Sorry you lost your friend.
Glad you had a lovely Thanksgiving.
Good luck w your appointments.
I had lovely visit w my sister today, helping her finish holiday decorating.

In touch w some cousins by texting. Have friends around my age. Two seem to be somewhat out of touch so I'm concerned. Have two younger friends by 15 to 18 yrs.

Being here close to 5 yrs I appreciate being able to deal with our country's situations with like minded people!

And get to have fun here in the Lounge. Learn things in, like, the Science, History, etc threads.

Happy, healthy, safe holidays- which ever you celebrate DU'rs!
