Happy New Year, 2010

December 31st, 2009

In an hour and twenty minutes it will be 2010 here in Louisiana.    Brian and I will be watching the ball drop in New York at eleven o’clock our time.  Then I may just go to bed for at least it will be the new year in part of the USA.
I do not make resolutions [...]

What A Day

December 30th, 2009

I left home this morning at ten to run errands and did not get home until four this afternoon.  Needless to say I am tired and my poor ankle is screaming at me.  I bought an ankle stabilizer and it has helped tremendously.  I just could not get the ace bandage to work all that [...]

Just Two More Days in 2009

December 29th, 2009

I did absolutely nothing today except make a pecan pie and load the dishwasher.  I am using my ankle with tendonitis as my excuse to sit and read with my foot up.  One of the times today when I was coming into my studio I put all my weight on my right foot and thought [...]

Now I Know

December 28th, 2009

Had a doctor’s appointment this morning at nine and was there a few minutes early.  The nurse was late getting in so the front office did not have a sheet for me to take to the lab for my blood work.  Probably just as well since after I talked with the doctor he added three [...]

Scott Has Gone Back To Fort Worth

December 27th, 2009

Scott left about three thirty this afternoon going back to Fort Worth.  It was great having him home for Christmas.

The Day After Christmas

December 26th, 2009

The day after Christmas has been another quiet, restful day.  Today Scott and Brian were watching the NCIS marathon but I only watched about two episodes and then decided that I would rather read.
This morning I gave in and made homemade waffles for the boys.  Christy was sleeping late so she missed out.   I always [...]

Merry Christmas, 2009

December 25th, 2009

A few minutes before nine this morning, Scott knocked on my bedroom door and asked if I was ready to get up and open presents.  I suggested that he, Brian, and Christy go eat breakfast and then call me again.  About nine thirty there was a knock on my door again so I got up, [...]

Christmas Eve, 2009

December 24th, 2009

Dinner has been eaten, leftovers are in the refrigerator, and the dirty dishes are in the dishwasher.  Now I am going to sit here and read Christmas stories until it is time to go to bed or I get sleepy.
Yesterday my plan was to make a sweet potato pie and a pecan pie but scratched [...]

Scott Is Home

December 23rd, 2009

Scott arrived home safely and was here when I got home from church.  Tonight the high school girls Sunday school class had a gift for each member of the seniors Sunday school class.  Then when I picked up my Christmas movies from Ashley, she had a Christmas gift for me on top of the bag.
I [...]

Two Days Until Christmas

December 22nd, 2009

I am definitely getting rested up before Christmas.  Got up about noon and have managed to do very little this afternoon.  Well I did do a load of laundry, which is all put away.  I made a quick trip to the grocery to get needed supplies for the two or three different kinds of cookies [...]
