Good afternoon!
It's been one of those days around here! I first was getting the Christmas program all finalized for tomorrow. Since Christmas falls on a Saturday, I picked the closest Sunday before Christmas to do the big program. Well, the Ward wanted some of it on the 26th, after Christmas, so I was scrambling to fix what I had done. It is straightened out now. Then last night, I had forgot to take Ethan's letter out of the mailbox I have here for the grands to mail their letters to Santa - Ethan checked and was upset that the elf didn't take his letter - I fixed that this morning - first thing and that letter is now safely tucked away in the stash of grands letters. My Ethan will be 10 on the first of January and he still believes in Santa - no doubt that Santa is real! Some little snotball friend of Baden, who's 5 told Baden that Santa is fake, so we are dealing with that fallout on that side. Oh Ethan wrote in his letter to Santa that he would like a Baby Yoda Lego set - I have had that set for Ethan since September. Grandma was good with that one! Then the main house phone has been acting up and not ringing, giving a busy signal and all kinds of grief. So much that Sarah comes down to let us know it's acting up again. So Michael is trying to troubleshoot that. We won't even go the the operator error in trying to transfer the embroidery files from the computer to the sewing machine. I did finally succeed at that. So it has been a day here!
Dinner - I have some of the fixings from last night for Michael and has half of my leftover dinner for me. No cooking, just zapping in the Microwave - oh that has been giving me fits too - the door gets slightly off kilter and won't open by itself. I just need to tweak the hinge to fix it. It happens often.
Mary - seems like you are keeping Bill busy fixing things too! I didn't tell you about Lila and the her kitty - seems as if Lila went upstairs and shut the door - first red flag - found the Desitin and proceeded to put Desitin on the kitty. The kitty is a semi long hair cat and detests being brushed. But Aaron and Kate got the Desitin off her. Without getting too scratched. Kitty is fine now and I keep telling Aaron, you can't let that Little Lila out of your sight - EVER! So Scotty can commiserate with Sassy, Lila's kitty.
Tina - You are so good about being flexible with grandkids food - mine got me a sign - You will eat it and you will enjoy it! Not that I don't change up food here just for them. LOL!
Becca - glad that CA is doing better today. It's hard to do for them, when they don't feel great.
Our cookies, Russian Teacakes came out wonderful last night and they are mostly gone - cookies are to be eaten! We can make more this week.
Time to fold the church bulletin for tomorrow - then drive Michael over to the chapel to drop them off. He still isn't driving yet - the COVID brain fog is still slightly there and we want to make sure he doesn't get distracted by it as he drives. So i am the designated driver!
Stay warm!
Hugs,
Jana
