To all you Moparheads out there Happy Holidays.
X2,Happy Thanksgiving to all my American friends and forum members. I am thankful for a good wife, a good life, and good health. I am also thankful for my Mopar hobby, where I have met a lot of great people, seen a lot of great places, and lived a lot of great stories.
Hope everything goes for the good for you guys. Praying for your brother’s speedy recovery. Enjoy, these moments are precious.My family and I were supposed to be in Idaho yesterday to have Thanksgiving with my brother. Monday he called and had contracted Novovirus. Highly contagious, no visitors. We had to cancel everything. Flights, Airbnb, fresh turkey pick up from Albertsons, rental car….everything. Since he is in a full care facility (crippled with MS), we were going to cook him a Thanksgiving dinner and bring it to him in the private dining room. It was going to be epic. Everyone was very excited.
Alas, as of early yesterday morning he had been taken to the hospital for severe dehydration. He has to stay hospitalized until his potassium and electrolytes come back up and stabilize.
Since our daughter was coming from Virginia (she is the head cook), we just shifted gears and are at her place for Thanksgiving. Unfortunately our son could not make it from NM.
It was been an interesting couple of days, but I am thankful that my brother is still amongst the living (we are already planning another trip out, and we will have our turkey dinner with him), my family for just being the wonderful people that they are, my dogs and cats, my health, and my family’s health. I am also thankful for the members and staff of FBBO.
Happy Thanksgiving!
