and it is Christmas! Happy Birthday Jesus!
Yesterday was a wonderful day for me! My kids together with me at one time. It doesn’t happen very often. Actually this was the first time we had all opened presents together since before Jim died. The food was good and the kids all took home most of the leftovers. I didn’t keep any ham as it is a big NO NO for me. So what was left of a 14 lb spiral sliced ham was divided among them. I kept turkey and a little bit of other stuff. Today I am eating a big turkey sandwich for my Christmas lunch.
I actually received a big Christmas edition of the Peoria Journal Star this morning. I didn’t know they published on Christmas. They didn’t last year. They must not want to miss out on the Sunday ads.
It is an absolutely beautiful day checking in with bright sunshine and 34 degrees. Much different than last year when we had 8 inches of snow for Christmas. I hope the weather stays like this all year long.
I hope you are all having a wonderful Christmas Day. Do stay safe and be happy!!
Beth

I had a very good Christmas Beth and I see you did as well.
ReplyDeleteSorry not to have commented earlier Beth I admit I find it hard to keep up with you, heaven only knows why as i don't have many pokes nowadays as everyone appears to have deserted me.
ReplyDeleteIt must have been a bittersweet moment opening your presents without Jim. but good on you, you did it.
I'm now on soup to give my tum a rest from all the rich food, then I'll enjoy a good tuck in one day next week.
