Packin' It On

Tomorrow is Thanksgiving Day, and the beginning of the "Season Of Packing It On".

It will be different this year, in that Robin cannot eat anything with gluten anymore (no wheat products, and wheat is in almost EVERYTHING to some degree). And I am on low-sugar and low carbs. So, it will be a real challenge to put on a feast - but we'll work it out.

Working on the wood supply for 2011. Surprisingly, we have only used a cord so far this year, and we have not used any other fuel at all. Been heating since Labor day - and heating almost 24/7 for the last few weeks.

Outdoor Christmas lights go on tomorrow at dusk - not as many as usual, and I changed many lights over to the new low-wattage LCD ones.

Feeling a bit miffed - Obama pardoned the turkey today, and is sending him to Disneyland. Me, he taxes to death and sends me to the poor house. I guess I'm not the right kind of turkey.

I'm getting a real kick out of all those emails by the so-called climate scientists - you know, the ones a whistle-blower posted, showing how they rigged the research results that "prove" global warming. Strange how the "mainstream media" hasn't said a word about that. Well, not so strange, I guess...

Well, gotta go. Much to do to prep for tomorrow - pies to bake, etc. Our family wishes your family a very Happy Thanksgiving.

Bill, Robin & Criss
