Merry Christmas , my ATRW friends....

After a night of thinking I was not in control, I find that this morning, I do have control.

Turkey..stuffed in oven..veggies in cold water...and soon I'll be making the cabbage salad.

Why I worry... I have no idea.

Sarah went overboard on us this year....really! Arriving this Thursday is a radiant, self-cleaning, freestanding range ..plus she gave us $$$.00 Home Depot gift cards to finish the basement...with instruction to her dad..no new tools....just construction material, LOL

Good Morning lysie. What an incredibly generous daughter you have!

It sounds like you're totally in control. I need to head back to the kitchen. Mom and Stepdad will be here around 11:00. I need to leave a few tasks for Mom to do. She needs to feel like I couldn't do it without her!

Have a Blessed and Merry Day!

I just got a call from younger daughter. They forgot about making gravy, and have no clue. If that's all I have to worry about, it's going to be a great day.

At some point during the night, I guess I was warm, so I turned off the heaters. There is a glaze of ice over my water glass near the bed. I'm huddled in the artic sleeping bag with two confused, but purring, kittens until it gets warm enough for me to face the house.

Wow, fooled Santa THIS year, he layed it on me.

Will talk to you in the A.M. dinner ready and I will be worse off that that stuffed turkey when we get thru.
