Well turkey day went off awesomely!!! Set the table with cute turkey napkin rings and new trivets. I will try to put a pic here but blogspot totally sucks majorly. We will see. I miss putting pictures here but I never know where they are going to show up.
A couple of boys, Mont's friends joined us. One of them drives for Door Dash. I was digging into him for information. It sounds like a good side hustle for Monte. Monte loves to drive, can listen to music and not talk to anyone. Apparently they pay well, pay mileage and they get to keep their tips.
Dinner was delicious. Ange and Monte helped out so it made it easier. Turkey, gravy, peas and carrots, candied yams, mashed potatoes, stuffing....sooo good...at first. But for some reason the next day eating the left overs I get an uneasy unpleasant stomach. Too rich I think.
One odd thing...we opened four cans of cranberry whole berry ocean spray sauce. Three of the cans were liquid. The liquid tasted good but where were the berries and why so runny? It was the strangest thing!
Well I have some pretty good news right now. The mental health headquarters here in town phoned Monte the other day and told him he had an appointment yesterday at ten am. Probably it was a follow up from the hospital. We aren't sure about that but....I went with him and long story short the gal that we met with said that they were a short term goal setting program for mentally affected people. Jobs, health, connections in the community etc. We were there for over one and a half hours. When we left we had access to a psychiatrist (penguin list), a resource for help with taxes, tax credits etc....and they will help get him on the two yearsish list for subsidized housing. Suddenly life is looking so much better...maybe not better so much as hopeful!!!
Monte man took the shower contraption that Myles so kindly removed in our old decrepit bathroom, up to Home Hardware and is now installing it...not too successfully at the moment by the sounds of it. Oh!! he got it going perfectly! Yay!!!!! So here are a few pics!
