We had snow - again.   Actually twice today.   I woke up this morning to a lovely snowfall.   It even covered the grass a bit but was gone by noon.    Then we got a bit more this afternoon - late, but it did not stay on the ground.

I was home all day and did some sewing.  I am feeling like doing creative things again.   Am glad of that.   For months I have felt rather empty.

I called Suzi tonight and we had a really nice long talk.

Tomorrow I will go to see Dr.Toy, my chiropractor.   I am a bit sore in the neck and have a sore hip.   Perhaps he can help.

It was COLD today.   In the low 30s to upper 20s.   I know, I know, you friends and family in Wisconsin consider that spring, but I am COLD.

Went to lunch today with two of my neighbors at the Cracker Barrel.   We realized we are all widowed and it is nice to have a meal and visit with others sometime.    We all enjoyed it and decided we would do it again when it is a bit warmer.

Aside from that, it was a totally quiet day.   The kind that Nicky likes a lot.   He really prefers if I don't leave the house at all.

Just got home from a lovely Christmas Eve Secret Santa Exchange at the Adam and Alexia Benoit's home.    We had a super spread of good food (I brought candy).

It was fun and nice to have children around opening presents and playing.   Not an unhappy one in the group.

I got a Pioneer Woman tea kettle, lazy Susan and measuring spoons.   Really pretty.   I am going to relegate the old black tea kettle to the cupboard and have a pretty one instead.
