We had turkey dinner at a home style/upscale coffee shop with my mother and sister yesterday. The daily drive, with loading and unloading of the things we wanted to hand carry had been brutal. Our best time was 55 minutes on Saturday morning, the worst 1hr45min yesterday afternoon. So today we seriously start trying to get our office set up, with a break at 1pm for dinner. This is the holiday menu at the old folks home (the point value is shown, we share 900 points each month, one point equates with one dollar, looks like the three dessert options didn’t copy over):
