It is Tuesday morning, the 22nd day of November in the year 2022. The second business day of my vacation, and now two days away from Thanksgiving and required travel.
I accept that we travel for Thanksgiving. My mom lives in Clay Center, along with my sister and her family, and now both of my brothers. It’s just the way it is. There have been years when travel wasn’t really practical, with either illness or other responsibilities getting in the way. At times, we have hosted Thanksgiving dinner for friends, and we might be adding another guest or two when we sit down to do our thing.
Two World Cup games are done for the day, including an absolute stunner by Saudi Arabia over Argentina. The number 53 seeded team versus the number 3 seeded team, and it was not Lionel Messi’s day. The Danes and the Tunisians played to a draw, and next up Poland takes on Mexico.
It might be a good day for me to get out of the house for a bit… after all, if Mexico is playing in the World Cup on Taco Tuesday, that might be a sign.
I’m not always really good about keeping my writing up to date when I’m taking a little downtime. Weekends are great for me for writing, and this vacation stretch affects my focus as well.
Time to get back to regularly scheduled daydreaming.
I hope the world is treating you better than you deserve.
Peace y’all.
