Thanksgiving was very nice. My parents came over, and all the kids and an extra guy, and we ate lots of good food and had good conversation. Later, we ate leftovers and watched a marathon of Pushing Up Daisies and played games. We hardly ever watch TV in the way that I did as a child. We used to turn on the TV because it was, for example, Sunday night and Disney's "Wonderful World of Color" was on. The theme song went, I believe, "The world is a carousal of color, color, color" but we used to sing along, "The world is a cellar full of crayfish, crayfish, crayfish."I have

I added another couple of jobs yesterday and so am very much not finished. #2 son arrived last night and I knocked off work then and there. I made beef stew and hot rolls for dinner, and we all watched "The Office" while catching up on his semester. We don't hear from #2 son much. The other kids are Facebook friends with him, so we catch the high points, but not the details. It was good to talk with him. I also finished the back of his sweater and he gently urged me to speed it up.I also went to the grocery. I'm making these two pies plus a French apple pie. That'll be today. A

The holiday is beginning. My husband has the day off. When my husband has days off, it often means that he doesn't get paid. His company likes to center layoffs around holidays, which I guess is relatively kind. That is, if you're going to be laid off temporarily, then it's nice to be able to think of it as a long holiday.#2 son will be coming home this evening. #1 son will, I think, have classes today but then he's off. He is working on a paper about Othello. He's been sitting by the fire reading Shakespeare, occasionally looking up to discuss some literary point. It's picturesque as all getout. #2 daughter is coming down after work tomorrow.

Back in March I showed you my work stock and flow diagram. I had at that point four sources of work -- I was, as it happens, trying to reduce the number of sources to the minimum and to restrict it only to people who would give me 1099s, in hopes of making my taxes simpler.Ha!The thing about stock and flow is that it doesn't respond immediately. If you are filling a bathtub and it gets higher than you want, you can turn off the taps and open the drain and the l
