Stop in for a cup of coffee
Hahaha...
Watch out for the MIB
Missed the parade this year. Last year was a mess with all the pre-recorded stuff. Glad it was a fun one this year
Yeah I was all about "back to normalcy" this year. I want to forget Thanksgiving of 2020. I had to tell my own parents, brother and sister, "Meet me in the driveway and I'll hand you a plate". See the thing is, some of wifes family comes here one year and goes somewhere else the next year ( her family, his family ) and last year they were bound and determined to come here. I cannot/would never say her family isn't welcome. She does all the cooking and prep ( except for the fried okra). If they drive over 300 miles and stop for gas, etc... I don't know what they brought with them that I can't see. I wasn't about to hold a spreader event. So... Thanksgiving is on us, Christmas lasagna gathering is now on my brother since mom is too old, is on my brother. He had already spent time and money on making up several pots of lasagna sauce, noodles, and more . Suddenly him and his place is quarantined because his son brought covid home from work. he calls all to say Christmas here is cancelled. We're talking on the phone and he says, "We might be still eating lasagna on valentines". Ugggh. I went to a local butcher shop and bought a huge prime rib. Had them cut it into thirds. I went to youtube videos, the grocery store for seasoning and sides, then told the wife, "Lets go for a ride". When we got to my parents, brothers place, sisters place, I called them and said, "Hey, your Christmas is on you front porch". Yeah, Covid made everything different, but only for the one year. Today i know I learned from it. Aint nothing more important that family, mine or hers.
