Finishing out November 2019

We continue to watch a lot of football on the weekends. Our new gutters were installed on November 12. I think Steve is pleased with how they turned out! We usually eat out on Tuesday night with Linda and Hazel. We have tried to walk  when the weather is nice! Sometimes we walk in our neighborhood,  CCC Lake or downtown around the square.

Cecelia, Janet and I had talked about a Wheatheart get-together last fall, and finally we made it happen this fall! Jeanne Votaw offered the use of her Red Barn and we all gathered there with covered dishes for a pot luck on th 14th of November. We had a great time visiting and catching up. This was probably my all time favorite job because of the wonderful people who worked for Wheatheart. There were 10 who attended and it was fun! I didn't get pictures of Beulah, Cecelia or me.

Steve got fitted for new orthotics on Nov. 18. On Wednesday, Nov 20 we got around and drove to Carthage, MO and picked up a new (used) step for the RV. We left about 8:30 or 9:00 and got there a little after noon. Steve also asked about an awning for the driver side ( a window awning, shorter than the one on the driver's side). They said they would check on it. So we hung out for awhile and pretty soon they said - yes, they have one! We headed home with our two purchases. But the wind was blowing really hard so we stopped at Walmart for a better rope and a red flag.  The awning was long (long enough to cover the living and dining room window) so we needed a flag on it. I drove on the way home and we had to stop another time to tied the flag on and secure the topper. The weather was not pleasant today and it started raining on us when we got to Tulsa. I turned the driving back over to Steve at the McDonald's near Pawnee. We were glad to get home!

We did some extra cleaning before Thanksgiving, shampooed the carpet and Steve did the floors. I also hemmed a piece of denim to put on the couch, so it doesn't get stains on it. A girl came by and we changed our Direct TV and got new boxes. This is like signing up as a new customer and it was a pain.
 We saw these two deer about 2 block from our house on Nov 22, 2019

On Monday Nov 25 Steve and I went to Enid to see Pam & JC. We went to lunch at Chili's without JC because he was busy. When we got finished, Steve & JC went to pick up some of their Christmas decorations. Then we went to Lowe's (my least favorite place) and Hobby Lobby and back home.
Kristi and the kids arrived on Tuesday (26th) and they joined us at La Mac for supper with Linda and Hazel.
These turkey were near the same place as the deer on the 26th of November!
On Wednesday Steve, Kristi and I went shopping at Stillwater. She was a great help on what to get the kids for Christmas. The kids stayed home and put up the Christmas tree. We also played Yahtzee!
Thursday we had Thanksgiving and watched Dallas get beat. On Friday, the adults wrapped presents while the kids decorated the Christmas tree. Later we played Monopoly and Kristi beat us all! Saturday, we finished putting up our inside Christmas decorations and also the outside lights! So glad we had help to complete the decorating! Then we watched OSU get beat by OU in bedlam and that finished out November!


The perfect Christmas gift!
