Happy Thanksgiving

Another thanksgiving gone by , didn`t do anything , didn`t speak to anyone , other than sending out some text messages .....went to Lori`s parents for about an hour then went home and laid on the couch watching football ignoring the phone that won`t stop ringing ....feeling down..Yeah the Jets got destroyed ...didn`t help the mood

Black Friday - had a nice day ...avoided all malls and stores ...took a nice scenic drive out to the northwest corner of ct stop[ing at a few parks on the way ...too cold to walk for very long ...we also hit Session Woods Wildlife Park , Burlington but simply checked out their museum of stuffed animals and skipped the hike - be back in the spring ... AND finally  as a surprise for my girl (she generally hops in the car for one of my excursions with no questions or expectations  or knowledge of our agenda ) took Lori to the Last Post - a kitty retirement home of sorts.  Its in Falls Village ,ct and this is a no kill shelter for cats who find themselves willed there or dropped off or whatnot.  Lori was in kitty heaven as we entered the Large Kitty Dorm.  There are large exposed wood beams with reclining kitties , numerous kitty beds , scratch posts kitt
toys and stuff.  And dozens and dozens of Cats !!! This cat hotel has kitty doors that lead to a fenced in area for kitties to run around , as well as a porch.  
As soon as lori kneeled down to pet an insistent kitty , we were surrounded .... easily 8 or more kitties were around us vying for attention.  Lori made her rounds and met almost every kitty.  We went outside on the porch and sure enough within minutes
the porch was packed with purry pussycats.  Say that three times fast !
Had to drag Lori out of there as she would`ve stayed for hours ... I anticipated that the kitty contentment she would experience would mean lots of nice and lots of love for me . . but even I was surprised how 
the glow of those kitty moments would last.  She was nice to me all day and all night .
