I'm so thankful for my family and all my friends. You have been so wonderful and supportive and I'm grateful for each person. Thank you for all you've done and for being a friend. I'm thankful for our country and for our soldiers who are so far from home on this special family day. I'm thankful for the special place where we live, and our community.
And thanks very much for all the prayers, so many prayers from all over, the many cards and messages.
We are awake in our room pretty early today, so Beverly is showering and getting ready to go. I'm just going to dress and go the way I am. We won't leave until 8 or so probably. I'll sure be sorry to see the others go home, but so glad we were able to spend a few days together. So thought I'd sit and get the blog for today started. I went to the lobby and got Beverly some hot chocolate and me some tea. It was pretty quiet down there, the front desk people having some cereal and watching TV. It should be a nice enough day to drive home, just cold. I'm glad Joe will be going to the Mayo's for Thanksgiving dinner. But now I'm also thinking that we will be back in time to go too. Not sure that Debbie and I will just stay home though and not surprise Phyllis with guests she wasn't expecting.
We ate breakfast at the hotel and then said goodbye to Beverly, Clayton and Tayler. They got back to Vegas just at the same time as we got to the ranch. We stopped at the Walmart in Evanston again to get fresh vegetables, milk and such. It was still early there, but by the time we got to Kemmerer we began to look for a place to have a little lunch. The whole way everything was closed, ....or as is usual all along...non-existent. We checked out each town with no luck and finally ended up at the last mini-mart before home where they had a subway and got a sandwich.
By then I was pretty hungry having eaten about a dozen frosted mini wheats hours earlier. Debbie pulled into a small picnic area on the New Fork River to eat, then on to home. Joe was just leaving for Phyllis and Bill's, so Debbie got the car unloaded and I got most of the groceries put away. That involved cleaning out the fridge. I found some scary stuff in there. Then we both took a rest for an hour or so. Joe came home and Phyllis had sent us each a plate of her turkey dinner, which was so nice of her. The dogs were sure glad to see us. I gave Joe the details of the doctor appointments as clearly as possible. We need to decide what to do next. I'm sure he's worried about me getting too sick for him to take care of me here. Tomorrow I'll try to call Deanne for a visit. We did get the medical reports and I'll make copies for our different doctors. Then will decide a plan. Debbie might go home tomorrow or Saturday.
