"Alvin and the Chipmunks, pizza....all that fun you’re having."

Yep ... one big party after another. LOL
Well .... I had another interruption ... story of my life. :)

Direct TV was suppose to be here between 12:00 and 4:00 to install an upgrade.
Servicemen are notoriously late except today.
He called at 10:30 and said he would be here in 10 minutes.
He got here about 11:00.
I wish he would finish so I can come play.

Marissa goes back to school next Monday. Three weeks Christmas vacation is too much!!

I wish they would give these 5 days at a later time.

I agree that PrissyMissy must have antifreeze. I usually wake at about 3:00. I check her and always turn off the fan and put a blanket on her. Most of the time, she kicks the blanket off before I get out of her room.

I’ve also been scarce but not because of a special project. It seems that there are several interruptions every day. I’m hoping that things calm down eventually.

Hope you find a great house in the country. There are advantages and disadvantages to country living. I love the open space but .... I hate getting a house full of dust with every little breeze. I also hate having to rely on a satellite dish or ATT for my internet service. Marissa would love to live in a “neighborhood”.

Oh my goodness do I agree with you about the 5 day Christmas vacation Amy! LOL
Kobe goes back Monday and it isn’t a day too soon for him or me!

And as far as kicking off the blankets he is identical to Marissa!

OK -the gig is up........... ‘tiapam’ is my best friend. She had serious back surgery some time back, and I am helping her recover, here at my house. (We’ve been best friends for almost two decades - she was my maid of honor at my wedding, to my late husband.)

She got her first computer last month, and is just learning how to use it - so patience would be much appreciated. She LOVES Amy’s place - and finds it a nice place to come to get away from the ‘nasty’ news that is flooding our cable every day, lately.

So, thank you for your kindness to her, Polly! ((((HUGS))))

Oh My goodness ...... why didn’t you tell me who you are sooner?

Ever once in awhile, Marissa, asks about D O G? She will never forget your little guy.

How are you doing?

Conor, I just listened to your ‘Taps’. It brought back memories of my husband’s memorial, here. As I carried his ashes down the hill, the CD was played - and echoed through the Red Rocks:
