My brothers wore rely hideous sweaters for Christmas each year.My nephew continues the tradition by wearing grandpa's awful sweater in his Dad's honor. It has been a difficult week here and we await news from Tana's new doctor. The dogs,as usual serve as cheerleaders and keep us laughing. We are re thinking our plans to travel to NH for Christmas with DS and family.As I was trying not to be upset, my DSIL sent me a picture of Camilla.Oh my. 41 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unseasonably warm temps here today and I can hear the wind gusting outdoors. I love maple syrup. I don’t own an ugly sweater and wish the concept should fade away. Where would we be without the Wright Brothers? Funny quote by Carlin. The meal suggestion sounds very nice but maybe as a side dish. Have not been to today’s port and look forward to the photos. Prayers for everyone on our prayer list, I’d like to add my younger sis who is having a hip replacement this morning. Cheers to everyone celebrating happy events today! Sending our prayers 🙏 and best wishes for your sister today for her hip replacement surgery. Graham. 15 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mamaofami Posted December 17, 2021 #36 Share Posted December 17, 2021 Good morning everyone. Yesterday we discovered that my blinds in the bedroom have mold on the inside that faces the windows. I run a humidifier in there at night and maybe that’s the reason. I have a handyman coming tomorrow and. Plan to throw out the blinds and have him clean the window sills and make sure we get rid of the mold. Not at all happy about that. Our senior center has something called community pass and if we want to take classes we have to register on line at a certain time on a certain day, and not a minute before 9am. I’ve never used the site before and missed a class on how to use it so I don’t know if I’ll be successful but plan to ask a friend how to do it. Stay safe everyone.

aliaschief Posted December 17, 2021 #37 Share Posted December 17, 2021 Good Morning! We made it to Jacksonville without incident. Besides attending birthday’s we also drove over to support and congratulate our daughter. She’s a married mom with two children under five, has a full time job as a Physical Therapy Assistant and yesterday she received her nurse’s pin. All those nights of school under a grueling schedule and she is now going to be a registered nurse. Well I grew up in Vermont so I grew up on the best maple syrup though some Canadians would argue that! Continued prayers for all and thank you to all our Daily contributors. Have a great weekend! 30 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare Crazy For Cats Posted December 17, 2021 #43 Share Posted December 17, 2021 Good Morning Everyone, thanks for the daily report. Today’s meal suggestion sounds good and @dfish recipes confirm. Interestingly I tried a pineapple rice salad with dinner last night and I thought it very good. My sister sent me a message that our DM fell in a parking lot and broke her arm. She is keeping me updated and I’ll check in with DM when we get home. Having the disembarkation talk in an hour. Yesterday while on the balcony I saw a cat. I am missing my kids and will give them treats and hugs when I’m home. 29 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare puppycanducruise Posted December 17, 2021 #47 Share Posted December 17, 2021 @aliaschiefCongrats to your daughter. Although I disagree with you about maple syrup, the best comes from our friend's place near Wiarton Ontario. 9 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quartzsite Cruiser Posted December 17, 2021 #48 Share Posted December 17, 2021 Good morning from sunny and chilly Quartzsite. The plan for today is to finish the cookies. Maple syrup is a must on waffles, pancakes and French toast. I gave away my Christmas sweeter several years ago. I would not have put it in the ugly sweater category, but others might now days. Spending winters in Quartzsite and living in Texas, it was just too heavy to wear. The Wright Brothers changed the world with their flying machine. We've been to Nags Head and saw the monument. I like the George Carlin quote, and always enjoyed his humor. As I'm not a fan of pinapple, I'll pass on the meal, and also will pass on the drink. The wine sounds nice. We have not been to Haulien, Taiwan, but I'm looking forward to pictures anyone cares to share. @Mr. Boston Sending good thoughts for a successful surgery and quick recovery for your sister. @ger_77 Gerry, I loved the cat meme. @Seasick Sailor Joy, what an absolute jerk that guy was. I guess theres one in every crowd. Hope that Walker's final days are peaceful, and sending good thoughts for comfort for his wife. @1ANGELCAT Good luck with your test today. I hope it gives the doctor some answers, and that while he does not have a great bedside manner, he will be able to help you. @dfish Debbie, I hope your sister gets her power restored soon. @StLouisCruisers Sandi, safe flights today and tomorrow. May your DMIL rest in peace. @smitty34877 Terry, sorry that you are having to reconsider your Christmas plans, but again this year, caution is needed. Miss Camilla is really growing and looks so happy. Thanks for the picture. @aliaschief Congratulations to your daughter for earning her nursing pin. @Crazy For Cats Sorry that your DM fell and broke her arm. but be thankful it wasn't her hip. She's lucky your sister is there to help her. Lenda 21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
