BACK TO BLOGG'N
I kind of dropped the ball on the blog, but since the craziness of the holidays are just about over, I'll have time to do a little "catch-up". As you probably figured out (since I hadn't posted in awhile) that Dave has been doing pretty good. He will have a PET scan Jan. 14th, and that will tell us what is the next step, if any. Of course, we are praying for his being "stable".
We had a wonderful Christmas, spending Christmas Eve with 30+ relatives at Molly's house, and a quieter Christmas Day with 8 for dinner. My sister, Dawn, and her husband stayed with us for a week, and we had a great visit. I tried my hand at prime rib, and I must give myself a pat on the back as it was delicious.
With all the snow (as beautiful as it is), it has kept Dave busy. It was a wise investment when we purchased the ATV, as Dave is able to get out and do some plowing. The shoveling is a little difficult for him, but he gives it his best shot.
I spent most of my "spare time" knitting Christmas gifts and working, etc. The knitted gifts were well-received, so it was all worthwhile. Next year, though, I'm not going to wait until the last month to knit 3 pairs of socks , 3 pairs of gloves, and two hats, all while removing wall paper, painting the upstairs bath and bedroom!! I know, I know, I've heard it before: I MUST BE CRAZY and have a PROBLEM! Is there anyone else "crazy" out there?
I'm not one to make a New Year's resolution, but shedding a few pounds would be a great start. All this sitting and eating has taken it's toll on me, but sure has "plumped" Dave up. We hope everyone has a great New Year, and we are praying for a good new year at our house too!
