Hello Everyone! Can you believe that a week from today is Christmas day? Time has flown by... I am almost done with my shopping... just have to pick up a few more things for Hubby and a few others and I am done... Better be, huh?
I am home today. Sue is out with her husband and Diane is not feeling well. Yesterday, we (Diane, Lamar and Sue and I) all went to eat lunch at one of our favorite restaurants ... and Diane couldn't eat... she said her stomach was just not happy and that she really wasn't hungry... and she still doesn't feel good today so I stayed home today. I went out and got some Mickey D's for lunch and came back home. I have a few things to do but I figured it could wait a bit because I wanted to read some blogs and do some catch-up.... I ate lunch and then set out to read.. And to make it better, I went to the kitchen and got a cup of hot spiced cider that Diane made for our class party on Friday night... and I got the leftovers! Thanks, Diane! And here I am! I like everything about Christmas and I have enjoyed shopping this year and helping with gift baskets at our church and other things.. and we are supposed to go caroling on Thursday night... if I can go.. I have my party on Saturday night and I have to get my house ready. So, I will be busy the rest of the week. I still have to finish my menu and make my shopping list... but to be honest, I pretty much have it in my mind. It will be the last party this year. I enjoy it so much... my family and friends all around.
What I've been up to... On Friday night, we had our class party for church... lots of food and fun.. then on Saturday night, I had my work party. We had the best food.. our boss had it catered.. we had steak, baked potatoes, green beans, corn on the cob, rice and Texas toast. For dessert, our boss got cheesecakes.... turtle, pumpkin and New York style... it was all wonderful...I got a Barnes & Noble gift card and some candles for my gift... I love to go to the bookstore... and I can get Starbucks there, too! Then Sunday night, we had our program/party at church and also had food/goodies there.... and then last night, we had our women's party for church.. the food was wonderful there, too! So, I had 4 parties the last 4 nights.. Whew! I had a good time.. but I'm glad it's time to settle for a bit!
I like going on some of the other blogs and reading about what everyone does for Christmas or seeing pics of their decorations... nice.... one thing is for sure, whatever we all do this holiday, we need to remember what Christmas is all about... the birth of our Saviour, Jesus! Thank you, Lord! for all the blessings you gave me and my family this past year! And please lead us into the New Year! Amen...
Well. I want to go check on some recipes and check on some other bloggers... Have a good day and I'll be back soon.... Hugs to all... Cecil
P.S. I just wanted to let you know that Munchkin (aka Emmy) is doing better.. thank the Lord! she was so sick Friday and I am glad she is doing much better... for those of you who read Diane's blog, please pray for her... she just feels cruddy today.. See you all soon....

Good Evening Cecil,
Thanks for stopping by. I'm sorry your still not feeling well. Are you taking anything for it? You may need to get some Antibiotics for it. I hate to hear that Diane is having stomach issues. I bet she got it from Miss Emmy. I'm glad to know that Miss Emmy is feeling better. I don't like being sick to my stomach. I think that is the worse sickness around. I don't have all of my shopping done. Me and hubby are suppose to go this weekend and buy the girls some more things. Wow, you have been a party girl lately huh? I know there is some good food at all them Christmas Parties. The girls had theirs this past Friday at School. I had to go back and forth to both of their rooms. They didn't have anything fancy, just chips and dips, cookies, and fudge and candy. I enjoyed it tho. They get out tomorrow at 11:45a.m and will be out till January 2, 2008. I don't know if I'm gonna be able to hear all that fussing and arguing for 2 weeks. LOL. I know you are excited about your Party with your Family Saturday night. You will have to take pictures and share it with us. My Parents and Sister are coming to our house on Christmas Eve. Since we can't afford to buy for everyone this year, hubby wanted to stay at home. I am looking forward to it because this will be the first time that I have hosted a Christmas Eve get together. Well, take care my friend and have a great evening. May God Bless You and Yours.
