Hello everyone. Hope the weather is better at your house than it is here. We're under a winter storm advisory throughout the night and ending tomorrow morning. Not sure if we're going to get to our Christmas celebration.
Got the rest of the blocks made for my quilt and have almost all of them squared up. When I finish that part I'll be ready to lay them out to see what it looks like. Maybe get that done on Sunday. we decided not to try to go to rehab today. It has been snowing most of the day. Just lightly but probably starting to stick to the road and not worth it. DH can make up the day some other time.
Didn't sleep well last night so feeling a bit groggy all day. Still so excited about our new puppy. DD went to see him this afternoon and says he is very tiny (not quite 6 weeks old) and has a chubby tummy.
Marie Calendar meals for supper tonight. Better get them in the oven. bettyj

I will go to Costco after the 1st of the year, just renewed. I don't mind Costco, but hate the traffic on the road to get there, huge shopping center, or did I write that some where else. I enjt
Betty J, I'm sure you didn't mind missing rehab today, but hate that you are having snow and may miss the Christmas celebration. I do not miss snow. I don't miss cold.
Know what I'm getting the grands, gift cards. Usually send some kind of good food thing to my steps, they are all in North Carolina and enjoy munching. I miss when we had little ones and buying Fisher Price toys was my domain, the school house, the village, Barbies, legos.
But having fun putting Santa bags in the neighbor kids mail box. Today was the little $1 containers of honey grahams. My friend asked what will happen if they tell friends at school that Santa is leaving them treats? Will they all want to know why Santa is ignoring them? There is a Dollar Store near WW and I will stock up a bit there. Get some little trinkets.
Should be in bed but having internet problems so on the phone with AT&T. At least she was knowledgable and downloaded some software to my modem. Trying to pay my bill was a night mare talking to them.
Looking forward to WW meeting in the AM, then I make my rounds on the way home, Trader Joe's, Target but don't need Publix.
You all have peaceful dreams and a super night's sleep.

Hi all, Our day was sunny and bright but windy and chilly. Nights have turned cold for us...supposed to get down to about 27* in the morning. Thank goodness we warm up later in the day...probably into the 50s. Betty J, hope the snow lets up and you get to go to the family affair. BTW did you get to go to the surprise concert with DD last week? Who was giving the concert? Hope you didn't get snowed out of that. Happy for you and DH getting a new family member. DH doing pretty good, gets tired easily but that's to be expected. He will get a post op check up Mon. I'm still working on cards, otherwise I'm ready for Christmas. Today I actually sent a Christmas email to several close friends and told them Merry Christmas....I just can't do many cards this year....my writing has gotten pretty bad thanks to the arthritis. Miss Manners would probably make me stand in the corner. Our DDs took over Christmas dinner and are letting me make deviled eggs and a dip....Artichoke, cheese dip....Geri put it here last night and I want to make it. One of our favorite steak houses have it and we love it. Time for p.j.s and a good book. Have a good night. Sweet dreams. Pat

H everyone, another almost at an end. I did my big grocery shopping and then went to my Knit Wits gp. It is fun to sit and chat with other crafters for a couple of hours. This evening I have been listening to an audio book and crocheting.
Betty, I hope you get to your Christmas event tomorrow. But if the roads are a mess it would be safer to stay home.
Geri, I can tell you are having a lot of fun playing Santa. When the bag guy was loading my groceries into my car today he said I would make a good Mrs. Claus. I think I would have fun doing that.
Pat to heck with Miss Manners if she had arthritis in her hands her hand writing would probably not look so great. I hate that my hand writing is terrible. Hope your DH continues to get better and regain his strength.
Good night. Sleep well.
