From the Two of Us – Happy Holiday!

Filed under: Updates — Both Sisters @ 9:44 am

Happy Thanksgiving, Everyone!!

PS from Susan — We had a great time last night with my daughters and new son-in-law.  My hubby had to work at 7 pm, so we ate about 4:30.  We stuffed ourselves!!

When John started to get ready to leave, he packed up a dinner for the person he was replacing (who had worked 7 a to 7 p).  He didn’t know if the guy was heading off to a family gathering or not – several of his co-workers are single men who live alone.   We all helped throw food onto plates and into bags: make sure you don’t forget the pie!

When John got home this morning, he said that the guy WAS one of the singletons who said didn’t think he would be having any Thanksgiving dinner at all.  Wow.  That is what I am thankful for today.

  3. Seems a fitting time to thank you, Rainey Sisters, for your great blog, patterns, yarn reviews, and for continuing to inspire.

  6. You were “Angels Unaware” yesterday……..that co-worker will never forget that someone cared enough to “send the best”. Kuddos to your family for being so thoughtful. Cathy Rootness

  7. Unexpected kindnesses are the best kind. How thoughtful of you all to remember someone who was working, and by himself. The true spirit of Thanksgiving, recognizing we have things to be thankful for and passing them on.
