Wildwood Christmas: Christmas

 

We had our first snowfall on Friday.  Couple inches. 

 

Today is Monday and have more coming down.

Much colder and at the moment 29 degrees.

Did some Christmas shopping Saturday with granddaughter Gv. and had a soup lunch at Hanover Tavern.

Gv had Brunswick stew and I had an 1800th century recipe of cream of mushroom soup.  

Walked around the Tavern for some history.

Saturday night we watched an old movie classic, Bell Book and Candle with Kim Novak and James Stewart.  Love these oldies.  Got through a whole move without a single curse word, one of the reasons I like the oldies like this.   

Dinner later was homemade potato soup with carrots and celery for flavor, and yes, I added ham, regular milk, some heavy cream and butter.  

Today Monday already and more snow.  I went out in it. 

Pulling into driveway, I took a picture in-between windshield wiper blade moving. 

That's all folks

Til next time.

Mom birthday, dinner and started decorations last week

Mom turned 104 November 23rd.  We celebrated at a restaurant with her wanting pizza. 

Still beats me at checkers and loves to play scrabble.   Her jumble word find books are a favorite also. 

Looking good and we are all so blessed to have her.  God has blessed all of us but especially with Mom still able to get around with walker.  

Bingo is fun for her too. 

Two days later at the place Mom stays put on a wonderful Thanksgiving feast. 

Turkey and all the trimmings.  

Green beans just the way I like them.  Little bacon flavor, vinegar, onions.  

My tree in living room is up.  I  am slow this year as my knee bothers me more now and am scheduled for a TKR in January.   Never thought I would say I look forward to it.  It will be robotic assist. Smaller incision, more perfect placement and will come home same day, well that is if everything else looks good.

I will have some type of bicycle brought to home with a screen that monitors my movement on it and will adjust to give me the right stride and work out.  This is new and looks like just the thing for exercising the joint. 

Living room tree.

Wreaths hung in windows.  All 10

I will be adding more decoration updates on my Christmas blog.

I still have shopping to do. 

More later
