> [@Spiderman](#): > > \*\*Happy Day, Turkeys! \*\* > > **Ruble** ’s wind has made the east coast. Waiting to hear if balloons will fly in NYC & Philly. From what I saw at least NY got going. Those cross streets and winds gave the handlers a time though. Other than that doing some laundry, some eBay, some state paperwork for this summer and generally puttering. Planning some shopping for a couple toy drives but if I do go out tomorrow it will be later in the afternoon. ---

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone. I’m still recovering from this dang bronchitis. Every day I hit the wall about 2pm. Today I am staying home to rest. Dinner will be flank steak rolled in garlic butter, baked N.O.T., sautéed mushrooms, and green beans. I really want to see Ariel today but have to put my health first. Still not smoking. 26 days and I have NOT smoked 568 cigarettes. ---

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone. After frolicking on the beach, we’ll be enjoying a huge turkey-fest put on annually by our neighbor. Just hope it doesn’t stay too warm. ---

All seems to be well with my sleep pacemaker. I bump up the strength to Level 3 tonight. A thousand times yes on NEVER JAM POTATO PEELS DOWN THE DISPOSAL! Also don’t feed it too many carrot peels or eggshells without running the water long enough afterward to wash the grindings out to the city sewer under the street. A couple months ago, PWAISDN put 18 eggshells into my disposer and hit the switch. Eggshells disappear and all seems well in the world. Until it wasn’t and the washing machine drain backs up, making a mess in the garage. When I bought the place, I upgraded to the top-of-the-line disposer, having had bad experiences with the cheapies. Triple grinding, all stainless steel guts, so it’ll never rust out and flood the cabinet. It’ll safely devour bones, and it’s quiet. So, snake time. \ I start snaking and come back with white sand. The disposer dutifully pulverized the shells into bits smaller than coffee grounds, but they all settled into a low spot or a bend in the pipe under the house. There are times when “Sorry honey” just isn’t quite enough. ---

Unless of course she has come for a visit, in which case she could very well be outside. N.O.T. is Not Our Taters as in I am having Not Our Taters salad for lunch, because it wouldn’t do to eat Our Taters for lunch. Even if it wasn’t illegal, cannabalism is just so ICK! N.O.N. Not Our Nuts, well because it wouldn’t be right to eat Filbert either, or to use her to describe those who are tetched in the haid. Even if she does like playing with bees. ---
