Thanksgiving 2020

In all honesty, our Thanksgiving is not really different then what it would have been without COVID.  Because of my father-in-law's precarious health, we were going to spend it in their home anyway.  They aren't seeing anyone other than the nursing aides who come each day, and we aren't leaving the house.  Other than those restrictions, it would've been just the six of us anyway.

My mother-in-law has spent some of the day putting out a very few Christmas decorations.  Andrew and I have each done a little bit of Christmas shopping (online), and we've been texting with a few friends.  The food (catered in) was good, and it's been a lovely day in spite of the craziness in the world.

Tomorrow we venture back home and start our own decorating.  This is the first Thanksgiving weekend in many years that none of our kids have had jobs, and I can't say I'm sad about it.  I'll miss the annual OSU/Michigan game, but there will still be plenty of college football to happen.  I am looking forward to so very much family time!
