Saturday Blues

Thanksgiving started with no power from 5:45am to 9:15am.  As soon as power came on, I started the bread going for dinner.  Called downstairs to Bob's to turn oven on for the turkey.  Prepared turkey took it to Bob's oven.  Will be done by 1:30pm.  We are only running 30 minutes behind our scheduled dinner.  Deserts done Wednesday.  Sue, John & Mr. P. Nutt, Bob, Miss Kitty in next apartment from Bob, Paul & I.  Lilia stayed up in our apartment and ruled the roost!
We had a marvelous dinner, all ate as much as we wanted.  Turkey totally gone except very few pieces that I brought upstairs for Lilia and Prince.  Sue helped with clean up.  Bob and Paul returned table and chairs back to the closet, and I got John to take out the trash.  We all had things to do to get this done for all of us to enjoy.
Friday I was hurting, Lilia went to Day Care, and Paul drove me to Cornish to deliver Stampin Up order to Barbara.  Went over the Big Shot and totally overwhelmed the poor girl.  Found out that one of my customers was in the hospital so will hopefully get a card sent out to her by Monday.

Now for Saturday Blues:
Even thou Thanksgiving was busy and I did receive calls from my children, I have waited since for calls from the rest of the family.  For many years I have stepped to the phone and called my sisters and brothers (when I had their phone numbers).  This year I stepped back just to see if they would take the initiative to call their oldest sister.  No calls from any of them.  To busy for family.  I knew it would happen that they would not call.  Why should they?  Some day I will not be here.  Will they remember the cards sent?  Probably not.  Will I continue to mail them cards?  Yah, but not every month.  I would love a note from each of my sisters once in a while.  Everyone needs to feel needed and loved...  My friends call me to see if I am ok.  Beth makes sure I am ok by calling every Thursday and I so appreciate it.  Especially when I am feeling down.  She even says to call on other days if I just want to jibber jabber!  Beth is a very special friend, believe me when I say there are many times I do whine about my sisters not needed me, but they do talk to each other.

Now that I have that out of my system I am shutting this down and going to bed early after I take some Excedrin  for this Migraine....  Maybe tomorrow will be warmer all around....

Take care my friends!
