We have nearly finished our leftover turkey. Turkey sandwiches, Pecan/Cranberry/Turkey Salad with Orange Poppyseed Dressing, Turkey Pot Pie, Turkey Noodle Soup. Not bad for a 20 lb bird I bought that originally fed 3 adults and 2 children.
Today I drove by my childhood home – the one when life was most chaotic. It’s tiny. I remember it being small, but not that small. It’s listed as 735 square feet. I felt anxiety…and dissonance. I drove a few blocks further to my other childhood home – the one my dad died in. I only felt sadness.
On Friday I got my A Tree Grows in Brooklyn inspired tattoo on my ribs/back. I would post a picture, but it really needs to heal a bit so I can show off the detail. It looks more amazing every day.
November is National Adoption Awareness Month. You can read Charlotte’s Adoption Story here.
We put up the tree and brought out Mr. Elf over the last couple of days. The tree has a proper top hat.
My new snowman ornament this year:
Charlotte picked Mater and Cooper picked a pencil. I bought them a soccer ball.
Chris got Star Wars themed ornaments.
And Mr. Elf seems to like my new animal décor I bought when we went camping in Ouray.
