in-laws, most of whom are conservatives and teetotalers, and a BiL who’s coming in from KC, and is not feeling well, oh, and stressed out about getting tested for Covid.

we may just skip out and relax at home. I’ll still need supplies.

What are you up to?

yeah, that sounds like a lot to handle. i just don't think i'm ready for bigger family get togethers.

my wife and son went to our place in Michigan on Sunday. my daughter and i are supposed to head up there tomorrow. my parents are driving up tomorrow to stay with us.

i think i've gotten 25 text messages in the last 2 days from my parents asking about what food to bring (we have grocery stores nearby, but my mom thinks she needs to shop near her and then pack everything) or what holiday decorations my dad can put up. i was on a conference call today and he texted me, called me on my cell, called me at work, and called my wife, all in the span of 1 minute -- wanting to know if i had an extra timer for the lights. i. cannot. deal.

I once spent almost three hours walking my mom through creating a gmail account, and sending an email. I’d like to think I’m a patient person, but man…

Papa Wease will only use the voice command with his iPhone. He absolutely will not type anything in. Google search is all but useless with his mispronunciations and southern twang and his texts are indecipherable.
