Dear Mr. Matthew,
I’m sorry for missing Thanksgiving dinner with you today. There are some important things for me to take care of or you know I’d be there with you. My housemates deserve something from me so I need to take care of them first!
Tell Nurse Rhine ‘Happy Thanksgiving’ for me too. She has always been so nice to me.
I’m afraid I have some turkeys to carve up myself. They’re not fit to live a day more. They are all just jealous of me is all I can tell you. I paid a visit to my parent’s house, they weren’t home, and got what I needed to finish my day.
Hope your daughter, Janet, is able to come and visit you as I know how much you are looking forward to seeing her. She will quickly realize what a wonderful father she has in having you.
Your Friend,
