Thanksgiving

The day did not go as planned, but then my life rarely ever does. I was going to cook dinner at my house this year. Then Dave went home from the hospital AMA on Monday. He needed some one there full time. So the littles and I have been staying with him. Fast forward. Thanksgiving. Dinner needed to be cooked and Dave needs someone around so dinner was at Dave's. Tanya and the girls came over along with my mom and Pat.
Since my week didn't go as planned I was behind. Hospice came out in the morning to get that ball rolling. Dave is all signed up and was told to take his pain pills. He will be moving to morphine soon. His nurse used to work with my mom. Small world.
After that I finally got the bird in the oven. Felt like we were going to eat at midnight. Actually got it all done by 6:30 p.m.  And it was delicious. Dave even ate a bite of pumpkin pie.
Israel did make an appearance. It was so good to see him and I know Dave appreciated the effort. It was a holiday after all.
I'm not sure why Mike didn't call. I know he tried my house but I wasn't there. Guess I will find out when I talk to him next.
I'm glad the day turned out how it did and that we spent Dave's last Thanksgiving with him. Even if he did sleep most of it. He knew we all were there with him and for him.
