23rd November 2017
Thanksgiving day, so everything is closed except Meijer. Kelli was preparing a vegan feast to take to her parents where the family celebration is held every year. The meal of nut roast, roasted sprouts with cashew nuts,stuffing with roasted bread, sage and onion, and gravy was fabulous.
The only thing missing was a nice glass of wine, which is forbidden in the house. I had to imagine what it was like whilst sipping water.
Even the pilgrims fathers celebrating the first harvest would have been munching on their potato thinking ” this would go nicely with a glass of wine”
The day ended like every Thanksgiving day should, by a visit to A&E.
Greer, Kelli’s daughter had been suffering from a hacking cough for a few weeks, but as we were out in the car she started coughing, and squealed in agony holding her side. Taking no chances Kelli drove straight to the hospital.
Within an hour they had signed her in, checked her insurance, saw the nurse, saw the doctor, up to x-ray, saw the administer, double checked her insurance, saw the doctor again, he suspected she had a strained muscle around her ribs, so he handed us a prescription, and off we went to Meijer to get the prescription filled. There was an issue with Greer’s details meaning we had to pay a part of the cost. Kelli, gnashing her teeth was not happy, I guess someone at the insurance company will get an earful tomorrow.
Another Lifetime to go
