will be running the trot with all of the other turkeys this coming thursday, thanksgiving day (5 miler). money goes to benefit the local high school.
will be picking up my bro and my nephew this coming tuesday. hopefully, it'll go alot more smoothe than the previous airport pickup. will steer clear of any sort of airtrain thingy...
life goes on. i hate the holidays. i'm worried about my orangehead and Mom. and that's the way it is.
orangehead is getting slower, her haircoat is a lot duller, but her breathing is okay. the meds are helping her heart, but most likely, killing her kidneys. there is always a trade off. Mom is (i hope) getting over some sort of infection. her legs were swollen and red. she's happy though. the family will all be together for thanksgiving, all 8 of us with spouses and children. it'll be mayhem in the kitchen. i will have to steer clear of politics...i'm surrounded by freakin' republicans...go figure...
