Now that Canada came out with an advisory to not travel on cruise ships outside of Canada, it may give me pause if I lived in Canada. In Canada cruises have yet to be given the “approval” as a safe form of vacation. That’s from March of 2020 to today, with no sign of it changing anytime soon. Just this week the Canadian Government said Canadians should not travel for non-essential reasons for 30 days. Final payment is mid January for our cruise and I’m in no hurry to pay. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The biggest gift for me and Sharon was the fact we were all together…….. Until are youngest daughter handed us a big box to open….. As Sharon opened it I saw a huge look of happiness glowing on her face. She was tearing up. All I am seeing is a big empty book. The daughters jump up, look in the box and start screaming with happiness. Then they start hugging on our youngest daughter. I am still not getting it. I am thinking they are happy she thought to give us such a great gift. Must of been something they been planning to give us but couldn’t find it. At the bottom of the box was a picture but I couldn’t figure out what it is. Must be a pic of the gift that will later arrive. When I glanced at pic again I thought it might be a picture of a makeup kit. Didn’t understand all the excitement. Then Sharon had me look closer. I am sure the ladies here will understand why the girls didn’t have to look as close at the picture to understand the beautiful gift on the way! Congratulations to you and your family 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am so mad right now. It's all about greed. Luckily I have a digital antenna laying around so I hooked it up so we could get my station I used to work at. Especially crappy at Christmas time when kids love to watch Disney holiday movies. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Haven't seen them in quite a few years. We have a local chocolatier that makes chocolate covered potato chips and chocolate covered popcorn. Both made with top quality chocolate, and are delicious! 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And a very clever way to share the news. We learned we were going to be first time grandparents when our oldest daughter was showing us a stack of pictures from their bathroom renovation. She snuck an ultrasound print of the baby about halfway through the stack of pictures. Middle daughter shared news of her first during a family trip to Disney. She handed us a bag from a store in the Magic Kingdom and said “oh, we bought this today”. Inside was a set of Mickey ears with “Baby Xxxxx” embroidered on it. (Not really x’s, it was their last name) Great memories. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least I can sleep late, but I manage to fall asleep late, so that's my average too. 5-5.30 hours sleep is a real gift. 2 hours ago, Ozark_Kid said: Until are youngest daughter handed us a big box to open…..

I was even "a step ahead of you" thinking that a picture of the 1st US was hiding in the box 😉 At least, that's what we got... Of course, DH was clueless, while I was jumping up and down 😁 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My average nightly sleep is close to the average for the year. I didn't know there was an app to track your sleeping. I would be afraid to see mine. I tossed and turned most of the night last. I don't know if it was because of the booster shot as I recall last March when I got vaxxed I couldn't sleep at all with one of the doses. So around 5:30 / 6 am when I usually get up both of my cats climbed into bed and curled up with me and purred me back to sleep. I woke up with Eva tapping me on my face as they wanted their breakfast. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sunshine3601 Posted December 18, 2021 #41073 Share Posted December 18, 2021 So far I have made a batch of rum balls that are chilling in the fridge to be rolled in godiva cocoa powder later on, made a batch of tollhouse cookies with M&M's, batch of tollhouse with chocolate chunks, 2 batches of fudge - one dark chocolate with pecans and the other is milk chocolate with mini marshmallows and one batch of oatmeal with raisin. I have to run to the food store and figure out dinner and get more confectioner sugar as I had a major spill of powder sugar everywhere including on top of Eva's head and back as she kept hanging out in the kitchen and getting under my feet. Tomorrow I will make Russian Tea Cakes for the first time, peanut butter cookies and a batch of oatmeal cookies with chocolate chips. Tonight I think I better start to wrap some presents. I have quite a pile of boxes and bags in my dining room to sort through. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are times I don’t need it to tell me I had a crappy night’s sleep. I already know before I look. 😂😂 4 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
