Our Grandson just left with his two daughters.... what a nice guy he is. He called to see if it was ok to come and i said as long as I didn't get too close to the girls it would be just fine so they came..... such sweet little girls he has.... but he is a great guy too so it figures....... They brought us a framed picture of the girls and a beautiful Christmas tree ornament with a stand..... we are blessed
I still have this darn cold so am getting "plenty " of rest and so is Leo.. the only thing I did today was take a shower and fix my hair and do dishes... oh and ordered a new pair of shoes. I like birkenstocks and they sold a pretty pair today to match my new purse so I thought I needed a pick me up and splurged......
Havent been doing much ...... the other day I went to the drugstore to pick up some pills and of coarse Church on Christmas day (which I enjoyed) and just doing laundry and cleaning house.... same ole same ole things. I don't sleep in the daytime so I get a good rest at night. drinking plenty of water and orange juice and the cold seems to be loosening up finally.
Our new neighbor stopped by today to bring me some toasted pecans she made.... with the sugar etc.... very good but I probably will be only one eating them ,,,, nuts are good for me but can be fattening too so I have to watch it. Julie gave us a big basket of goodies too and guess who is eating that.... I have to find someone to share with. she has bags of candy from the good candy store and carmel corn and fudge among other things in there.... I have to share with someone before I eat it all..... Leo won't eat sweets any more because they don't taste right to him.... lucky me huh.... I love sweets but I was just beginning to lose weight again now that I have this cold....
we had a quiet Christmas but it was still nice. We all got lots of presents ~ actually too many. Leo was just looking and wondering what to do with it all. He just gave a bunch of clothes away and now he has to fill the closet up again....
Carley is home with Rick this week and they are supposed to be making a popsicle stick house... if they do I will show you the picture of it.
So thats about it around here..... we did get some snow yesterday and we had enough to shovel. it looked so pretty but it got warm and mose of it is melted already, Im sure we will be getting a lot more. too badit didn't stay for the kids on vacation so they could go and play in it longer. we always liked it when it snowed at Christmas time. Did you?
Hope you are have a nice Christmas time and Happy new year to you too in case I don't find my way in here sooner.... My sister Angel pulled my arm with a comment so thats why Im here now..... :) Sandra

How lovely to seeyour Grandson and great Grand-daughters ,I hope the cold soon goes ,sounds as though you enjoyed Christmas ,and got lots of presents...love Jan xx
It's a good thing your sister keeps reminding you it is time for an entry. I'm sorry that cold is hanging on. I have heard that you are supposed to FEED a cold and starve a fevor, so keep on eating, maybe it'll help it go away. Lots of oj always helps me. I got lots of gifts too and also a bag of those pecans from my sister. I'm waiting til after my son and his children leave to begin putting things away. It'll probably take me to the middle of January to be back to normal here. Take good care and next time surprise your sister and make an entry before she says something. 'On Ya' - ma
Ha, it worked!! I thought you might need a little coaxing. I bet you just love seeing those girls and getting the picture. I figured your colds were still pestering you; mine lasted l2 days. New shoes is a good idea. I was feeling a little down so I also ordered something......a new game called "Apples to Apples," and some yarn. You sure are getting some wonderfully tasty things as gifts; too bad I don't live closer :) I'm curious to see the popsicle stick house; it sounds like it would be fun to make. Now you and Leo take care and keep drinking that orange juice so you can have a Happy New Year. Angel
Hope you feel better soon. We have just gotten over our colds here.
