I had my port flushed today.    They do that once a month to be sure that there is no clotting.   I do not look forward to having to do this for the foreseeable future, but see no choice.

Spent the rest of the day catching up on stuff.   Tomorrow I am going to get started on Christmas cards.   I am starting to receive them.   Bringing smiles to my face.

Well,  I did something goof again.    I have the packages all sealed and read to mail and I put in the Christmas card with a Christmas poem that I wrote.    Unfortunately, I grabbed the wrong poem and you have all read it in the Past.    Silly me.    

So I am going to publish the poem for this year right here in this Blog TODAY


THAT NIGHT

Shining
The stars led the Magi
Angels announced the joy to the shepherds
Yet in the quiet night'
Peace reigned on earth
That Night.

Went to Mass and Bible Study this morning.    We are discussing a book called "Forty Anti Catholic Lies" which is very interesting.    We picked this up to discuss between the parish actual bible studies.   Next week we will still discuss the book, then when we pick up Bible Study on January 9th we will join the parish in the study of Colossians,  letter of St. Paul.   Should be interesting, I haven't been in on any discussions of Paul's letters before.

Spent the rest of the day "sorting" candy to send to my kids.   You are the main people who read this so you know that I made it again this year.    Buckeyes and Fudge.     I plan on mailing the packages on Monday.   Then I am down to just Christmas cards.   By the way, your Christmas Cards will be in your packages.

It was in the mid 50's today and quite pleasant.   We are supposed to get blustery winds tomorrow.   Glad I can stay home.

Well, I see that I have been lazy again.

Last night I was at the Quilt Guild's annual Christmas Party and pot luck.   One of our members graciously opens her lovely home to us each year for this.     We just gather, eat and do a secret Santa gift exchange.   It was fun.   I brought a macaroni salad that I hadn't made in years.   It turned out OK.    The group is so friendly and Barbara is also a member.

Tonight was the Writer's Club.   There were only three of us there tonight so we finished WAY early which is all right with me.   I read a couple of poems.

The weather has been quite calm and I think mild the past couple of days and should continue that way until Thursday when we may get flurries.    No accumulation of snow however, so that will be OK.
