What's on your list

This list is not for the faint of heat.  This is Goose's list for gifts from her parents.  She has a longer one for Santa.  I asked her how she totaled it up and she said she used a calculator.  Maybe it is a math practice.  Now, I started the Calico Critters with her.  While I may think this is funny, it is a little concerning.  Her parents, my son included, believe in big Christmases.  I don't.  The next picture is a beautiful banner that my friend Genie made and sent to me.  She is just the sweetest person.  The tags are wooden.  She modpodged papers to the front and back.  I love it.

Snow day.  The M and M's came in their jammies.  My sweet tree.  I bought the best lights this year.  They twinkle and look like little stars.  The pink thing on the floor is a blankie for the wee dog.

 

 

We have been having snow and very cold temps.  There is a winter storm coming our way.  That's okay with me.

 

 

 

 

Big brother joining in.  Hope the next picture doesn't freak you out.  It's my normally very skinny ankle.  Yes, my ankles are usually skinny.  The only thing on my body that is.  I stood up a couple days ago and my foot felt frozen and stiff.  Then I noticed the swelling.  I had x-rays and blood work yesterday.  The doctor just called and the x-ray are negative for fractures.  Soft tissue swelling.  I had something similar two months ago.  This time it is more painful.  Lab tests are not back yet.  They are checking for rheumatoid arthritis and gout. 

Pretty, huh.  I need some lotion and a little tan.

Okay, that's it for today.  Not too windy.  I have been enjoying everyone's decorating posts.  Maybe my tree will get some ornaments on it before Christmas.  I think my shopping and decorating stopped before my Mom's surgery and I haven't gotten back to either.  As usual, it will all get done.  No need to stress.  Thank goodness for internet shopping.  I hope you are all hanging in there.  There is still time.  Ho Ho Ho.
