checking things off the to-do list one thing at a time. After 11 months of doing almost nothing, we have a year's worth of things to do in a couple of weeks and cram a birthday party for our grandson's 21 birthday as well as his wife's, which is 6 days after his and Thanksgiving into the mix. One thing at a time.

I felt as if I had gained more than 10 pounds overnight. My body feels sooooo heavy today. After getting on the scale, I had lost over 2 pounds since Wednesday. I read that there was another large solar storm, and we will feel the effects of it over the weekend. One of the effects was feeling a lot of weight or pressure on us.

Got my Thanksgiving menu, cooking schedule, and grocery list planned out.

I saw where Walmart and Aldi are both determined to make Thanksgiving more economical for families this year. They are both putting the things that families often serve on sale for $40. Even though that is going to be a stretch for some families, I am grateful that they are trying to help. Corporations are so greedy these days.

The beautiful weather we have had since the two cold days at the beginning of the week (I even liked them). I has been just gorgeous. I love fall.
