I can't believe how what it continues to be. I love the sunshine, and I'm not really complaining, I just can't believe it. Yesterday was the 5th warmest Christmas in history. It's so strange. Mid to upper 40's? Winter may come later in the week.
I managed to talk to all my kids over the weekend, and tried calling mom (Aunt Loretta) but she wasn't home. I also got to talk to Kathleen and Gary. Who had lost my gag gift for Gary....but after insisting I sent it, they went back to the tree and found it in the tree skirt. But unfortunately I had asked how Gary liked his pistachio's? so he already knew what it was before opening it, so he pretended to be so surprised!
Kathleen and Gary sent me a new cook book for my pressure cooker, and a beautiful blouse and sweater combination top and I got to wear it yesterday to Lynn's house.
It was nice to celebrate with the Kiecker's and Bruce made such a great meal. He served both pork roast and spiral ham, along with 3 different vegetables and cole slaw and mashed potatoes. I stuffed myself.
We exchanged a few small gifts, and then we played a game of open and steal someone else's. We do this first with $1 gifts and then with $10 ones. You always have one gift everyone fights over, but only the last one who gets to exchange really gets what they want!
I returned home around 6 p.m. and then preceded to watch the Green Bay football game. I did get a few more packages wrapped, but not many. I'll work on more today.
May go out to pick up a few items, so I have to get dressed whether I like it or not!
I drank coffee at Lynn's yesterday, and thought I quite early enough, but I guess not. I was awake till 3 a.m. before I finally fell a sleep. When will I learn?
