We had a laid back Saturday because it is the first one we’ve stayed in town for a long time. The kids played a lot, watched tv, and made gingerbread turkeys. After my early morning yoga, I made a stew, an apple pie, and a huge batch of applesauce. I also cleaned the kitchen and dining area a million times because the gingerbread turkey craft is insanely messy.
Abe had to work almost a full day from home. His work has gotten so busy, and I feel so sorry for him. I also struggle with feeling upset at one of the people at Qualtrics who has made his situation so difficult. But Abe has a great attitude and has said that he is trying to route out fear and entitlement from his heart, because when he doesn’t have those emotions, he doesn’t resent all of the extra work so much. Qualtrics sure got a steal when they hired Abe.
Here are the pictures from the day:
TURKEYS! Take a look at these delicious monstrosities the kids created. (I, er, helped Mary a lot with hers.):
