(Old) Can You Hear that Cranberry "Schloop"? - A Thanksgiving MMP

Team Can! Lurves me some cranberry jelly!

Up early but gotta fast till I get bled - I plan to be waiting when they open. Tobias will be delivered after and dare I hope for an easy day?

Found I didn’t hit post yesterday for this:

Especially when you’re as close to 70 as I am… yoiks!

I got MIL’s smart plugs working for her - she’d be lost without Alexa! So now she has 3 lamps that she can turn on and off verbally.

We talked to her today about moving in with us - not pushing it, but asking her to consider it. It wouldn’t be a big deal for us - in fact, it would be easier having her here rather than worrying when she didn’t answer her phone. And we can take her to the senior center as she wishes, which would be good for her. It’ll require moving the stuff stored in the guest bedroom to (probably) the basement, but that’s doable.

One thing FCD and I agreed upon - we’d hire a crew to move her stuff from the apartment to our house. Getting her moved in there was hard on us. She can afford to pay for labor, since her board here won’t be even close to her rent, etc. And she loves Higgs - I think she really misses having a dog. So fingers crossed that she’ll decide to move here.

I’ve got my T-day dinner plans all set. There are things to do over 3 days, but not a whole lot on any one day. Using Outlook calendar made it easy to spread the chores.

So, Happy Moanday!
