I suppose I should have been expecting it; Will caught it first, but as Christmas approached, I could feel it coming. I took Vitamin C and zinc, ate plenty of hot peppers, but it still caught me. I didn’t even bake Christmas cookies until Christmas Eve! It was depressing since I usually bake for several days before Christmas. But I got ‘er done. Luckily, David decided to host our family Christmas dinner at his house. I helped out by bringing green bean casserole, providing the pickles, and a cheesecake. And I came early to show him how to do the ham. Then I went to pick up Javid at Orr. We had a real good time visiting, opening presents, and EATING.<\/p>\n

Will was in the middle of his cold and fell asleep on the couch after dinner. It was cute with granddaughter, Ava, asleep on the other couch!<\/p>\n

Javid will be moving to Cook next week, as there’s an opening for him at the assisted living there. That’ll be much better for all of us as it’ll be easier to visit, pick him up to come home and for him to buzz about town where there’s much more to do than in Orr. Now if I can just shake this nasty cold! I had my flu shot and pneumonia shot but it was a cold that got me down.<\/p>\n

Our new fridge is running great and now it’s up against the wall so I’m starting to fill it up. What a great addition that is! Our old Consul is cooling but not normally. The inside fridge temp. is about 50 degrees and the freezer about 20 degrees. Will’s still trying to figure that one out. But he’s not recovered from his cold yet so it may be a while. I don’t care. The new fridge is more than twice as big as the Consul so I sure am not whining.<\/p>\n

I’ve still got turkey to can (frozen now) but my giddi-up has gone away for now. Soon though\u2026 — Jackie<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
