Ho Ho Ho! Hurray!



The patio is finally finished just in time for Christmas. The greenish stain was applied the last day the sun was out.
The Christmas cactus is blooming and the weather is a warm 68 which doesn't much seem like winter.
We put up our decorations today including the tree inside. Mom was here for lunch and dinner plus a egg nog with a "stick." It's supposed to be very cold next week but we're prepared.

Happy Thanksgving

What a beautiful day! We've had some unusually warm weather and the sunshine was spectacular.

Marylou and I cooked all morning and ate all afternoon or so it seemed to me. I took desserts and cranberry relish out to Larry's for the big dinner there. Mom came out to enjoy all the crowd of boyfriends, in laws and friends of the family.


I finished the ramp for Mom's wheelchair so she can get into my house easier. I've ordered a transport chair for her that's narrower than the one she's given by her facility. She hasn't been able to enter interior doors as they are more narrow than the exterior ones.


My next project is to stain the patio concrete Stone Moss. I want to have it all ready for Christmas so I can have everyone especially Mom over.
