Hello Cuties, just thought I'd drop in. We had a wonderful Christmas and hope you all did as well. We had 23 here and I still had food when they all left, so the kids divided it up and took it home with them. My husband was leaving the next day to go on a hunting trip, out of state, and it was too much for me to eat by myself. He is with my son and my DIL just text me tonight that they are coming home early :( -lol- They were suppose to stay a few more days but it has been raining bad, so they are heading back tomorrow.... Of course I had floors to mop, the day after Christmas, but it was late when I did, because I kept Nora for my daughter to work Friday. Good thing I did get it done that night, because I got sick again the next day. I have laryngitis and just got over bronchitis, right before Christmas. It has been pretty quiet here and honestly, I have enjoyed the break, even though I'm sick. I have been watching Hallmark Christmas movies, TV all to myself. Haven't had it on a sport channel since he left!-lol-....The snowballs were a 'hit' and I did take a few photos to show. I'm not sure if I caught the balls while they were flying. Old and young joined in. Nora liked her apron and felt food and bag. Her mom sent me a photo of her, digging in her bag to cook, on her new kitchen/stove Santa brought her. I am off another week, so maybe I will be over this, before then.... I did do some sewing while ago. I got a new bathroom set, but had to remake the curtain. I may post it in Sewing later.Like I said, just dropping in -Toogie

I think I may finally be on the turn around. Today, I feel some better, so lets hope..... I start cooking/baking about 2 days before Christmas, would never get it all done otherwise. Christmas day, I do my meats, turkey,roast and either meatloaf or ham (most prefer my meatloaves) and my rolls. The day before Christmas I have my vegetables/sides cooked ( just have to warm for Christmas day, only way to get it all done) If by chance I haven't done the cookies, day before, I do them this day.Then 2 days before I bake cookies and pies, and also make my candies. I have a routine or else I wouldn't get it all done.

Knew of the Vicks and tried that, but didn't help this time. The cough med had codine in it and that didn't even help...The cough is better I hope I have reached the turning point, as today I feel better than I have. Thanks

Dizzies haven't lasted, they come and go, just short episodes. I do sleep better in the recliner, but then the back starts hurting. I have heard before, its no fun getting old-lol- So sorry to take so long to answer everyone, just haven't felt like being on too long.

The only time I watch the games is when my grandkids are playing-lol- and then it makes me anxious. I am starting to get a headache, probally from no sleep last night so I'm getting off a while. I do want to post those photos of dragonflyers snowballs, soon.

I thank you for the well wishes, but I have not slept all night. I did go to bed. I coughed and coughed, for one and a half hours, even after taking cough med from the Dr for bronchitis. I just got on up. I had tried getting up drinking water and going back to bed but the minute my head was down the coughing started. so... I stayed up and cleaned, straighten, threw away old,near empty bottles,etc in my hall bathroom. My bath closet is now so neat and so is my 6 drawers and middle cabinet. It makes me aggravated though, but I noticed I hardly coughed, once I was up.

Thanks and the same to you! I just posted the bath photos in Sewing but I have to look through my snowball photos. My daughter took some with her camera too. I know hers are better, capturing the movement, as for some reason my was delayed in snapping. It's a hassle to try to get her to bring her camera card for me to dl.

Chris, I cooked a pork roast,too. My family loves it. I also had a turkey,cooked in the Butterball oil free turkey fryer. Everyone loved that too, it was so moist. I didn't do a ham this year. Quite a few of the grands and son in laws like my meatloaves. I know this seems odd for Christmas but you give them what they want.-lol- Three of my guest were drop-ins, my son-in-laws parents and a niece. They spent the afternoon, but left before the evening meal. They had had their children over on the Sunday, and had their Christmas with them then. My daughter invited them over, since they would be alone Christmas day. She did inform me Christmas morning, but she knew it was fine with me. You may see them in some of the snowball photos I will try to post later for dragonflyer.
