Hello
It's so nice that friends in your neighborhood help each other out with dog care,
Twins. French bulldogs are adorable.
Great that your cards are done,
Nancy. So sorry that kids & friends have disappointed you & that it has caused you to feel blue. (((Hugs)))
Bummer that your wrist still hurts,
Rose. Glad the heating pad is helping. Can you please share the name of the new planner you are using? Thanks!
Nice that dd43 & dgrands will be home soon & that dd26 will be around a lot next week,
Harriet.
Thinking of
Cathy -- wishing her & her dh a wonderful trip.
LadyM, thanks for the Co mmand H ook suggestion for rehanging some lightweight decorations that had fallen down here. Dh ran to H ome D epot & bought a package of clear ones & they worked perfectly.
I'll be waving my magic wand in the kitchen later this morning after posting here, baking cookies. Dh reminded me that he is available for taste testing
. I wrapped lots of presents over the weekend while listening to Pam & Peggy's "Home for the Holidays". Still have some family gifts left to wrap. I also visited CEO's site to print a few things. Started to get sidetracked reading her article on planners but will save that for after Christmas when I sit down to really focus on 2024.
A few weeks ago dh & I went to a Christmas Craft Show with hundreds of vendors. It was fun even though it was very crowded. One booth was selling cake pops in various flavors. I picked two up & asked how much they were. $4.00 --each! I said thank you & put them back. Soon after a flyer came from S am's C lub & they were selling cake balls (pops without sticks) much, much cheaper so I treated myself to a package when we were there last Friday. It still would have been cheaper to make them myself but I saved a lot of time not having to bake the cake part, roll them into balls with frosting, dipping & drying them & cleaning up afterward. They're delicious. I was also delighted to see that S am's has broccoli, cauliflower & carrots again! Just not in one bag anymore, but separate ones. We love roasted veggies but I was getting a little tired of our default Brussels Sprouts. Dinner tonight will be salmon & roasted veggies -- yum.
Looking forward to breakfast with a dfriend tomorrow. I'll package up some of the cookies to bring her.
~~~Waving & wishing you all a wonderful day!
