We spent Thanksgiving day at the home of Karen’s brother John and his family. Lots of fun with all of the cousins together (a rare treat), and a great meal.
Then we headed up to Niantic, Connecticut, about halfway home, where we discovered a new restaurant for breakfast, walked on the boardwalk, and found interesting seashells and rocks. Then a stop at the Mohegan Sun for video games, a little shopping, and dinner at Johnny Rockets.
Now we’re home for a weekend of overdue winter preparations and some work on getting the new house started. Now that we have the permit, we have to scramble to get the foundation in and inspected before the deep freeze. Then we can get the framing and sheeting up and the roof on and we’ll be able to work dry and reasonably warm when winter arrives.
The Pajama Game is all done, and it was amazing, playing to a sold-out house on it’s last day, Sunday the 18th. It’s tiring, but I’m really going to miss it. I understand why we only do six performances, but after working on the play for nearly three months, it’s hard not to keep it going at least a little bit longer. Besides, being on the stage is an incredible high!
Karen’s Lowes store is now officially open, having had its Grand Opening celebration during the last weekend of my play. It was very exciting, especially when, on Friday, the squirrel cage fan that was inflating the giant balloon on the top of the store caught fire, prompting an evacuation. But everything elese went fine, even without the big balloon.
