There's been a lot going on and, to be honest, my eyesight is making it more and more difficult to concentrate on anything for too long at a time. Even now, as I type this, the, usually sharp, black letters against the white screen are dull and difficult to see. I am scheduled to have eye surgery on both eyes come February.
As a result of being missing-in-action for the past month, I have, inadvertenly, missed out in sharing the entire Christmas season with you. I will share a few pics taken throughout the season in this post.

and Handsome Grandsons, Too!
The season was beautiful and was one filled with blessing and wonder! Throughout the holidays I got to spend time with each of my six children and their families, including all of the grands and the two great-grands. It was a very enjoyable Christmas season and I have much to be thankful for!

Now, as the old year comes to close, my thoughts turn towards the fast-approaching new one and I look forward to it with great anticipation!
My Cousin, Nita (pronounced Night-uh),
Passed Away on December 20, 2024 😢
For now, though, let's just take a quick look at the week ahead...shall we?
This week's to-do list...
- Clean house
- Do laundry
- Take down Christmas decorations
- Place online orders for health and beauty products that I am running low on (vitamins, THM, Mary Kay)
- Place a Zazzle order
- Figure January budget
- Go to the bank
- Pay bills
- Celebrate New Year's Day
- Celebrate family birthdays
- Work
This week's menu plan...
As we move into the final days of 2024, I realize that everything is in disarray after the holidays...including my refrigerator, freezer, deep freeze, and cabinets. In light of that, I think it's time to take a food inventory to see what I've got on-hand and organize the list into meals. I will share more about that later. In the meantime, here's a tentative plan for the week ahead...
Christmas Cannoli
Monday - Taco salad
Tuesday - Black-eyed peas with ham, cornbread, and fried potatoes
Wednesday - Chili with crackers
Thursday - Chicken and rice with vegtables
Friday - Fish sandwich and oven fries
Saturday - Homemade pizza
Sunday - Leftovers
The Cake That Amanda Made in Remembrance
of John's Birthday. It would have been his 71st.
So beautiful and such a good job! Lemon was
his favorite! 💛
That's all for today! I hope you and your family had a wonderful holiday season and I wish you a bright and blessed New Year!
Until next time...
