Good morning and happy Christmas, boys and girls. Maggiecat let me sleep until 5 this morning. Good kitty.

Still cold here but not as cold as the past two days. We're actually going to have a high temp in the mid-30s today.

It's gonna be a quiet day here. DGS was feeling unwell yesterday and probably wonn't be here :( so it'll be just DD, DSIL, DGD and me.

There's monkey bread in the oven and a breakfast casserole ready to go in when the monkey bread is done.

I hope by the time the bread and casserole are done, my peeps are awake because I wanna see if I was good enough this year to get chocolate and garden center gift cards🎅
 

Merry Christmas Everyone!

My day will be pretty much the same as all my days. No real plans. I didn't even plan on making anything special to eat. Since it is so cold, 10 degrees when I got up a little bit ago, I will be staying in my apartment. I have some computer work to do so will try to do some of those jobs........working on getting my printer connected to my computer is the most important one. Not sure how I lost it. Listening to my Christmas music and maybe some reading or writing. I shall see what the day brings.

Well.. the rain has stopped, the sun is making an attempt at coming out but everywhere is still very wet.. I've just been in the garden cutting back the IVY.. and generally doing a quick tidy...

No presents for me.. no Christmas dinner.. and no visitors.... so nothing changes for me today...

Same for me, but I have become used to. That is why I buy whatever I want and then say it is my Christmas present.

yes, , it's difficult for me, it's my first Christmas alone where no-one will be visiting at all.. but I'm just kinda treating it like another day. I turned the Music and the christmas decoration lights on yesterday .. but I haven't so far today.. it's gone 12.30pm... I may turn them on later... Daugher rang this morning, she was on her way to the Doggie park to take the furkids for a walk...
 
Good morning and Merry Christmas to everyone this morning.
The weather will be warmer here today...low 40's.
I'll go to my Granddaughter's for Christmas dinner, half of our family are in Virginia with the Navy grandson and family, so not so many of us this year.
Everyone enjoy your day.
 
Going to do something I hadn’t planned on doing today……shovel sNOw…🙁.
Temp at bedtime was -30c, woke up to -18c…….where’s my flip flops.
At 6:30 this morning…..clear sky…..at 7:15, sNOwing…..wasn’t in the forecast…..supposed to sNOw all day.🙁.

I saw this morning there was a late message from my foster daughter…..she said…..supper at 4:30 today…..that’s all she said, after over a week.
So I will take this as my invite.

I hadn’t taken the gifts over ahead of time like I usually do……so I get to watch the kids open my gifts to them.

Hope all will have a good day.
 
Bonjour à tous

Je vous souhaite un Bon Noël et bonne vacances d'hiver
I wish to you a MERRY Christmas and happy Winter Holidays!

I'll take an antihistamine, which really helps with the cold symptoms. I don't like taking drugs, but I don't see much point in blowing my nose and sneezing all day either.

This afternoon I'll host the online trivia game. I'll try to be gracious if/when anyone says you-know-what.

Other than that, just putter and relax.
 
I looked outside my window this morning around 6,we didn't have much snow but the gusts of wind we endured these past two days, was frightening at time,there are drifts by the entrance to the garage on both sides of the apt complex. The drift is halfway up the garage door, can't out of the driveway onto the street
I hadn't been outside since early Fri morning,so around 7 this morning,needed some fresh air all bundled up walked out our front door, drifts of snow across our street, a tree lost many of its limbs . We didn't have phone/ internet/TV since Fri afternoon. Everything came back on this morning around 10:30 except TV So there is a Xmas Santa.-YIPPEE Its p. sunny here temp is 'balmy' 20.
I just came back from another walk, not bad winds have subsided alot,may go outside one more time this afternoon
 
Well, I am up, I guess somewhere still inside me is that little kid that wakes early on Christmas morning. Just me, no presents, no tree, no visitors. I kind of like it, no pressure!!

The frig is full of all kind of tasty delights, the heat works, the dogs are happy. Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus, he gave me just what I wanted, peace and quiet, a time for reflection.

Sounds like my kind of Christmas! Enjoy it!
 
This morning the fire alarm went off but not loud like it usually does. Never saw where it was coming from and one of my neighbors checked and said it was on the first floor. Then he left. So I figured we were not on fire. Didn't think about it again till my friend who lives on the 3rd floor came down to visit me. She said the man across the hall who's wife just died about two weeks ago was trying to cook something and he smoked up his whole apartment. The thing is........he is blind. Uses a white cane when he leaves the building moving it back and forth in front of him. I talk to him a lot but he can't really see. Maybe shadows. He is supposed to be moving into a downstairs apartment and now I can't wait. He needs to be on a busier floor.

Oh yeah, our elevator is not working today either. Good thing I wasn't going anywhere. I would have had to cancel anyway.
