TUESDAY ALREADY

Where does the time go, I can't believe it was Friday when I last blogged.  Well here we are well into Thanksgiving week for me.  Kids will be home this weekend.  I am so excited.  It is a busy week and I have been doing, doing, doing.
Yesterday on Monday I did a bunch of laundry in the morning and in the afternoon we went to Floor to Ceiling Tile and picked out new Formica counter top, back splash, flooring and carpet.  That will set us back, no profit this year on our investments or I should say this is the profit.  So glad Jim was with me,  changed our mid on the flooring, the linoleum will look like maple flooring.  I love it and the counter top changed and will match the flooring and cupboards much better.  Kenny our carpenter comes today and measures and gives up a date when he can start.  Hope it will be sometime in December.  We will see.
Went grocery shopping,  Jim bought a bunch od deer suet for the birds.  You should have seen

The Pileated Woodpecker (Dryocopus pileatus) is a very large North Americanwoodpecker, roughly crow-sized, inhabiting deciduous forests in eastern North America, the Great Lakes, the boreal forests of Canada, and parts of the Pacific coast. It is also the largest woodpecker in the United States, except the possibly extinct Ivory-billed Woodpecker.

I saved the picture of it bur I am not clever enough to put it on my blog.  

Well this is interesting.  Trying to pick out print I can read well.  This is overkill but I hate to mess with it too much, I might erase the whole thing.
Went to Lion's meeting last night.  Had Turkey dinner, stuffing was so bad,  turkey was good, the potatoes at home are so much better bur we had 35 people there and it has to be hard to cook for that many.
I can't believe that the year is almost over, how fast time goes. I have such a good time I can hardly stand it.  And the kids home this weekend.  YIPEE SKIPEE, I am going to get to the kitchen and make some pecan Sandies, so yummy.   Saving iceberg
cream containers for krumkake.  Learned a new trick when I mix them up.  We see if it makes them nice and lighter.  



I need to get busy.  I am de cluttering.  Makes me feel good.
Can you stand it I actually figured out how to get a picture of the bird and that is exactly how they look.  I was at my desk in my office/sewing room, it's the yellow room, I love that room, it's such a happy room.
The guest room is either the Rabbit Room or the Blue Room.  I like Rabbit Room, I am crazy about Rabbits, little Otto I know is part Rabbit, Ozzie callers him Hip-pity Hop because he hops rather than runs.  Anyway I looked up out the window and there was my first woodpecker of the winter.
