So Will He or Won't He?

Monday morning up early and still not dressed, no jelly made since I have not gone out as of yet to get the sugar I need to make it.... the dishes are finally put away from yesterday... thank God for dishwashers, the Christmas Cards for mom is almost all addressed except for THOSE who have NOT sent me Their address... And you know who you are he he.... I also printed out mom's pill calendar and dad's blood pressure sheets... and are now tucked away until I bring them up to them... now the thing is for me to remember where I tucked them away... actually I have a special envelope for all my stuff that I work on this time of the year...


Everyone that will get a card from mom and dad will have my DNA on it... since silly me picked up the address labels that you actually have to lick... think did you even think there are some of those around still... but thinking about it they were the only Christmas ones they had....


This morning gave us the news that Carl may be leaving for out west as early as next Monday... for several months... ask me what I think... I just believe if the man has to go to work then let him go... why should I make him stay behind because I am not all that great on the idea... at the moment I told him to go... this is what he needs to do... I am behind him all the way... will I be thinking on this line in a few months I have no idea... I am one of the lucky ones... I still have my family close by it is not like I am totally alone here.... and there is the phone and emails... and when he comes home we will be together... will I miss him... of course I will... who is going to put up the Christmas lights... who am I going to take pictures of transplanting.... blowing the yard listening to him get mad because the handles of the blower let go again....who is going to get up when I don't want to put the dogs out... lol.... just teasing Carl... I will be okay.... have to pick on you some time you know....

We went over to see mom and dad, Pat, Roger and Flo last night after being a few days away... of course I had to get my teasing in on mom since I was not around to do it but I think Pat took up my part while I was not there... he he... it is always nice to go away no matter how long it is but it always nice to come back home...

This morning when I when over to do the pills dad showed me a card he received in the mail today from my cousins Lily and Gabe... he was so please to have received it... and from me welcome to my blog .. thanks Jeff for passing it on... and if you are blogging would love to read yours as well...

This afternoon the sun was shining and I knew I should have been outside working in the gardens but there was crab apple juice that was calling to me made into jelly so that was what I did... two batches and hoping it will last the winter... well it will if I don't give out too much of it to others... with no cook books in the house any more because I gave up on the baking, preserving thing I had to go on line to find a recipe for the jelly... and no I don't want any in the house it would only make me bake and then I would have to eat it LOL.... even for Christmas baking, when I do it that is, I always have to run up to mom's for the recipes...

have a wonderful day
