Hiya BetterMost friends!!!!
I hope everyone is doing well.
Covid continues to spike in the area. NYC has gone back to 100% remote learning, and the Gov. of NJ is advising that people not gather for Thanksgiving. Thanks giving this year will be the 4 of us (mom, dad, Chris and I). My other brother Mike will be with his wife and Shana, Derek and Trent.
We had a sad phone call on Sunday. My brother told us that his partner on the police force passed away to a heart attack. He was only 50, and had a wife and young daughter. Everyone on the force is stunned.
Trent's 7th bday is the 30th, we are going to meet at a ride through attraction for Christmas lights. We'll be staying in our separate cars, and we'll have gifts for Trent.

Hiya BetterMost friends!!!!
The prep-work for tomorrow has begun.
The sauce is done, the sausage is cooked and now sitting in the sauce, and the meatball mix is chilling in the fridge. In about 10 minutes I can take it out and start forming the meatballs, and then pop them in the oven. Once they're done, into the sauce they go, and tomorrow, I'll transfer them to the crockpot and bring them to mom and dad's place.
I'll also make the corn casserole tomorrow, that's a 1-2-3 quick recipe, just mix and toss it in the oven.
I was off work today, and off work on Friday, but kinda-sorta still working. I have a large report to complete by 12/3, so I was popping online for work related purposes, but not answering client emails or team member emails. I had my 'out of office' alert on, and gave them instructions on who to contact.

Chuck, I admire how you are handling all these shifting instructions. You are an inspiration! I also admire your cooking skills. I'm cooking for Friday, when my family will get together.

I have some outdoor lights that I'm hoping to string on the bushes out front today. Today won't be warm, but it should be sunny, according to my phone. Right now the sky is boneless blue.
When you're at the drive-thru lights, will you be in separate cars? Maybe you could get some Facetime calls going so people in the various cars could interact as they go.

Good luck with the meal, but I'm sure it will go fantastically!
Cooking skills? I must admit, I need to follow recipes. I can't whip up a meal from scratch, just does not happen. LOL
As for shifting instructions, there have been a lot of changes at work lately. Not with personnel, but with job functions and applications/programs we use, so there is a lot of new leaning going on. I sometimes feel like a bird learning to fly, that has been pushed out of the nest.
