It was quite pleasant today.    Got up into the lower 60s.  Though there was a good wind blowing over the plains to make it feel a bit cooler it was not bad at all.    Vita and I went out for a couple of walks.    She almost got away from me again.    Somebody opened their garage door and scared the peewadden out of her.   I was able to introduce her to my neighbor Bob today.

She was, I think, glad that Paisley and Gracie went home.   She ran around the house like a crazy dog when she got up.    Oh well.    It will happen again and they did adapt to each other so I am pleased.

Got my port flushed today.    All is well.

Hope all is well with you.

What a wonderful couple of days.    Jim and his two doggies, Paisley and Gracy, were here for the New Year Days.   Yes Days.

I actually stayed up until midnight on New Years Eve because I had someone to talk to.    Jim and I toasted 2020 with his beer and my wine.     It was great.

Last night I actually stayed up until 9PM so it pays to have people in the house to stimulate my energy.   Don't actually know how I would do with someone living with me.    Jim for these visits is very easy and we enjoy it but perhaps both of us would tire of it after a while.    Who knows.   At least he knows he always has a place to come.    I love it when he is here and his doggies LOVE my backyard and the squirrels.     He likes it because he doesn't have to stay out with them as he does at his place.

Vita and the girls got along OK.   They didn't play together but obviously liked each other so it works.

Still can't believe that is is 2020.
Love you all

Here it is New Year's Eve already.       Jim came yesterday for a few days and we are having good visits.    Watching the dogs get to know  each other is fun.     All is well,    Tiva is a bit suspicious but tolerant -   She probably doesn't know how to react as they are so much bigger than the dogs she was around before.

Jim went over to Bart's to visit this afternoon.     Some Guy time.    I always believe in that.    They are good brothers.    I am truly blessed with all my children.

I'll be going to Mass for the Holy Day tonight at 6:30.    Then Jim and I are going to TRY to stay up til midnight.     Neither of us stay up much past 9PM    (Me earlier) so this should be interesting.

Anyway

HAPPY NEW YEAR
Love you all

I was an usher at Mass this morning.     Always glad to do a service for the community and I am trying not to get too overwhelmed.    The Mass was nice.  Full of Holy Family stories.

I spent the day cleaning out STUFF and making Bran Muffin mix.    It will go well with the Green Meatballs that I will be making for New Years Day.


Any takers?
