Surprise ~ Gobble, Gobble

Today, the day before Thanksgiving, I got up, started finishing the cleaning that I did not finish yesterday.  Washing the quilts on the sofas, cleaning the bird cages......I called Lori to tell her the weather and to drive safe.  Got the answering machine.  Hmmmmm.  Not at home.  Then, I texted Maren and said the same. 
Maren texts back and says "on the road".  Great, it is 11:22am and I figure they will be here at 4:30ish.  I finish the bird cages and get ready to get in the shower.   The dogs start barking.  (I had a little niggling thought......).
Yep.  They were here. 
Those dogs got on the road at 6am and didn't call!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! At least I was 98% ready!!!!!!!!!!
They have taken Mom out to lunch - now I can finish up and go and get some snow melt stuff for the steps.  It is icy out there.
May you have no surprise surprises!


Love, Leslie
