Welcome to Brad's online memory archives.
Bruno is really energetic in the mornings. Maybe partly because I engage with him. While I’m getting ready, he sits on the bed an waits for me to play. One of the games we play is “catch”. I throw socks or a shirt at him, and he jumps up and catches it. He loves it!
The former owner of my house had satellite tv. The dish is still on the roof. The wires from the dish all ran under the house to screens in almost every room. I’ve been meaning to pull the wires out for a while now. Yesterday I did it.
I cut them:
And then pulled them out from under the house:
After I did it, I realized that not all the cables were attached to the dish. I think I cut my old Spectrum cable. D’oh!
I’m not currently using Spectrum for my internet, but if I ever switch back to it, can they just splice something onto the cut cable? Ack!
I’m still sick, but feeling better. Yesterday I slept in, and then felt good enough to go out. Of course it’s not the same as it used to be, but I like Black Friday. I wanted to experience a little of it.
One of the places that really represents Black Friday to me is Kohl’s. They have clothes, they have housewares, they have aisle displays with Black Friday deals. It was perfect!
I had fun looking around, but didn’t see any frivolous purchases to make. I was a little disappointed. I did see something I needed though. Behold, my Black Friday purchase:
Right next to Kohl’s was my favorite garden center, so I stopped there too.
I also went to the mall. It was packed. So fun! There’s a Marshall’s there, and that’s where I saw the most interesting thing of the day.
Ha! A Valentine’s Day decoration display in November? I don’t think I’ve ever seen that so early! Amazing!
Despite me being sick, it was a good Thanksgiving.
I went into the garden in the morning. My ginkgo is turning yellow! It’s autumn in my back yard!
I watched the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. It was a nice, restful activity. And, it really made the day feel like like Thanksgiving.
My turkey was a 25-pounder this year! I have so much leftovers! Nice!
I think I had trouble finding my turkey gloves last year. This year, I found two pairs. I decided to use the pair with the decorative cuff.
The meal was delicious! Yum! I love Thanksgiving food!
Happy Thanksgiving!
I slept in and rested and tried to get better yesterday. I canceled a endodontist appointment and just laid in bed until about 10am.
When I finally got out of bed, I spent most of the rest of the day on the couch. Bruno kept me company:
My coughing fits got less frequent as the day went on. I’m glad, because my stomach muscles are super sore from all the coughing I’m doing. Ouch.

What great action shots!! That is incredible! I bet that’s the best part of his day. 😀
Those are great shots! Nice job, Bruno – I see Olympic tryouts in your future; do they even have a category for things like that? “Aerial high jumping” maybe?
[All our cat does for exercise is walk across the hall from”her” room to ours to whine about how her litter box hasn’t been cleaned for half an hour or her food is below the RDA of kibble or how I’ve not shared tuna yet that day or…you get the idea. Yet, she manages to maintain her girlish figure somehow. I write it off to all the times she regurgitates after eating…]
What an athlete!!
