Been just a little busy

 Wow what a week for Thanksgiving.  Jim took the week off (very unusual)  and we make our journey to Florida.  We had a great time with family.  We had maybe half of what we usually have but we had fun.  Made a trip to Orlando to see Pop before he left ( he spent Thanksgiving with David) ,  met Rachel's new boyfriend...not commenting but wasn't totally disappointed.  We had the community center for 2 days, so we had a lot of time to visit with the family, play games and relax. Jim and I left early Saturday morning for our trip back to SC and made it back in time to unpack car, grab some lunch and Jim to watch the Iron Bowl (Bama vs Auburn).   When we were packing up in Florida, Jake offered to put some stuff in his car so we wouldn't be so crowded in our little car and he would be by Tues to bring it to me.  I got a call Monday telling me that he had "the crud".  I checked on him daily (he had to call out of work) to make sure he was ok ...He's like his mama when he gets sick...an old cur dog that will growl and snap at you.  We just want to be left alone...lol. Two weeks later,  he finally got over his sickness and just as I was getting house clean from taking down fall decorations and putting up Christmas....here he comes with a car full of pots, pans and fall decorations that we took with us 😒   

Jim left the Monday after Thanksgiving and was gone most of the week...made it home for the weekend and the SEC Championship (Bama won).  Between Jim twitching trying to help them play from his recliner and telling me to "watch this replay",  and my brother keeping the texting going thru the game, I just decided to sit down.  Although I had already done the laundry and ironed Jim's shirts for him to leave Sunday for another week away.  I'm hoping he is through traveling for the rest of the year. However, I will be going with him on his first trip in January to Tenn to celebrate our 35th anniversary in Pigeon Forge (our new favorite place).  

I have been busy while he has been gone. The house is somewhat uncluttered, we still haven't finished unpacking or completely emptied our other house yet, but I have decorated for Christmas and have things ready for Jenny, Jerry and Logan to come visit us next week.  I can't wait!!!

That's all for now, but am posting pics of our Christmas overload house....lol  I have more but will have to post them later...forgot to upload to computer 😕
