" We decided that we would have a soda, my favorite flavor, cherry red, I sung my song to Mr. Jimmy, yeah and he said one word to me " Well the start of the BIG holiday season. It ABSLOTLY has to have a different look than in years past. We are doing it different. I have told the daughters that we will NOT be gathering 'enmasse' for dinner and drinks. It's just not safe. We will find times to have personal visits, just not in groups. And they both agreed 100% with that. We'll do a video chat sometime today and that will be good. Have a nice simple dibber planed. Cornish game hens, mashed potatoes, and corn. It all fits in the no lactose diet and we like it. We had planed to have cherry pie with ice cream (non-dairy, or course!). But found out the cherry pie has non-fat dried milk in it. Which has a higher lactose count than condensed or skim milk. I think the non-fat dried milk is used as a thickening agent for the cherry filling. So the cherry pie went into the freezer, and will be given to one of the daughters at a latter date. Card sales have slowed to about one or two a week. Which is normal for the winter. The new electric fireplace is absolutely VERY COOL!! Does a great job of heating the place, we'll see what the electric bill is in about two weeks. Starting to do some work on the upcoming year for the H.O.A. which is keeping me busy. The weather has been good, some rain, some cold, some sun. The hip is just flat painful, still going through the pre-op stuff. I just hope that voluntary surgeries are not shut down because of the out of control covid right now. CHOW MOI!!
