NYT list Again! And, a MacBook!

overcast, drizzle, but clearly later - apparently! temps 10

Doug arrived this morning...drove through the night from Toronto. Quite a smart thing to do since the roads are crazy during the day with people doing Thanksgiving travel.

Had blueberry pancakes and bacon for breakfast...and we're now all chatting and catching up. The wonderful Nancy has come by to help with our latest purchase...

Wait for it...

No, not a pony...

A MacBook!!!! Yay. But Nancy is getting it all configured and installing stuff. They would have done it at the shop but we needed to rush to get Rob and Audi at the airport.

If I write a long enough blog, the breakfast dishes will be done. I can hear the clinking from downstairs.

Can hardly wait to take the MacBook on tour next week.

Thank you ALL so much for your advice. And to the lovely Bev in Peterborough for her help too.

It's a beautiful little machine. I'm very excited about it.

And, another piece of fabulous news. We're on the New York Times list for the second week in a row. Dropped to 24th - but I am thrilled!!! And I didn't even have to buy 10,000 copies myself, though I was willing to.

We're hoping to have a quiet day here, talking, going for walks, eating pies, and reading by the fire. Will talk to you tomorrow.

Thank you for all you give to me.
