Random December

Random photos from December 2021 that won't make it any other posts...

Soooo... I wanted to do something nice for all our wonderful delivery folks.
It was several days before I saw that I asked them to help 'your elves'
instead of 'yourselves'.  sigh...  Yet, very punny for this time of year, I know.  
(and yes... I corrected it)  :D 

Marley and his sweet 'hospice kitty'...  (remember... this is the dog who, in his younger years, acted like he wanted to EAT cats.)  :D

Incredible!  Julie just picked these tomatoes from her garden!!
Fresh garden tomatoes in December - in MISSOURI!

Marvin and I drove down to renew my DEERS card... I remember when the boys were little they loved coming here and seeing all this.  Time goes by so fast...

Daddy enjoyed breakfast with Maria

Marley and 'hospice kitty' in the Dogloo.  :)

got some nice covers for the patio furniture so we don't have to store it all away in the barn 

Rojina sent Daddy this sweet photo of Aasha Lee

getting there...

the fellas were replacing the handle on that door for me

Burning leaves in the lot and it kind of took off... but they got it under control quickly.  
Leaves always put off a ton of scary looking smoke.

at Daddy's house 

Love this photo from dear Jennifer - celebrating her birthday with her parents.
Three of my favorite people in the world right here!

So Marvin and I have been exploring the world of Columbia food options with all the doctors visits lately.  Last time we were so wanting a milkshake to celebrate good news so stopped at Sonic.  It was packed and we were excited to have our shakes.  We both took one drink and looked at each other... they were disgusting!  I don't know what Sonic is doing with shakes now, but they do not taste like milk and/or ice cream at all!  We threw them in the trash.  So disappointing. So this visit we were determined to get good milkshakes.  We stopped at Five Guys and enjoyed their super tasty burgers and YUMMY milk shakes!  Thank goodness!!  :D 

As I was coming home from Walmart I just had a desire to drive by Mama’s headstone.  I see what Daddy means - sometimes it is just nice to see her name.  I had to smile when I was thinking about the wonderful 'coincidence' with Nobles and it occurred to me that they are again on a gravel road east of town.  :) 

once again on a gravel road east of town...
