Thanksgiving was great at Mom’s with everyone chipping in with food and Mom making the turkey, stuffing and gravy (yum). Music was had with the Newkirks contributing their usual piano, and Claudia told about how she wants to be a teacher. Sylvia says she wants to get the Cleveland version of Monopoly. A good time had by all.

The day after Thanksgiving I did some music assignments and some German tests on the dative case. Zu and zum!

I need to do the dishes and clean my room. I got involved in Peter van Inwagen’s Metaphysics, and he compared Spinoza’s monist metaphysics, I think he did anyway, to a carpet with wrinkles in it. Good to get back into philosophy and I am hoping to teach Business Ethics next semester.

Still looking forward to the Background Music gig on Dec. 5th and being thankful that it is only background music that is wanted. I think I can handle that, even for two hours.

Thank you, God, for everything!
