The Turkey

It was warmer than it is supposed to be for this time of the year this morning but it was cloudy so I didn't get to see the sun come up. Today my walk was along some of the paths and also along some streets around the neighborhoods. I took a picture of these two Standard Poodles. The second one is hard to see but he is there by the fence.
I see these two most mornings if my walk takes me by this way. They always give me a little good morning bark. :-)
My pedometer reading for today's walk says I took 12,576 steps.

With shopping list in hand I left to go to the commissary. I took my time going up and down all the aisles. I actually enjoy doing the shopping. There was hardly anyone there so there were no lines to wait on. I picked out "the turkey" for Thanksgiving today and here it is. Its 10 1/2 lbs. Not a very big one because it will just be Ken and I and my parents. But it will be a happy day and I am really looking forward to cooking a turkey this year with all the trimmings. My mom will be bringing her famous oh so good apple pie. :-)

I finished reading Run For Your Life by James Patterson. I haven't been that crazy about his latest few books but this one was a good one again!!
NYPD Detective Michael Bennet is after The Teacher who is a serial killer.
Back at home Bennet's 10 kids are sick with the flu.
I can't imagine having 10 kids let alone having them all sick!!

I just ripped out the baby blanket that I started last week. I keep doing something wrong and then I think I fix it and the same thing happens again in another couple of rows. I think there might be some mistake in the directions. Anyway it has ceased to be fun so I'm not going to make that one after all.

Tonight I'll knit on my ripple afghan and watch a little television. It's still a bit early to watch TV so I'll read some blogs and then start my next book.

I hope you had a happy Tuesday.
Karen :-)
