The big day is almost here.

Christmas is almost here. Christmas trees are cut down, put up and decorated. We have events to go this week. It started with the Knapp Wigilia. Seeing members of Chet's family. Must be at least 125 people in attendance. With David, Joan and the kids coming we have many plans. We have made old friends and some NEW FRIENDS and I don't mean Facebook. The Knapp family has a Chorus now made up of Adults and children. Everyone sang 12 days of Christmas. Today, my husband, Larry has started his 75th year. Cake and ice cream were in order. Now, we wait just like the children for Santa . And we all know he is real by the love in our hearts.

December 13

Well, it happens. My husband turns 74 tomorrow. We do not decorate for Christmas until Larry has his birthday, etc. Oh, its OK to do Christmas shopping but no decorations. Makes snse to me. My daughter and I did her shopping yesterday. Mine is all done. All we have to work on are the menus for our family dinners on Dec. 20 and Dec. 24. By the way, my son, David and his family will be here from Denver. It has been 2 years since I have seen the kids. Dave tells they are taller than Iam. We will see.

Parkinsons Disease

Today we had the opportunity of hearing a lecture on the brain surgery our pastor's
wife went through. This surgery has calmed her down and is not shaking like she used to. With me having Parkinson's, it was most intersting. A clip was shown with Michael J. Fox and his learning how to golf. His walk is similar to me. I hope I never get those symptoms. I don't think my family can handle that.

Here and there.

Thanksgiving has come and has gone. Turkey is finally finished. Starting to think about Christmas. We will be having the family over on 12/20. David should be in town sometime that day. Looking forward to seeing him and Joan and the kids. Doing a lot in the PETTICOAT LADIES SECTION of my life as I am now Booking Agent for the group. Starting piece it all together.

Yeah! I know its Tuesday

Tuesdays around here are craazzzzy. It's the overflow from Monday. Didn't do anything speacial but gee, I'm tired.
This morning I cut out 13 internment gowns for infants. When they are finished, they will go to the Hospital or the nearest funeral. I get a lot of satisfaction doing this. Yesterday I made 2 more chemo caps. Spent time on the computer. It is getting boring, the computer thst is. Have a good and healthy Thanksgiving.

Off we go.

Busy week. Monday I attended a Lia Sophia jewelry party. Had good time. When I came home, discovered the water tank blew. Larry disconnected it and Paul and Jim installed the new one. Doctor's appointments all this week. Went to a benefit dinner for a 29 year old man with a wife and 2 SMALL children. Heis suffering from brain cancer. Food was great. A lot of the people from the church were there. Today I am going to ANOTHER Lia Sophia Party. This time it will be at Jim & Kim. Looking for to seeing everyone.
