Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all.

Club Sheba Holiday Edition

@sheba2011

Merry Christmas to you, husband and Poppy. Hope your day went well. I am feeling okay, not any worse. My husband has been up and down. We did not go to mom’s yesterday so she prepared takeout from her house. We got about 5″ of snow overnight with a little ice underneath but our roads are good. If hubby doesn’t feel better tomorrow, I may have to ask one of my neighbors for help clearing my 100 foot driveway of the snow. Need to be able to get in and out and no temps above freezing until Sunday. Have a warm Christmas evening by the fire.🎄🔥

Good Afternoon. I am sitting at the computer and freezing. The heat is on, but there is definitely a draft under my feet. I picked up a lap blanket at Costco’s two weeks ago and I am now using it. This thing is huge and would easily blanket a full sized bed. It will do while I go through boxes of papers to sort while I am looking for one item in particular. I remember boxing it, but no can find. I also know that it wasn’t discarded since both of us go through the boxes before breaking them apart for recycle.

The sun is out in Florida and there are many low hanging clouds. Temp is a cool 51 and will hit 60 maybe. Tonight will be in the low 40s and yes, I will be covering some of our outdoor plants.

Even though we do not celebrate Christmas, it is still a Holiday I cherish. Maybe it’s because people talk to one another at this time. Or maybe it’s the warmth one feels during this season. Or maybe it’s the smile from a total stranger. Or still it could be because it’s the season for giving and receiving. Whatever the reason I often ponder why we cannot bring this joviality to everyone all year long. I remarked to my hubby last night that this pandemic thing made me realize that we don’t have to go anywhere to be together. Home is definitely where the heart is, whether it’s Florida or New England. And, what is even more remarkable, I’m not bored. There is always something new to see from our den window and plenty of work to do inside. Guess when you start thinking about it, the pandemic has brought more of us together. At least that’s one of it’s brighter sides.

Looks like whatever is wrong with my computer has wrought some wrongs onto yours’ and Loaf’s. I could be typing away and all of a sudden the cable and wireless goes out for no reason. Or, I crash for no reason. That was why I bought another computer, which will be returned soon. I will be ordering another which just has a smaller monitor, but is not only has a better processor, but good customer service and is five stars across the board. Should have waited for reviews on the one I purchased. There are quite a few now with nothing above a two star. Yes, customer reviews do help. Patience is supposedly a sign of virtue. I guess I lost mine somewhere.

The doggie gifs are amazing. I wouldn’t mind enjoying their company every day of the week. Even kitties. Yes, I will see you in Trivia tonight. Just not sure if there is a game tonight and if not, so be it. We could actually have our own game of fun. And if there is a game, maybe do our own thing in between the wait time.

Have a great day, both of you along with the entire family. I bet Bella is enjoying it also. Wonder if you will see her during face time. See you soon.
