Hi Colleen
Has anyone heard from DD? I hope she’s ok
Today I got all Gary’s clothes out if the bureau. I already got rid of socks snd undies. I put aside a couple of things for the grands that were special. His Christmas sweater, for one. When JJ gets home, he’ll help me with the closet. Bobby is taking everything to Salvation Army for me. I like to donate to them. They do a lot of good work. Then I will start on the office next week.
I am getting the crystal balls out tomorrow to hang on the lights. The trees are coming tomorrow from Amazon
I have been getting stuff for the kids I also hit all the gift certificates from Amazon. I hit so many, they called me to see if the charge was real! Lol
Have a good day!
Adele

Hi Colleen
I ordered 3 3 foot lit trees battery operated from Amazon. They are on timers. I’m putting 2 on the dining room table and one in the kitchen or living room. That should at least add some lights to the house
Not only do I miss Gary, but Frankie was my assistant decorator. He got the stuff down from the attic, fired them up, and placed them outside for me.
I’m going to get out the crystal balls I put on the lights in all the rooms over the weekend. Bobby said he’d put them up on the lights I can’t reach
I hope it will work out. Ho. Ho. Ho
Hope you have a good day
Adele

Hey Colleen
I can understand her wanting to wait. But, thst was a very long time
I bound not bury Gary’s ashes. I thought his ashes would comfort me here in the house. They do not.
I know how your SIL feels. Empty That’s how I feel. It will pass. I hope. I still can’t believe he is gone.
I hope your day is going well
Adele

Dearest Colleen
I am so sorry about your brother. I didn’t remember hearing about his passing. Please forgive me. I would never have ignored his passing. How are you doing with him being gone? It’s awful to loose a sibling. We expect to bury our parents. We don’t expect to bury people our ages. So sorry
Luv u
Adele

Hey Gailster
We had 13 people all together Everyone cooked and all I do was open the cranberry sauces. All went well. I’ll attach a pic of the chickens Amanda made attached so you can see
A few of us played Scrabble. A few played cConnect 4.
I only briefly broke down twice. Once when I’ll be Home for Christmas came on the radio and when Jen (Bobs x) came to visit. I enjoyed seeing her, but all the memories flooded back….. good ones.
This evening JJ is trying out for the basketball team. He feels he is not good enough, but is going I hope he makes it. It will be so good for him. Say a prayer please!!
I have no decorations out. I don’t know what I’m going to do. I’m undecided. I honestly feel it’s not worth the effort this year. I have so much to go through of Gary’s belongings, I feel that is what I should concentrate on. I want the house back together. I know that sounds awful, snd not me at all. But when Bob said he has no intention of decorating outside or getting the stuff out if the attic, it just took the tiny bit of holiday spirit right out of me. Trust me, it did not take a lit to remove it. Then add that Frankie and Gary did the outside for me, and they are not available kind of sealed my fate
It is what it is, as I say
So glad you are decorating!! Thrilled to hear how well your holiday went. Such nice news to hear snd that Brent and family had a great time too. I love good news
Aldo attaching flowers Jhonny gave me. Very pretty!
Luv Adele
