January 23 snowstorm

Another snow storm.

 January 22. 2023

On Friday, we got 6 inches of new snow, and 8 inches are forecast for tonight.  We are surely having a snowy January.  I also don't feel well.  I have a sore throat and slight cough. We did get out to church today.  People are so happy to see Tom out as he has been so sick.  I will try to put in snow pictures tomorrow.

Flu bug

 Christmas2022 came and brought me and Tom a vicious virus bug.  Not covid but we were really sick for a whole week.  I lost 20 pounds.  Doc gave me Doxycline, which I can take.  All other antibiotics gives me allergies.    The medicine and friends praying are making me a wee bit better today.  I did a few simple chores in the house today for the first time in a week.  My sinus infection seems better too.  

Tom still in under the weather.  I'm too sick to cook, so Beth is making her great Mac and cheese for my supper. 

Molly and Sam enjoyed skiing the back forty and Sadie enjoyed sledding. She is such a big girl now.  All in all it was a fun Christmas after all.

 
 

  

Great Grandchildren

 The highlight or our Christmas was enjoying Molly and Sam's little ones. This is Rosemary,

Johnny Damon's Christmas wish for Grandmom

 Sara gave me this for Christmas.  I hope it plays here.

Christmas 2022

 When Tom and I returned from the Candlelight service last night, Sara was sick and throwing up.  We stayed away from her and by midnight, she was over the worst.  This morning as we awaited the rest of the family from Canton, we got word that Sam and Sadie were now very sick, so we are down to Beth and Charlie still recovering from  Covid. Tom and I were still well, Molly and Rosemary also well, and they came over around 10:00.  Archie and family came over about 11:00 and they were also well.  So that was the crew available to celebrate Christmas. 

We opened presents and snacked rather than having a sit down meal. There was fried chicken, potato salad, slaw, Salsa, chips, Beth's pumpkin biscuits and numerous cookies and candy.

Everyone had a great time visiting and playing with baby Rosemary.  

New Alarm button

 tom bought me a button to wear around my neck in case I fall.  He has receivers all over the house so he can hear the alarm. It also works when I am outside working.
