Made it through all the food and family time yesterday and rested in the afternoon. But was uncomfortable, restless, loss of appetite, stomach pains, etc... and had trouble sleeping. When we left the hospital on Friday they advised I use extra strength Tylenol instead of the advil we had always used. When Suzie checked the adverse side effects of Tylenol and found to I had almost every one of them. So the more I took the worse I felt! So no more Tylenol for me. Starting to feel much better this morning already.

downtown water tower
Still cold here this morning at 38F (3C). our Blue Flame heater keeps us quite comfortable inside so that is no problem. Then because I could I got out for another drive around town taking a few pictures along the way. So nice to be able to get out and about, even got my winter coat out as well. Guess I better get used to wearing it. |

ReplyDeleteThank for the prayer Betty and glad you enjoyed the pictures.
DeleteWonderful family pictures and I think it is a testament to how you raised your children that they pulled together and made such a wonderful Thanksgiving dinner and family time for you and Suzie! It must have been very different for you to sit back and let someone else do the cooking.
ReplyDeleteThanks guys these kids sure did an awesome Job with the food and everything, nothing for me to do.
DeleteWhat a beautiful family you have George!
ReplyDeleteGlad everything came together nicely and the food looks phenomenal. Goes to show that blogs can teach you something new...I was under the impression that Thanksgiving was only celebrated in the USA, now I know Canada has the same tradition.
Thanks Ms. Belinda so nice to have them all together.
DeleteAnd they pulled it all together at the last minute.
We celebrate our Thanks Giving now and when we travel south we get to Celebrate again in November.
