Gone Shopping

Hope all is well with you and you are keeping warm and safe. Getting closer and closer to the Big Day - and I still have lots to do like I'm sure all of you do too.

Grocery shopping one more time, wrapping gifts, making goodies, not to mention all the usual things like meals, laundry and housecleaning to do yet.

We still have lots snow in our yard and the snow hasn't melted much in our backyard where it's shady. First time I can remember snow staying around so long here in the desert southwest. Bob and I went to the Veteran's Cemetery in Boulder City this afternoon to put Christmas flowers at Brian's grave. Last Sunday the Gold Star Mother's of our area put a beautiful Christmas Wreaths on his grave. It is through the organization of Wreaths Across America that this is done annually all over at the same time in memorial of our heroes. We are honored. The wreath was there and an extra ornament which I know was left there by a dear person, Linda, who volunteers for both the Blue Star Moms and Gold Star Mothers. She is a very devoted person to helping her neighbor. Her mother is very ill right now, but she did make time to do this special task for the veterans last week.

I will be taking some time off from bloggin for a couple of days. My good wishes and prayers go with you. Do take good care. May the good Lord bless and keep you. Merry Christmas!
