Happy Thanksgiving!!

What a day!!! For the not important part... my turkey took 7 hours to cook.... not the 5 that was suggested and I completely forgot to make the Wantagh traditional corn side... 'That Corn Dish' as it's called. I went to get it out of the oven and realized that I never even put it together in the first place!
For the sad important part, PJ called Stan this morning at the adult home to tell him what time he would pick Stan up. They said he wasn't feeling well so they thought he should go to the hospital. They took him there. PJ called the hospital (Huntington Hospital) and they said that Stan walked out without signing out or seeing anyone. So PJ called the home and told them to call him when he got back, thinking he got on a bus to go back. Well about 45 minutes later, the cops called. The hospital alerted them that he left and they can't find him so they were thinking of putting out a missing persons report on him!
PJ left to go drive up and down 25A looking for him! Everything turned out ok. Stan ended up walking back to the home... Huntington Hospital to Northport! NUTS! He got back about 5 minutes before PJ got there. Then the cops and fire dept showed up. They wanted to bring him back to the hosp for an evaluation. He wouldn't get in the ambulance so the cops put him in their car and PJ followed. He was there about 1 1/2 hours and they released him giving him a new prescription. They couldn't fill it because all of the pharrmacys were closed so he promised to take a dose of his medication that he was just on to hold him over. They came here, ate and then Stan wanted to leave. He never said a word!!! It was so bizarre. About an hour after PJ got home, the adult home called. Stan was refusing to take his medication! So PJ had to call back on a different # to talk to Stan. He was yelling at PJ for insinuating that he wasn't taking his medication. He better watch himself because he can get thrown out of the home if he refuses to take his medication. He's not moving in here!
THIS was a very LONG day!!!
