Hi DD,
I’m glad that nothing bad happened when the fire trucks showed up. I wonder what happened.
I like that Snowball found a nice place to sleep on the storage bin. She looks quite comfortable. lol
Those pictures of the baby ducks remind me of Easter.
Does anybody remember when we were kids and some shoe stores would give kids a baby chicken when they went in to buy their Easter shoes or was that a regional thing? We never got any but Greg says he remembers getting them.
How is the rain out your way? I think Northern California is getting bad rains.
Stay safe and well.
Gail

Hi Adele,
Glad that JJ is better.
I think this site is programmed to make us sign in again after a certain amount of time or a certain amount of visits as it has done that for a long time.
Poor Sonny-did he hit his eye on the faucet? I bet Marissa feels so bad.
I’ll bet he’ll have forgotten all about it before his Mom does.
I’m glad that your birthday turned out happier than you expected. Your chocolate cake sounds good. Did you put candles on it?
Now with covid we can’t even blow out candles anymore. I saw someone invented something to protect the cake. necessity rally is the mother of invention.
lol

Colleen,
That was nice that Melissa got to go out with her sisters. She is lucky to have them around for support and of course you and Ron too-but sometimes you might talk about things with your siblings that you wouldn’t talk about with your parents.
Poor little Grayson-those teeth coming in always hurt and there’s no explaining it to a little one.
Piper had to have two teeth pulled because they were decayed and it was so odd because her last check up they were totally fine. Good thing they are baby teeth.
That Aliza is so funny-she really knows how to drag the bedtime ritual out. The funny thing is she probably thinks she’s fooling you not realizing you are just being an indulgent grandparent. lol

Hi DD,
I hope your computer is doing better. Sometimes I think the internet providers get clogged up with so many doing work and school from home.
If I missed your birthday Happy Belated birthday. I always forget to look at the birthday page.
Those edible arrangements are pretty.
How is Snowball doing with the furniture rearranging? Does she approve? lol

Hey Sue,
I have cut regular lasagna into smaller pieces and frozen it so I don’t see why you couldn’t do it with the spinach lasagna.
I’m sorry that you never had a birthday party growing up. Did you get to go to other children’s parties?
Of course when I was a kid the parties weren’t as elaborate as they are today for some kids.
How is your weather. We had snow and are expecting more and now the pick up truck isn’t working for some reason so Greg has to call the Chevy place tomorrow.

Here’s Greg with the Christmas present he bought himself. Men are just little boys in grown up suits.

Hi Adele.
I posted earlier but my internet conked out just as it was going through so it never posted.
I really like these last two stockings. I like the pictures on them.
Is the glass case a zip around too?
I get these emails from this Broadway blog thing and I see Josh Groban is streaming a live concert on Valentine’s Day so I think I am going to order it as he is one of my favorite singers and I know I won’t be going out to dinner that night. lol I wonder when the next time will be that I actually go into a restaurant. anyway, I saw Josh originally on Ally MacBeal many years ago-he must have been quite young and I knew he was going to be a star.
We have been watching some of those new quiz shows and enjoying them. Especially the one with the old Jeopardy champions-they are so smart.
Jenny said Piper got her two teeth pulled that she had to have done and Lachlan went snow boarding and hurt himself so he is limping around. So I told her she probably just earned her first gray hair. lol
We had sun for two days and now the next couple of days it’s supposed to get pretty cold. I can’t really complain though as so far winter has been relatively mild.

Hi Adele,
I hope that your weather is okay. We had very light flurries all throughout the weekend. Nothing bad at all.
I’m sorry the shoulder is hurting again.
How did the needlepoint go? It sounds like you are making stockings for the whole family. You also finish your projects very quickly. I have many started projects but few finished ones. lol The easiest ones were a few years back when those thin fuzzy knitted scarves were popular. I did finish several of those because they knitted up so quickly. I think since I am older I have trouble with concentration. lol At least that’s my excuse.
Saturday was Kendall’s 13th birthday. I can’t believe that she is a teenager. Her Mom took her shopping as she hadn’t had a chance to spend her Christmas gift cards yet. We stopped over for five minutes yesterday to drop off her gift. So we got to see everyone for a few minutes. I’m starting to see a light at the end of the tunnel and hoping by mid summer we can all visit again-it just depends on how the vaccine roll out goes.
I think things will move in a more positive direction on that front once Biden takes over.
I just pray that everyone stays safe.
Gail
