Construction Update

We have some real progress on our new house!!!  We drove past it today, Dec 1, and the forms are in place.  This is the first real physical step in the building of our new house.  Needless to say we are very excited.  Here is a picture of Elizabeth standing on what will become the front porch.

 

We continue to get settled into our temporary quarters.  We have developed a little routine.  The mail gets delivered very late, sometimes after 7 in the evening.  So after supper I take Candi on her "woe" walk to get the mail.  We call it a woe walk as she tells me all her woes for the day.

Elizabeth is still recovering from the flu.  She was very sick for about a week and is still quite weak.  But she is getting better.

We had a very nice Thanksgiving.

This was an unusual year it that it was just our little family.  We typically invite a number of friends who would otherwise be alone but with Elizabeth being sick and us in the apartment not this year.  Sorry Steve and Sid.  Hope you guys found somewhere else to go.  We had the typical meal just a smaller version.  For example rather than a roast turkey we had a roasted turkey breast. It was delicious.

After eating we got some Christmas decorations out including the tree.

Does that tree look like it is leaning?

Right now it is about 6 on Sunday evening.  Almost time to eat and close out a wonderful week end.
