Husband and Wife Christmas Shopping
A couple were in a busy shopping center just before Christmas. The wife suddenly noticed that her husband was missing and as they had a lot to do, so she called him on the mobile.
The wife said ” Where are you, you know we have lots to do.”
He said “You remember the jewelers we went into about 10 years ago, and you fell in love with that diamond necklace? I could not afford it at the time and I said that one day I would get it for you?”
Little tears started to flow down her cheek and she got all
choked up…
“Yes, I do remember that shop.” she replied.
“Well I am in the gun shop next door to that.”

So all of the above, gathered at Keith & Kathleen’s home for our 2017 Thanksgiving dinner. Paul, front and center, took the picture with his selfie stick and it turned out pretty good. Nice job Paul

THE TRIP HOME

Well, we drove to Illinois in one shot and we said we wouldn’t come home that way, but it appears that I lied to Andy and myself. We did it in the Google Maps allotted time of just under 18 hours. It’s pretty cool that they can get the time so close.

For all that care; Mom is doing well. She’s back in Illinois and working on getting back into her Illinois routine. Beth drover her in and Carl and Nancy conspired to get Beth back home. A casino was involved. Andy was questioned about the baby and all were inform that it miscarried. Carl was Carl. Nothing else to say, other than coatracks. Don’t ask. Keith is Keith. Paul is in the process of getting a divorce and it was a well avoided topic of conversation. All the nephews and nieces are doing well and were present, except for AJ who was working.

Nina, Tori and Debra were together for Thanksgiving. They did a small meal and we are celebrating as a family today and including Erin’s birthday as part of the Thanksgiving celebration. Fitting really.

Anyway, i’m back to posting and take solace in the fact that I never once thought about this blog while I was gone. It was nice actually.

Peace!
