Sad to See the Holiday Weekend End

 We had such a wonderful five days that it was sad to have it come to an end.  We didn't leave the house, but we enjoyed our Thanksgiving break just the same with endless games of Ticket to Ride, Christmas decorating completed, movies watched, an IU football victory, several rounds of Swap Meet and Mario Kart, wonderful delicious homemade meals eaten, a Renior puzzle closer to being completed and a general feeling of relaxation and fun.  

Doug has told me several times that he gets frustrated with those who complain about the year 2020.  Staying at home more often and wearing a mask when going out has been a minor inconvience compared to true tragedies.  Remembering what it felt like to grow up without a beloved brother, I couldn't agree more.  In fact, except for the increased concern that COVID has added to our year, 2020 has been positive in so many ways.  Brett's new job, Cal's graduation from IU, Meg's return to an independent life and Cam's success in tennis were just a few of this year's highlights.  We definitely had a lot to be thankful for this holiday season.
