I roasted the turkey (breast) today and it is sliced, sitting in au jus in the refrigerator.  The bones are also in the refrigerator &#8230; they will be used to make bone broth later&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wednesday, Thanksgiving Eve Day was full of electronic glitches &#8230; and then, when I came in with Emmett, from our before bedtime walk &#8230; water under the washer &#8230; gah!  I mopped up the water and went to bed, hoping the problem would resolve itself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Honestly!  I have never known a &#8220;water leak&#8221; issue to resolve itself.  I cannot believe I even had that thought.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thursday morning:   more water.  I pulled out the washer and THANKFULLY, it was only an issue with the intake hose, which had burst.  Easy fix.  First, easy to shut off water to that hose, remove the hose and make plans to obtain a new hose on Friday (today).  Which I did and have since installed, done a load of laundry and all is well:  HURRAH!!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"698\" src=\"https:\/\/www.beardogco.com\/theroadhome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/TDelay0898.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-19625\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.beardogco.com\/theroadhome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/TDelay0898.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.beardogco.com\/theroadhome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/TDelay0898-300x233.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.beardogco.com\/theroadhome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/TDelay0898-150x116.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.beardogco.com\/theroadhome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/TDelay0898-768x596.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.beardogco.com\/theroadhome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/TDelay0898-52x40.jpg 52w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Onward with Thanksgiving fun:  Cranberry sauce, stuffing prep, pie crust&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.beardogco.com\/theroadhome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/TDelay0900.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-19626\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.beardogco.com\/theroadhome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/TDelay0900.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.beardogco.com\/theroadhome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/TDelay0900-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.beardogco.com\/theroadhome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/TDelay0900-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.beardogco.com\/theroadhome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/TDelay0900-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.beardogco.com\/theroadhome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/TDelay0900-294x196.jpg 294w, https:\/\/www.beardogco.com\/theroadhome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/TDelay0900-60x40.jpg 60w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The cranberry sauce!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"900\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.beardogco.com\/theroadhome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/TDelay0899.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-19627\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.beardogco.com\/theroadhome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/TDelay0899.jpg 900w, https:\/\/www.beardogco.com\/theroadhome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/TDelay0899-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.beardogco.com\/theroadhome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/TDelay0899-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.beardogco.com\/theroadhome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/TDelay0899-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.beardogco.com\/theroadhome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/TDelay0899-294x196.jpg 294w, https:\/\/www.beardogco.com\/theroadhome\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/TDelay0899-60x40.jpg 60w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>While I was keeping an eye on the cranberry sauce, I worked on my afghan block.
