Happy Turkey Day....and Black Friday!

Well, I wish I was in Houston enjoying turkey, mashed potatoes and the whole bit....including ending the night with some shopping! Black Friday deals. So sad I'm gonna miss it this year.

So, I don't think I've told you guys (besides mom) that his Hummer deal fell through. Well, it was a go, we had the money in the bank for it and everything. Well, Gavin was going to meet this guy (Mike - owner) at 3 pm at the Transportation office to transfer the title and all that junk....well, Mike calls at about 130 and says that he was just at a traffic light, and he went to take off, and nothing.....he was getting the Hummer towed. Transmission needs work. Needless to say, he returned our deposit and we're looking again. We went out to the automall last night to take a look around. We looked at a few vehicles. There is one that we're gonna go look at tomorrow...in the light. It's an 07 Hummer again. Black. Only 24k kms on it. The story is (so we're told), the previous owner is the owner of Geant (closest you'll get to WalMart) at Ibn Battuta Mall. He just bought 2 new vehicles (Bentley and Porsche) before Eid (about 2 weeks ago), and he left his Hummer at the dealer for them to sell. Anyways, the interior is almost perfect, small imperfection in the dash...a button missing...and the outside has a few knicks in the paint. We're going to look at it again early tomorrow.

Tomorrow, we also have some appts to look at places for rent. I can't wait until we have a place. This apt living is annoying. Having to take the dog out on the leash everytime he needs to pee. I think he's on a pretty good routine, so I appreciate that. It will be nice to let him run around again...and so Gavin can chase him in the yard. Everything is tile here so he gets no traction and I don't want him to wrap himself around a table leg or something. We don't need to be making any trips to the vet. He does like to lay out on the patio and park himself in the sun. After a few mins he'll come back in the apt panting. Funny little man.

Gav and I went out for Thanksgiving dinner last night. He had a beef pie with mashed potatoes and gravy. I had pizza. We did our cheers to Thanksgiving over that meal! hahaha. Maybe we'll have a real meal at Xmas.

I might go for my first trip to Abu Dhabi this week. I think Gav (and Gary) will be going almost everyday this week....so I thought maybe Gary's wife and I can tag along and they can drop us off at the mall, until they're done. I haven't been there yet so if we do go, I'll have to do my research!

Well family....thats all for now.
Love Conster.

PS Lor, thanks for the gourmet meal tips. I may have to try that.
