I'm not ready to share those on this platform, but let me just say this - hug your kids. Let them know that you love them without bounds. Be thankful that your family can gather together this Thanksgiving!
