HiColleen
Gary was miserable all weekend. If he spoke or moved , he coughed. He is calling his dr again today. Yesterday was last day on antibiotic. He had to cancel his second shot today cause they said no shot if he is symptomatic
I’m exhausted from not sleeping. I either can’t get to sleep or get woken up from Gary coughing. It will pass. I was hoping it would be better before Easter
Steph did the baskets with me over the weekend. We did 11 baskets. Lol. I put socks in everyone’s baskets each year. I add a few gadgets like new stainless steel measuring cups and spoons. Lol. JJ was hard this year due to his age. Got him a couple of pairs of jogging pants.
The entire dining room table is covered in baskets. Lol
Hope you are all ready too!!
Take a pic of your cake when you make it. Marissa asked me to add one more thing…, her Moms favorite cookie. So I am going to be very busy. 😩🤓🤪

Hey Gailster and everyone
Gary is not much better at all. The coughing won’t stop. The antibiotic is taking the infection away. Not the cough. He is taking a Claritin D snd cough syrup. If he talks or moves he coughs
He looks awful. Very pale. He has no energy at all and is VERY cranky
The kids will be here for Easter. Tillie and Gary should be fully vaccinated. Gary’s second shot is Monday. But if he is still coughing he will not get the shot Monday
Marissa Enzo and the baby had a covid test because of the wedding Enzo went to. They are all negative
I’m making thePizzaghiena, ricotta pie, mini cheesecakes, anise cookies and Marissa requested Heather’s favorite cookie. So I will be busy Thursday to Saturday lol. We’re having a Honeybsked ham with their sides. Plus Bobby wants mashed potatoes
Steph is coming over later, after she and JJ are back from the wake to help me get the baskets together. Lol
Hope your day is good.sun is out up here

Hey Gailster
I am just so exhausted from everyone worrying me to death.
Tillie did get the Maderna. So did Gary
That sounded like such a lovely day with the kids outside The other day when it was nice out, JJclimbed into his favorite tree ( of which he says he respects the tree and would nver hurt it) and read his book I get such a kick out of him No, we have not been told the magical goal for his life I hope I live long enough to find out….LOL
The doctor is giving Gary an antibiotic as it has already turned into bronchitis. I think if it is not gone by next Monday, he may not be able to get his second shot.
Frankie got his first shot this past weekend because he is a smoker.
So, I finally made the tapioca pudding yesterday. It took 1 1/2 hours to make. They said to boil it very slow for one hour until the tapioca softened, then add the egg and vanilla last. I think I boiled it too long as it was very thick. Next time, I will boil it less…LOL Eveyrone liked it, even though it was quite thick I love tapioca pudding.
I loved your sayings for today- made me laugh!
Weather is nice up here, but, we have a sea breeze that is so chilly I shut the kitchen window….LOL
I hope your day goes well……hey….I treated myself with the pretty lace shell and jacket from Isaac. Since I rarely go out, not sure if I should keep it. It is very pretty and the lace does not itch. I got it a ize bigger as lace does not give. Im glad I did, as it fits perfect.

Hi Colleen
It is fun watching the little ones
Tillie is better all the symptoms went away yesterday. Thank God
Gary is sick coughing feeling miserable. He thinks it’s a real bad cold. I’m afraid it’s covid. He has a virtual dr apt today I’m afraid he will end up back in the hospital again
I’m so tired of worrying about everyone that I don’t want to get out of bed today. Lol
The sun is shining. That is good. Enzo is safely back from his cousins wedding and that is good
Hope you have a good day!!

Hey Colleen
Santino dies the same thing. If you talk directly to him he will repeat the word. He says mama ,dada ,bye bye ,oh oh He called JJ but it’s hard to understand that one. He tries to say Aizen but that name is hard to pronounce. lol
It’s so cute when they start to talk. He imitates everything Aizen does. It looks like they will be good buddies
I got the little boys the Hess stuffie cement mixer for their baskets. It lights up and sings and is a night light that shuts off in 15 minutes too. I love those Hess trucks The boys love them
Tillie had her second shot and had a bad reaction. The nurse told me the very elderly people have more reactions. She got a fever with chills, aches all over, and dry heaves. We gave her Alleve and she felt better she still does not feel good today. She ok us all up before 5am yesterday
Gary is also sick. Bad cold. Bobby has a bad cold. H h. Covid test and it was negative. Thank God
Tillie stayed up here all Friday after she had her shot. That was nice for a change
Gary I’d feeling pretty miserable. Between the cold and his recovering kidney he is pretty cranky
The sun is shining up here yahoo
Hope your day is good

Hey everyone
Gary did come home. He slept so much the first day I was getting concerned. He was falling asleep in every chair he was in. Even while eating his soup for dinner that night.
He was better yesterday. He fell asleep watching TV and slept most of the evening again. Then he had trouble falling and staying asleep last night.
He is talking better. He was slurring his words and sounded drunk. The shaking is almost gone. All were caused by the kidney not cleaning his blood. He was a real mess. He is lucky This is the 6th time Melrose-Wakefield Hospital saved his life. Between the kidneys 3times the heart attack. Neck break and food poisoning he is sure to be out of the nine lives of a cat!!
We ended up with all rain yesterday. It never turned to snow. I hope Sue was just as lucky as us!
Glad Gail and Greg got their shot. I had to reschedule mine that was on for tomorrow. Nobody string to take me. Gary is still very weak. Jhonny and Bobby Nate working and Enzo is in Las Vegas for his cousins wedding. His cousins, and older sibs went. His parents and Marissa stayed home. Marissa is nervous about him coming back sick. Please say a prayer he stays safe I can’t figure out how they got away with a wedding right now.
Glad to hear Lachlan got an award. Great job! These kids learn stuff I had in college
JJ was told by his math teacher that he and another child are being recommended for Honors Class in Math for next year. It is f DD o nice to have done good news
The refinance of the house is finally all finished. It took forever because I added Bobby to the loan. I felt since I am getting older he needs to be on it. This way if I die all he does is continue to pay the current mortgage No worries about negotiating a loan to keep a roof over his head. Besides, whet would he get a 2.6 rate? The rates have already climbed to 5.5 again. I am so glad I did the refinance and added him, you have no idea
I hope everyone is good.
Great idea on the wagon Colleen
Glad you got rain Sue
Happy Snowball I’d becoming more affectionate with our DD
Love the pic of Gail snd Greg. Glad they got the shot
Hoping everyone else will get their first shots soon too
Did everyone see Gray’s last night? I cried of course. I’m Jon’s be like the doctor who was rolled up in a ball shortly if the losses up here don’t stop😱God forbid!!
Luv u guys
Adele
