The living room is ready for the tree now. I moved the loveseat into my room and the birds where the loveseat was. I shampooed both places before putting the birds in their new spot. Now all I have to do is drag out the tree and put it up.

So anyway I did not make it to my Christmas dinner/party. Pat has not come home from work yet. At least that is where he is supposed to be. I don't know because he does not answer his phone and the shop is not answering either. He knew how much I wanted to go. Without a car I am stuck. Not like I can call a cab, there aren't any in the country. It really makes me mad. Everyone else where he works at would leave if they had something to do, not Pat. At least not for me, maybe if it was something he really wanted to do. It is done. No need to cry over it anymore.

My Blackie is hurt. He is limping. He will not let me check it out to see what is wrong. Everytime I approach him he takes off. That cat sure can go fast on 3 legs!

Well I guess I need to fix me something to eat.

today so far

I worked yesterday on getting the living room ready to put the tree in here. Actually what I did was work on a place to put the loveseat in my bedroom so I would have a place to put the tree! I am hoping that the treee will be put up on Sunday.

Brook went to spend the night at a friend's house last night. They are going to Alabama to watch a parade today. I have a feeling that it will be rained out. That will disappoint her. She has been looking forward to this all week.

Today will be a slow moving day. The rain has moved in and it is combined with cold. That makes for a back and arthritis hurting day.

My Sunday School class is having their Christmas dinner tonight at the church. It is being catered! I do hope that it is good. I also do hope that Pat makes it home in time. I really do not want to miss it.

That's it for now. I need to eat then get busy. I heard the washer buzz.

Friday 5

 

Once again it is time for The Friday Fivers.

3. Who is the hardest person to shop for on your Christmas list and why do you think they are so hard to buy for?  This year the hardest person is my new son in law. I do not know him well enough yet.
