I hope I'm not parroting the same thing fw is going through - one good day, one bad day. The goal is to stay healthy enough for Christmas which is only 6 days away. I don't want to make this the 4th Christmas in a row that I was too sick to attend our cousin's Christmas eve party. At the b-day party we went to the other day one of the cousin's asked me if my husband and I came to the party together. I said, "Oh, you really did think we had gotten a divorce" - lol. That's the joke my hubby kept saying they'd believe if I continued missing these Christmas parties....

Are you sharing your Christmas holiday with anyone or just a quiet day with your spouse? If I remember correctly one spouse is working. I'm working Christmas eve day but they're closing the store at 2pm so it shouldn't affect any of our plans. Well, whatever you do that day I hope it is merry and bright and joyful.

What a great, uplifting story for the holidays – better than a Hallmark movie. I love that your son cried at the thought of disappointing his daughter, that you cried with joy at finding that special present for your granddaughter, that your D-I-L is thought of as a daughter, and that Mrs. N had such great news.

I feel nothing, if not overjoyed for you and your family.

Yep.. Mrs. K is working. I ordered a standing rib roast which I'll pick up from the butcher on Monday.

It seems to have become a tradition that I cook a roast for Christmas. I think I'll skip the Yorkshire pudding this year. My results at the attempt last year were NOTHING but a failure.. lol

Got a couple of minutes? I hope so. I have a lot to cover. Yesterday we get a call from our oldest son and this man never cried since he was a boy. He was upset, to say the least, I couldn't even understand him, he doesn't drink or any monkey business. His Mom, My Wife took the phone. They have everything organized but the main gift for our youngest Granddaughter is lost and could we import one to Jerkey Jersey for them. Now, The hunt is on. The Mission is to find a Unicorn that a 4-year-old can drive around. Well, we finally found one at the Walmart on Wedgewood Lane and I started crying like a little Sissy Mary Once we had this monstrosity Present in the car. Today we started getting messages that we saved Christmas from out Daughter in law. (Daughter)

The other is that some terrible blood report information for Mrs. Nuck turned out to be a GIGANTIC mistake. The mistake operation said everything is fixed, I removed the info from her portal. Maybe time for Rabinowitz, Rabinowitz, and Rabinowitz. LOL Thank God the news was great that's what counts. Two Christmas Miracles. We are so happy & relieved. Merry Christmas to you all, we should be back on New Years Eve Day, weather permitting.

And I'm not even going to mention your lack of NOTHING - well I just did so I could get my NOTHING in, but let's just say if K proceeds with a violation, I'm gonna have some words with him. :boxing2:

Now you can really celebrate the holidays - big time! Safe travels, I'll try to keep the roads clear for ya. :icon_wink:

It was NOTHING but humbling to hear this Teamster tough guy shed a tear for his daughter. He's been in tougher life situation's and never NOTHING, like a brick wall, zero emotion, he even told me he Loved Me. Now I'm Blubbering.

This is the same son who gave us a hard time about moving to this beautiful place. It Truly really is an Early Christmas Miracle. What a rollercoaster life is. Best to hold on, have faith and just see that the ride ends a long time from now.
