WOMEN AGES 50+ FOR JANUARY 2023

Thank you, Barbie!!

🎶🎶❤️🎶🎶

Worked then came home and started getting ready for tonight. I really don’t like waiting until the last minute. I cooked the noodles for the mac & cheese, washed the lettuce and tomatoes, breaded the pork, made the meringue and baked the pie. Lector at the church tonight and I’m hoping to leave early so I can get home to finish cooking. Also set the table

BK is open tomorrow. From 10 to something like 11. I honestly thought they’d be closed, but they’re not

kylia – I buy my honey from this guy down the street. You can see the bee hives in his backyard. Can’t get much more local than that!

I don’t know about any of you, but for NYE I just can’t decide if I should wear my red pajamas to the living room or my green one!

Barbara – do you have to take your recyclables to a recycling center? We’re fortunate, we can co-mingle, they recycle A LOT (even aluminum foil), but the bad thing is that they pick up recyclables only every other week. Well, on the weeks they don’t, I just don’t put out the garbage, we have so little. But I’ve had to borrow the neighbor’s recycling ours was so full!

Vince got Turbotax in the mail yesterday. That translates into “leave him alone when he’s working on taxes”

katla – oh no! What was the reason your hubby went to the hospital?

Carolhemma – welcome! My dh has the same medical issues you have !

KJ – so sorry about Chappie but glad you are there for them

M – happy new year to you!

Betsy – words escape me for what they’re doing to you! Is that what their religion is about? Bullying? Blackmail? I don’t think so. If it’ll help, let me know and I’ll ask Jess’ bf what his thoughts are. His family is very mormon, but he turned away when he was 13. I so agree with Lanette – “conditional” love isn’t love.

Well, I left church early. Usually Ken & Lynette come late. Like if I say “dinner is at 5”, they usually don’t get here until 5:10 or so. Well, I’d said “I have to lector, so let’s have dinner at 6”. I figured leaving church early, I’ll be able to get things done. And they came at 5:30. Thank goodness I had so much done ahead of time!

Usually, they leave around 10. Ken was talking to Vince and they stayed until shortly after the ball dropped. I don’t have a problem with them staying.

Happy New Years everyone! Jess called us right after 12. After Ken & Lynette left we called Denise and left a message (as usual)

Had pork chops. I was surprised at how little Lynette ate, ½ of one pork chop, some of the macaroni & cheese I made, and a little of the vegetable. I found out that she doesn’t like banana (wish she’d told me before, I wouldn’t have made a banana cream pie), didn’t have any cookies. I don’t know...I’m just a little sad that she ate so little. She didn’t eat any salad, said she doesn’t like salad (I could swear that she’s had it before). She said she’s “watching what she eats”. Really, I’m a bit tired of people saying that. Usually, nothing seems to come of it.

Debbie – CHICKEN SAUSAGE!!!! No, No, No….you MUST have pork on New Years, never ever fowl

Nene – welcome! Be sure to bookmark this site and come back often

Lanette – thanks for the first smile of the new year

Off to bed now.

Have another 45 min until midnight here but the neighbors have their Mariachi band going so I won't be getting to sleep until they are done.
Going to try sleeping in the bed tonight-first time in 2 1/2 weeks. I went in a bit ago and thankfully dh had put his c-pap on(it was off the other times I was in there). He went to sleep about 7:30.
Hopefully no asthma attacks tonight. Dh is off tomorrow and son is at his girlfriends house- hope to sleep in a bit tomorrow. Will have to wait and see.

Need to wake up my kitten so I can get my blankets and pillows and take all of into the bedroom.

Happy New Years
