ENOUGH!!!!


I've had enough of the winter roads. We made a recuse trip to Iron Belt (bet you don't know where that is) this morning. Terry got her wish for snow.
I'm just about all packed, the kitchen is the last. Tonight will be leftovers and the rest will go in the garbage. Weather going south looks good for Tuesday, Wednesday could be a problem, hopefully we get through to good roads. The weather in the south hasn't been the best. My next post should be in a no snow area.

H1N1

I debated with myself about getting the H1N1 vaccination. We had our regular flu shot and I knew we weren't in the high demographic for getting the swine flu. Thursday morning we were working at the church and I learned they were giving the shots over at the school and it was just too convenient for both of us, so we are now among the vaccinated.

-11 degrees this morning

I always hope that this cold weather doesn't come in until after we leave for the south, but that was just wishful thinking. I miss my walks, my Leslie Sansung exercise video has gotten boring, she is just too cheery.
I am sewing a Christmas table runner for a birthday present for a friend. Howard is making a table for the votive candles at church. He said he wasn't going to do it, but the new priest is very convincing. He needed a project.
The Christmas presents are bought and delivered, Christmas cards are mailed, I had my Christmas cookie exchange yesterday, I'm leaving them in the garage so I don't see them. I LOVE cookies.
I need to get on the phone to transfer minutes to my new phone, this will be the 4th day I've talked to India. Everyday they tell me it's done, guess what, it isn't.

Family Christmas Celebration


We had a fun Christmas celebration at Debby's this weekend. We went in the ditch on the way to Wisconsin Rapids, but got out with no problem. It makes me look forward to going south, away from the bad winter roads. We ate too much, because the food was great (way too many desserts). We had another weekend of games with the grandkids. I know I'm getting old when Caleb is quicker than I am. It is just so much fun playing with them, especially Kyle who entertains us all.
We made it home by dark. Today I'm trying to get Christmas cards started. Snow is supposed to be coming in. I should get my cross country skis out, but it's really cold.

Christmas Tree Dilemma



This years Christmas tree (looks alot like last years tree). I bought a small tree a couple of years ago, but it just didn't do it. I broke down and bought new LED lights, which means I don't have to spend hours replacing all those little lights that have burned out, I threw out about 10 old strands of lights. I need to throw out the old ornaments and replace the tree skirt and buy all new ornaments. I do have to get a new tree topper, I just can't find one I like. The angels all are so cheap looking. What I really want is the Sawarski chrystal tree I saw in Melbourne.
