Thanksgiving

We had a different kind of holiday. The first new thing was that no one came over and we didn't travel. It was just the four of us. Eddy and I were excited about that.

We woke up that morning, and Eddy was sick. He had been trying to use my technique of "willing yourself to not get sick", but he couldn't do it anymore. I left the house at 7:30am to volunteer at a local 5K race. I wanted to run it, but was too cheap to pay $32 to run 3 miles! At least this way I got a free shirt!

When I got home, I wanted to get a run in, so I asked Isaac to come with me. He biked while I ran. Only he wanted to put 3 trains in his backpack and bring that with. So that extra load, on top of going against the wind on the only uphill part of the run, made it a fairly miserable experience. But I'm grateful that he kept me company!


We didn't take any pictures of us with our turkey dinner. In fact, we didn't dress up. And we served the food from the pans it was cooked in. And we didn't get out the fancy dishes or silverware.

And it was great.
