Thanksgiving in Ohio (2011)

Well, Thanksgiving is over, we had David, Lisa, Shania and Garret along with the Akron kids on Thursday and then Sara and Stu along with Chuck and Dolores (our neighbors in back) came for leftovers Friday night.  We sent all the leftovers home with Stu and Sara and had "normal" food the rest of the weekend.

I have posted the pictures to Picasa and here is the link for you to click on and see them.  Baldwin Ohio Thanksgiving Pix You can click on each one individually or you can select the button that says "slide show" and see them full size for a few seconds each.

It's been a pretty "dry" month financially, but I have 3 closings today and tomorrow and got a nice listing "In Contract" over the weekend, so we should be OK through Jan or Feb ... and more will come in time.

Kathy is working at Rite-Aid 2 days/week and likes the job and the co-workers and her boss, but her foot is really bothering her (planter faciaitis sp?) and heel spurs.  Walking the dog (or walking at all) has become painful.

I found a used wooden storage "barn" and it's being delivered on Thursday, so we can move all the stored stuff from above the garage into this building so that I can get the room above the garage finished into a guest room so that when you guys come to visit you'll have appropriate accomodations!  It'll have it's own bathroom with shower, 2 bedrooms and an open kitchen/living area.  That way it can really serve as an apartment for someone on down the road, improving the resale value of the property.

I think that's it for now.  It has been raining for three days now, it's 50 degrees out.  Temp is heading down tonight and we will get our first flurries.  Colder later in the week, but at least the rain will stop soon - thankfully.

Take care, thanks for posting and we'll catch you all later!

The Bird Is Done


Here is the bird (noon Wed) and it is cooked. Now to let it cool a bit and then carve and place in the crock pot in the fridge and turkey sandwiches for dinner tonight!

Turkey's In The Oven



Turkey's in the oven. We roast it on Wednesday and then pull the meat off the carcass and fill the crock pot with the meat & a little juice. Plug in the crock pot tomorrow (David, Lisa, Bubby, Shania will be here) and that way we can concentrate on making the other food and not have to deal with the mess of the turkey in the kitchen.

I'll post another pix when it comes out of the oven.
