Merry Christmas to those who celebrate!
Celebrated Christmas Wed. and Thur. because DS works on Christmas. We had Turkey roasted from local store one night. We were going to go out for steaks second night but couldn't get a reservation until really late. It is a popular spot on a Hockey Game night. We opted for Indian instead. DS and I split the scrable wins. A low key celebration. I like it like that.
Took Drew to son's house yesterday because neighbor called and said a coyote ran up our street. Thinking it would be safer at son's I took her over there. When I let her go in the fenced in back yard she started barking. A rarity for her. She had corned an oposum. Fortunately I got her away from the critter before any damage done. It is true they really do play dead to escape a dangerous encounter. I have seen possum in our yard which doesn't surprise me because we are so close to a park. I was a bit surprised to see one in son's yard.
Drew is still anemic but her hemogoblin count did go up. Her weight stayed stable. I made another appointment in a month to check it again. Still do not think it is ulcers. I quit giving her the medicine that made her throw up and constipated her for three days. I am adding eggs and bone broth to her diet. Also I am keeping her stress levels lower.2 -
Merry Christmas ladies
Been a busy morning... went up to Trudys for breakfast and had a very very small Creamsicle mimosa a small piece of quiche and some hash brown casserole.. then went to my daughters house to watch Carmine Tracy and Kyle open presents.. it was lovely..
Carmine got some platform boots and sneakers and a bunch of clothes.. but what had me in tears is Kyle came out with a carved guitar that goes on the wall with Carmine carved in it and it has a battery pack that you can switch on that backlights it..
I know how hard it is for them both to deal with this and the fact that he did that on his own is precious..
Tracy got Kyle. Timberland boots ,a record player socks,clippers to cut his hair ,and some albums..Kyle got Tracy nursing bras and a nursing nightgown..
And they got me the most cozy fuzzy jacket with a hood its like sherpa .. and its white and beautiful.. it doesn't have buttons but thats ok ..
Im going up to Sean and Jeans later.. going to take a nap first.4 -

Accountability:Chose well: BP, rx
Bonus: 1 load laundry, changed linens, 30 mins vacuuming and dusting, trimmed tree.
Just one thing:
Do good December.
25: Treat everyone with kindness today, including yourself.
Joe volunteered to take the dogs down to the powerline again! Now why didn’t I go with them? SMH.
Lisa four days alone with Corey sounds like just the restorative grounding needed. Glad your daughter and grands can be safe with you both. Hard situation.

Princess Bea’s party dress w/cloak! “White Christmas” is one of my very favorites.
Carol your GD’s Christmas dress and leopard shoes. The grumpy cat made me smile.
Katla would you share a pic of the teddy bear angel?
Rebecca “let it snow” snorting my water! :laughing:
Pip you and Kirby, and Yogi too of course.
Tracey it’s a cycle, walking makes him feel better which makes him feel like walking. Same with me, when I’m stiff and achy and don’t want to move, I try to remind myself that motion is lotion, and sometimes it works. Really hope your holiday is pain free.
Machka had to read your update twice, at first I saw “… walked on the water…” :laugh:
Flea really admire your ability to “have a chuckle” with your mom despite everything. You are an inspiration.
Evelyn, Flea, Debbie and everyone who may get a White Christmas, pics please? Weatherman is predicting a snowy rainy mix here but not ‘til early Sunday morning, then off and on again for the next few days. Somehow the prospect of slushy mud makes me really thankful not to have to leave the house.
Caught the last two thirds of “The Family Stone” and quite enjoyed it.
Rib roast is thawing, as is bacon for the roasted Brussels sprouts with dried cranberries and spicy pecans. Baked potatoes and salad will round out the feast. Contemplating Christmas cookies and eggnog for breakfast :laugh:.
Warmest winter holiday wishes to you all, dear friends.
Lighter, lovelies!

Katla Are the photos on your phone or on your computer? Do you want to use your phone or your computer to post the photos? How to post photos depends on the answers to those questions. Barbie in NW WA 1 -
We had a big meal with my cousin last night and another big one with my aunt this morning. Ham and sweet potato and my favorite pineapple stuffing. So good! Now I'm all ready for my new year diet push! As soon as I eat my Christmas chocolate! Merry Christmas to all you lovely ladies who celebrate!2

Barbie,
The photos of the teddybear angels are on my phone. I have one on the top of the Christmas Tree and one on the counter. Advice would be helpful. At this time I am using my computer to reach out for guidance but the photos are on my phone.

I texted a photo to you a few minutes ago. I haven't done this kind of thing before.0

We have a warm Texas Christmas. 83 right now, I feel like I am in Tasmania!
Carol and Lisa, your grandchildren are beautiful. Mine are mostly grown so have no pictures.
Barbara I. Tried to make the day fun by not being sad myself. Last night at Christmas Eve service a grandmother, her daughter, and the grandkids who were sitting in front of us all linked arms and sang. It brought tears to my eyes because I remember those days.
Our son is better but now another son has COVID. They believe it’s is the new version because it is more like a hear cold and low fever. They have 4 kids and two have gotten it so far. Guess we won’t see them for another week or two.
Been trying to set up my new. Apple Watch all day. I think technology has passed me by!
So blessed to have all of you in my life. Happy Christmas

We had about 1.5 to 2 inches of snow this morning but current temp is 35* and it has been melting. Now it has started snowing again. Supposed to snow all afternoon. DD and I have had a lovely quiet morning and are looking forward to the rest of the day. DD got us a jigsaw puzzle that makes a QR code. When you get the puzzle completed you take a picture and send it in. You can win anywhere between $.25 and $1,000,000. Bet I know what we will win.
Sue - so sorry about your interupted celebrations. Sometimes it seems things just do not work in our favor.
Everyone have a wonderful day, Sue in WA3 -

Read and probably would have responded more but I’m having somewhat of a pity party right now.
Last night we went to midnight mass. It was longer than usual so we didn’t get home until almost 2 which means I didn’t get to bed until about 2:30. Didn’t even exercise, just slept.
Didn’t realize that Jess wanted to facetime opening presents so we opened ours from her and Colby. She opened the ones from us while we watched. It was very nice.
Vince took me out to dinner at a Chinese buffet. That’s when the real pity party started in. It just makes me so sad to know that ever since PJ has been born, he has never been to our house. I just keep reminding myself that it’ll probably come back to her. We’ll probably eventually show him pics of our pool and our Halloween and Christmas decorations. If he asks why he never saw them I’ll just have to say “ask your mother”. But that’ll be in the future, if ever. It just makes me so sad that she won’t even try to come here even the week before or the week after Christmas. Even some time during the year. But I know in my heart that I just have to accept this.
In phone conversations, it just makes me so sad to hear her so happy that she isn’t here. Oh, she doesn’t say that, but I know. I know that she feels that Pete wants to be with his family, so she tries to rationalize not being here as doing what Pete wants. Of course, she doesn’t tell us that. But we know. I remember when Vince and I first got married. I was used to having Christmas with my family, it was just “weird” to do things differently. Eventually, I got used to it.
Guess it’s a good thing in a way that I’m working tomorrow. Something to help keep my mind off this.
It is so neat to see a pic of a grand and say “I remember when he/she was first born”
I’m so grateful to have all you ladies in my life that I can vent to.
Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas

Can you move the photos to your computer?
When you do, open the photo, right click, choose Copy or Copy Image, come here and Paste.

Barbara, not enough snow to take a photo of. Not yet, at least, we are supposed to get more tonight.
Busy day today, but it should make tomorrow easier, just need to put stuff in the oven at the right time! Well, and do the potatoes. I should set up the bread maker tonight so that I have bread dough in the morning and can make buns.
Pip, I got confused while looking at the photo of your old stove and thinking it was the new one. Couldn’t figure out why you were excited about it, then realized which stove was which! lol, the new one is lovely! Curious, does your brother work for a liquor distributor or does he think you need that much booze? lol, that’s a lot of bottles, enjoy!
My brain has shut down, can’t remember anything else. Hope everyone celebrated today in their own way.

At this point I still don’t know how to get a Teddybear Angel photo posted. I’m out of my depth. I am frustrated0

Machka- I missed what you posted. I am frustrated and may have missed your post.

Machka - I'm feeling as dumb as a rock. How do I move the photos to the computer from the phone?0

I attempted to send a photo to you and Barbie. You are far more skilled than I am, and Barbie is also more skilled than I am.0

I didn't receive a message.
Here's another option ... do you load photos to Facebook?1
