Day Three Hundred Eleven 2011
Busy November Monday. My sister Ann and I took our 90 year old mom to the dentist (she’s in for some oral surgery in her near future), then off to Ocha (our favorite Thai deli) with hubby Neil, sister Ann, and daughters Kelly and Holly for a yummy rice and spicy chicken lunch, then off to Starbucks with Kelly around two for a salted caramel mocha (decaf!) and then home to continue laundry day and greet the grand peeps and niece peep as they came in after school. Kelly headed back home around four as did daughter Holly and grand peeps. House too quiet, all of a sudden. Finally made my wall calendar for November and continued with the laundry until hubby Neil came in from work around five thirty (dark already—he hates that), and off to Subway for a low cal supper and back home again to put laundry away and sit down here with this computer on my lap and realize this is the only picture I managed to take today (other than one of Kelly’s Starbuck’s tumbler full of iced mocha). This picture kind of captures the beautiful, perfect temperature, blue sky, puffy cloud, November day that it was. I thought I’d fill in the blanks of all the stuff the picture didn’t capture, in case you were wondering.

Day Three Hundred Ten 2011
BABY SHOWER
Some very sweet ladies at our church congregation hosted a baby shower for daughter Kelly this afternoon in our fellowship center. Baby Knox received so many cute and useful things—from a baby camo outfit to embroidered/monogrammed gowns, hats and blankets. And diapers, of course. All very much needed and appreciated by the mom-to-be. Thanks to Angela, Laura, Whitney and Ashley who orchestrated everything so beautifully and to all those ladies who dropped by to leave a gift and enjoy one of those yummy cupcakes and a cup of fruit tea.

Day Three Hundred Nine 2011
“And the days dwindle down To a precious few, September, November - And these few precious days I'd spend with you, These golden days I'd spend with you”

Day Three Hundred Seven 2011
This is Snuggles, also known as Persian, and also known as Butter. He is the resident cat at the assisted living home where my mom lives. My hubby Neil, sister Ann and I were having lunch with our mom today, and Snuggles was all comfy stretched out on one of the chairs by the table. I’m surprised he didn’t smell the Krystal burgers and come begging for a bite. He looks like he’s singing in this picture. When he first came to the residence, they wouldn’t even let him inside the door. Now he apparently owns the place. Isn’t that just like a cat?
