Definitely TGIF today. I don’t know if it’s allergies, or if I’ve caught the silly cold that a couple of the other students have, but I’m congested and have a ticklish throat. There’s not much on the plan for tomorrow so I’ll probably work in the yard for a good part of the day. I have to pop out for an eye exam, which I would have canceled except it took a couple of weeks to get (at a time that was convenient). It’s just that the forecast is for a beautiful day so I’d like to spend time outside. Even if it is doing homework.

Oh yes, and I have a turkey to thaw, brine, then roast. It’s an experiment to get us away from eating the lunch meat style turkey that I’m getting right sick of. In a couple of weeks they’ll likely be even cheaper as Canadian Thanksgiving rolls around, however, I thought I’d try one now. So some of it will be brined and roasted and I’ll probably keep one or both of the legs for Sunday dinner.
