So It's Cold

 So it's cold and going to get colder tonight. The forecast is about 9 degrees.  Not looking forward to that, being that I get up and out of here my 5:45 A.M.  I woke up this morning and I'm telling you everything hurt!  I know I've got some arthritis in my knees but not sure why everything else is all upset.  Geez.  Getting older is not for the faint of heart I guess.  Be brave!!!  

My youngest granddaughter will be here in a bit to hang out this afternoon so I'd better buckle up buttercup!  She is 4 and busy absolutely every single minute which means I am too.  We do have a good time together thought.  Last night I went to her preschool Christmas program.  It was so sweet!  Time goes so fast...I can't believe she is already this old.  👀

Later all,

Christmas

Did I say that too loud?  Christmas!!!  Coming at us at the speed of a freight train!  😃  Seriously, I'm still eating the pumpkin pie!  But..it is coming.... the shopping, house cleaning, tree assembly and wrapping are on my list now. Yikes!  I now need a nap!

The 3 Grands were here yesterday to help put up the tree and decorate it.  Three girls decorated that tree in record time!  It was like being in a wind storm!  😂💫  I still need to put out my additional decorations but what a start!

I am tired today and can't imagine why.  Doesn't matter, there are things to do today.  I have a friend I want to see today because her birthday is tomorrow.  The granddaughters are off to school so on to my agenda for the day. My thoughts are also being invaded by the possibility that I may not get that door stripped and painted that I wanted done before Christmas. Kind of a present to myself!  Well myself is just going to have to take the back seat again I'm thinking.😑

Stay tuned!

Holiday thoughts

 We are back from our little holiday away.  It was wonderful!  We unplugged for a few days.  I managed to read 2 books and started on the third.  The only way to get me to slow down it seems is putting me somewhere that I can't see everything that I think needs done around home or for someone else.  But...this trip is the perfect solution.  :)  Even though it was rather cold, we managed to get in a nice hike.  We have a lot of memories of this place because we have been going there for over 40 years.  Yikes! 

Each day we had homemade cinnamon rolls for breakfast, turkey of course and homemade pies.  (That's on my agenda to make before we go, but sooo worth it!)  Oh..and don't forget the homemade noodles too!  Yum!

Now that we are back, it's time to get back into the groove of our daily habits and responsibilities.  

It's time to prepare for Christmas.  Oh my goodness it's like time is speeding!

Later,
