Very good day

I like when I can write that. Very good day. Very good day.

Went out with Sandy to some church holiday fairs and it pretty much kicked off the season. I started knitting for my TOKMAS swap -- actually a little crochet -- tiny snowflakes. And I went to Shoprite and bought a 10 pound pork loin that I'm going to cut off a roast for here at Rita's and the rest will be cut up and frozen for my new place.

I bought a card and some temporary tattoos for Allena for her birthday. Wish I had money to send her a real gift.

Then Anthony came and got me and we went to Karla's for supper. Diana, James and Lea were there also. And of course my Sammy Dove. Karla made a fest -- barbecued beef ribs, homemade cole slaw with homemade dressing, a mashed potato casserole, appetizers and then we had cheesecake and panetone to celebrate Anthony making hard hat. He's going back tomorrow and will be back here on Thanksgiving.

And I ended the night with Rita dying my hair.

So it was a very good day.

Oh yes, stopped to see John about the new noise my car is making. He fixed it. Sort of. It lasted until I got a mile or so away and I didn't have time to turn back. It's nothing serious so I'll bring it back after work on Monday. There was no charge and hopefully no charge Monday.

So I'm grateful that my Pino is still with me and my car is still working. I'm grateful that I got to see my son and family. I'm grateful I have Ruffio. And I'm grateful that I want to have a relationship with my sister and am trying to keep things as calm as possible.
