This and That

Well now that we have all eaten ourselves silly, there is a lot to be done to get ready for Santa's visit.

We had a great Thanksgiving and our progressive dinner was a huge success and we are already planning the same for Christmas.

Today I picked a large amount of oranges and tomorrow we will squeeze them to make juice. I will freeze a few quarts for friends.

Tonight a bunch of us went to a new Ci Ci Pizza. Very tasty and the best sticky rolls.

Tomorrow we are hosting our annual N. E . Pats vs the Steelers football game. We are Pats fans, but the group we hang with are all from PA. It's always a fun day with lots of laughs. Good food, good friends, can't beat that.

Did you know there is a site that you can go to and send a free card to our military personnel overseas?

Let's Say Thanks


Did anyone get a great buy on Black Friday? Enjoy the rest of the weekend.

Thanksgiving Day Prayer


Heavenly Father, We bow our hearts to You in prayer,
We give You thanks for all You've done,

For beauty in nature, For joy and health, for friends and family, and for our daily provision, for your mercy and care. These are the blessings that You so graciously share.
Let us remember the true meaning of Thanksgiving. As we see the beauty of Autumn, let us acknowledge the many blessings which are ours... let us think of our families and friends.. and let us give thanks in our hearts. In Jesus¢ name we pray.

A Trip to Indianapolis












My friend Mary and I just got back from Indiana, where we attended a baby shower for my first ever, soon to be a grandchild. How exciting this is. The expected date is January 7th. It is just sinking in now that after being married over 50 years, we will become grandparents.

The weather here in Florida is chilly, running in the 60's.till the weekend. When we left Florida last week to go to Indiana, it was a warm 86, more to my liking. When we left Indy, we were surrounded by snow flurries, but at least they didn't have to deice the plane. While there we noticed that gas was only $1.72, seems to be getting better, hope it keeps going down all the way to Florida.

I gave up looking for a old curved oak curio cabinet and bought another style. I really needed to find a home for my collection and get them off the floor.

Stay warm everyone and have a great weekend.

This And That

What perfect weather we are having the past few days and it is expected to be like this all week, 80'ish and sunny I guess that's why so many people come here for the winter. Yesterday
I had to get my hair cut. When it gets to long , Bob says it looks like I am wearing a hat, funny guy, although I do have thick hair. Anyway we also went looking for a curio cabinet. All the new ones a shaped so squarely, and they just don't appeal to me.. I am looking for a oak cabinet with curved doors. I know, I'm picky.

Now that the election is over all thoughts will be of the coming holidays. The park here has a Thanksgiving
dinner at the club house for all. A group of us are going to try something a little different this year. We are going to have a progressive dinner and if it comes off fun, we will do the same for Christmas. Each family will offer a different course. I'll let you know how it goes. Have a great day.
