Monday (15th) After having our breakfast and putzing around a bit, we got with it. I mowed the grass in the back yard. Can you believe we still have to mow grass in November? We also picked up our mail and completed the bank statements. Later we walked to the park with the dogs. Tonight I fixed Cajun Potato Skins along with salad and berries.
Tuesday (16th) today we watched some TV after our morning routine. Later Steve was back to work on the RV TV. Some part he needed broke - so I ordered another one from Amazon. It was a slow day.

Wednesday (17th). I didn't track much of the goings on here this day - so I guess it was a blah day or more of the same.

Thursday (18th) After our morning routine was completed we drove to Stillwater. We needed to go to Lowes for bolts for the front leveling jack on the RV. Next we went to Walmart for Thanksgiving food items. When we got back home Steve got out our collapsible wagon and we used it to unload the groceries. That worked great! I'm glad my husband thinks of these things. We got the wagon at Cabela's last summer because I thought we might have to take Zoe for walks in it. But she improved and didn't need to ride in the wagon. The wagon is a great addition to our RVing/Camping stuff.
Friday ( 19th) We were up and around earlier today. We left home about 9:00 AM to go to OKC. Our first stop was REI for shoes. Next we went to Penney's and bought a couple of Christmas presents. We didn't find anything to buy at Target today, so we moved on to Camping World and got lucky. The last two stops were at Bed, Bath & Beyond and Kohl's where we were looking for some new kitchen curtains. But we didn't find any that we liked. We went home and had lunch. We were a little tired so most of the remainder of the day was spent resting and relaxing.
Saturday (20th) Steve was back working on the RV TV. I worked on the blog. Then we had lunch and a walk. We had to go to Braum's to get baked Tostitos and while we were out we picked up the mail. Supper was Taco Salad and Berries!
Sunday (21st) Today we watched Football with a few other activities thrown in. Dallas lost to Kansas City and the Vikings beat Green Bay. Also the Steelers got beat. So our teams didn't fare too well. I fixed Penne Pasta Bake for supper and it was very tasty!
It's Monday again! I don't mind Mondays since I'm retired. They seem to be like most other days! We did laundry and Steve finished working on the RV TV. He also found my Benchmark atlases that I had been hunting. I looked for them last summer and could not find them. But they were in the proper spot - I just hadn't looked hard enough. I spent my morning shredding lots of papers that had accumulated. A benign job - but it needed finished. We did take the dogs on a walk and they were so happy.
Tuesday we started preparations for company. We made up the bed in the RV. Later we went to Walmart for the final groceries. We also had to stop at Homeland here in town because Walmart was missing some items. Later we had supper at La Macarena! Kristi & Logan arrived and they had eaten fast food on their way here.
On Wednesday, Austyn called me bright and early (7;15), which is not really my jam anymore. I am not a morning person. Although 7:15 isn't that early. Since Kristi and Logan were here, we had lunch at Braum's. We also picked up a few more items to eat there. We returned home and made desserts for Thanksgiving while visiting and watching TV. By 6:30, John, Austyn and Sky arrived. We all went back to La Macarena and had supper. It was decided that we would all sit outside and enjoy a campfire and make s'mores. That was relaxing. Everybody seemed a little tired so we went to bed about the usual time.
Thursday - Thanksgiving! (25th) I was up at 7:30 and had the turkey in the oven by 8 AM. We watched the Macy's Parade on TV until 10:30. Sometime in the morning we played a game of Skipbow. Then we finished making our Turkey dinner: Mashed potatoes, The Bird, Green Bean Casserole, Ham, Crescent Rolls, Stuffing and the desserts from yesterday. Steve & Kristi put the leaf in the table and fixed that. We all stuffed ourselves and then hung out watching Dallas get beat by the Raiders. Everyone had to go home and return to work, so we finished the evening by ourselves.
Our Thanksgiving food! We are not fancy!
Friday After the morning routine, we looked up stuff online. We are trying to figure out what presents to buy for Christmas. I also tutored Steve on how to pay the bills online. We had a nice walk and finished our day watching Bosch on Amazon Prime Video.
Saturday & Sunday- We pretty much just relaxed and putzed around. I ordered some presents online and we walked both days. I am having rouble with a Pampered Chef order - so I have been messaging the Pampered Chef consultant to straighten that out. Green Bay Packers won their football game and Dallas rested (since they got beat on Thanksgiving). I made us Chicken soup Saturday and that was good!
On Saturday my team, Oklahoma State University (Stillwater) beat Oklahoma University (Norman) in Bedlam! It was great! My alma mater doesn't win this match very often!

Monday (29th). Last night was not a great night for sleep for me. But we got up and around because Steve was supposed to have an Orthotics Appointment. They called and cancelled it and rescheduled it until Friday. So we just did laundry and hung out. Later we went to Stillwater Christmas Shopping. We started at Academy Outdoors - no purchases, then Belk - where we did pretty good. Later we also went to Bath n Body, Big Lots and Walmart. We did have lunch at ChicFilA. Our supper was leftover soup.
Tuesday After we got going our main project today was to start on the outside lights and decorations. We took a break for lunch and then did some more work on the light in the afternoon. That about finishes out November.
