Sunday Evening

I went to church with my son today.  They rent space from a local theater, so when you go there to church, you have the smell of popcorn when you walk in the building.  Anyway, it was a great service. And it was good to see all his friends again.

After church, my son came here for awhile and then left to go be with his girl friend and her family this afternoon.  I spent the afternoon getting things together for tomorrows' Christmas dinner with my family.  We have it at the clubhouse here where I  live, because it's difficult for my daughter to get into my place in her wheel chair.  And by having it in the clubhouse, we can have more people.  I just need to gather everything together to take up there.  There is a full kitchen so I do all my cooking right there.  In a way it's a lot of work but also it saves me the mess at my place.  I use the red Solo plastic plates and just throw them away.  All I have to wash is the silverware, serving dishes and the pans I use for cooking. And that's done up there and then I pack everything up and bring it back home and put it away.

Tonight Bob came by and we went up the street to the movie house and saw "The Lion, The Witch & The Wardrobe."  The special effects of this movie are truly remarkable.   It was very good and I recommend it to all. I ate too much popcorn, however...ugh !!

We got a call from his California grandkids.  They liked their embroidered fleece throws too.  I guess I did good. 

Well, Monday is Boxing Day in Canada and the U.K.  And the beginning of Kwanzaa here in the US. And it's another big shopping day, probably everywhere.  Christmas cards & wrap 50% off, etc.

I have to call around and find a printer.  I understand they have printers now that you can either plug your digital camera into or put your memory card in and print out pictures that way.   I think that's what I'm going to be looking for.  There are several in the sales papers that came out today from $80 to $100.  So hopefully I won't have to spend too much. 

I trust everyone had a happy Cristmas and a good sleep tonight, now that Santa has come and gone.  

Until next time.....Linda

Oh my gosh, I just realized it's only 10 more days until my birthday. Another year older, oh no !!

I saw The Lion The Witch and The Waedrobe a couple of weeks ago, it was wonderful, I loved it!! I have a printer which I can plug my camera and memory card into, so hassle free. I hope you have a great time at the clubhouse, glad the kids like their fleeces. Jeannette.
