Yesterday was a busy day. We got the kids' tree, a beautiful 7' fir, and dropped it off on their front porch. Then we hit two grocery stores to pick up our orders, and were a little early so had to wait at both stores. We finally got back to the trailer, had lunch, and then I wrapped presents. We have tree decorating on Sunday so we're going to take all the presents to Aut's then. They can go under her tree. That will relieve some of the crowding here. Today is babysitting.
TINA - Your leg has been bad now for a year. I remember the day it "went out" was about half hour before we arrived at your house, though now I can't remember if we were coming south in Nov or going back north in Jan. I sure wish there were better treatments out there. There are two clinics here in Austin that are devoted just to that. Have you ever checked to see if there are any in Cruces, El Paso, Albq, or even Tuscon? I bet you are excited about your new car! You are so right - black shows everything! We had a Black Dodge 3/4 ton pick-up for some years back in the 90's. When it was clean and waxed, so pretty! But mostly that wasn't the case.
BECCA - Doesn't Mary Q also have a Ford Escape? She loves hers. I'm so glad you kept your wheels. Gives you freedom! So nice to have a long visit with your good friend. When my BFF and I talk, it's always over an hour, too. There's so much to catch up on! We've been best friends for 45 years but she moved away in 1990 so we don't see each other much. You've put deviled eggs in my head so I'm going to make some to take to the kids next Sunday.
LORI - Did you get to your sewing yesterday? I was going to get out a project - and in fact, did. But then decided I didn't want to get into the middle of one project only to have my Fab Farm fabrics arrive and itch to start it. So, no sewing here at the moment now that my lotto blocks are finished. And yes, we're going to decorate the kids' tree on Sunday. We'll make a party of it! Hence the deviled eggs. I'm also planning to take a veggie or fruit tray, and some cheese and crackers.
Last night was a nice evening so we decided to grill burgers instead of the chicken I'd planned. We did french fries in the air fryer. Yum! Tonite we're going to have chicken. Weather will dictate if we grill outside or bake it inside. If it goes into our oven, then I will probably pop in a couple potatoes to bake, too.
Have you got any ideas yet for your supper?
