Hi Darlene. Well Xmas 2025 is fast becoming a memory. To be honest I’m always pleased when it’s over. The traditional Xmas’s are a thing of the past and it it’s all commercialised now.
How did you spend the day? What was your weather like. Did you have snow.
Here the day was a pleasantly mild 77f. I opted to spend the day quietly at home. My daughter and Granddaughter spent xmas eve here and cooked a hot turkey roast for dinner. Then on Xmas day my son who lives a short distance from here came with a plate of hot roast turkey, ham and vegetables. I had enough left overs to last me for several meals.
The past two days temps were over 100f but today it’s back down in the low 80’s. Yesterday, I was very effected with hay fever. Ended up by taking one and a 1/2 Zirtek and was still suffering. Much better today thank goodness. So far this summer has been quite mild but we will see what happens in January and february. They are usually our hottest months.
It’s New Years eve here and another year gone. I for one won’t be sitting up to see the new one arrive. Definitely past all that excitement.
I hope this new year will be a great one for you and your hubby. Lots love Pat.
Have a wonderful last day of the year Darlene .Im almost done with them goodies .lol
They came in handy. Got to the store today and i am stocked up for a good month.
It is supposed to snow tonight might get an inch of snow by morning.
What kind of drinks will you be having? I have almost a full bottle of Baileys which I hardly use and so i keep it in a small cabinet up top my refrigerator .
So i would need a stepstool to open that cabinet .
I graduated from high school in 1969 at the age of 17, so those muscle cars always made an impression on me! My first husband had a 1969 Plymouth Roadrunner, that he would race over at Kenndale & Green Valley raceways, on certain days of the month, "street legal" cars were allowed to race against each other in quarter mile drag racing.. oh it was so much fun! He had headers, what was called "slick" tires, 383 V-8 motor, 5 "in the floor" gears, some kind of special carborator, (for racing) we had to drop out once gas prices rose to 20 cents a gallon! LOL! BOY I would LOVE to see those prices again!
The eagle puzzle was a Christmas gift to my husband from one of his coworkers, they know we work jigsaw puzzles.

Hey There Miss Deb - Liked the puzzles.. Nice of you to think of me.. I would love to have the car in black with silver strips around it.. Love those muscle cars.. Back in the early 70s, I remember how the guys would rev their engines going down main street and us girls would scream and laugh.. Such fun times.. I think the car puzzle would have been more difficult to do than the eagle.. I'm not really looking forward to the new year.. All it means for us Deb, is getting another year older and having more health issues.. I'd like to stay put for awhile.. Good night xx Darlene
Very windy today..a cold front blowing in tonight. I sure hope we don't see any more warm temps. Had a bit of rain overnight..checked the rain gauge and it was just below 1/2". Made chili yesterday..leftovers still.
