Giving thanks

Quiet day today... I was planning on going to my sister's for dinner (her and niblings and dad and stepmom and one of her adult kids) but nephew woke up with a nasty sounding cough so I decided staying home was safer. My dad (et al) brought me a plate on their way over, turkey and cranberry relish and yams and green beans, so I had good dinner on my own. Also my aide drove me and Phoebe to the Arboretum for a walk; I love that place anyway, and the weather was lovely, and the trees were beautiful and the ducks were ... uh ... loud 😂 ... and it was just nice.

I'm thankful for my animals, and my caregivers even though I need more (and have no [legal] way of ever having enough, because even if I get people they move on again), and all y'all, and my discord peeps, and the internet in general even though it's largely a raging dumpster fire.

I may have splurged and bought a digital copy of Muppet Treasure Island, which was on sale for $5. Didn't get around to watching it today but possibly tomorrow.
