It's December, y'all. Not that one can really tell by the weather. I haven't posted in a couple of months.
Such an eventful year as well, which I am well ready to leave behind.
Since my last blog post...
My Daughter-in-love, Paula, lost her Mom to cancer.
Tom's brother Bob has come to reside on our property. We helped him move, starting to settle on the 1st of November.
We spent Thanksgiving at Becky and Ben's houses. My mom, Ben, Kimber and I, Dakota, and Althea had birthdays. (As well as several siblings and friends).
I got to do some 'dives' in Ben and Paula's hyperbaric chamber.
Dan left this morning after visiting us for several days.
This weekend, I get to fly to Texas to see Chris. I haven't seen him since before CV19 started. It will be a really quick trip down- some Mom and Me time. As I will only be gone over the weekend, Nickole can stay home with Umpaw and Sam.
Nickole is working hard on school. With so much going on, there are some days we don't get in as much 'book learning', but she's really progressing in life skills. I think she may get to plan & prepare supper Friday evening. (The plan ahead will be this afternoon. Thursday we have AHG and can get anything she needs to make a good meal.)
Speaking
of AHG, (American Heritage Girls), Nickole will be receiving several
badges she's earned this fall, on the 9th. She's really enjoying getting
to be part of a troop. She's adding "Cooking", "Archery", and
"Astronomy" to her badges, and will receive a few patches as well.
Upcoming, we have more birthdays ... Chris, Becky, Katie, Tom (more friends and relatives!)
Daniel is planning a cross country bicycle ride.
Ruby has an interview to get moved to Dallas! We expect her by February.
After Ruby arrives, I think the next 'event' on the calendar is the DC Memorial event in May, where Stephen's name will be added to the Fallen LEO Wall.
No new babies are being added to the schedule, as of yet.
