New Year’s Day 2025

I got a lot of things crossed off my list today but I took my time. One thing that I did was drive up to Lowe’s and get a new door knob for the family room – to the garage. I was very excited! HOWEVER — once I got home and took the old one off I couldn’t get the new one on. Bummer. Nate will come up soon and put it on for me – I had to put the old one back, but I couldn’t do that right either. Oh, well.

Yesterday I forgot to post the morning’s sunrise. It was beautiful – a perfect send-off for 2024. I fell asleep about 10:30pm and didn’t wake up for anything until 3am. I never heard a peep out of the neighborhood.

This morning I changed all the calendars – including the Snoopy wooden one – and did the ironing and put all the laundry away. I ran the dishwasher and paid bills. I’m still getting used to my new keyboard. It has a light touch and I keep typing double letters! But I love it!

And just remembering to write/type 2025 is challenge enough! And I would LOVE to find these in a store somewhere…

Let me know if you see them anywhere!

After lunch I made a turkey pot pie from leftover turkey and gravy I had in the freezer (for that exact purpose). I’ll have it later for supper.

A sweet little family from church gave me a planner for Christmas, and I determined that I would try and use it. I intend to keep track of things on the calendar pages, and write down everything I eat in the back ‘notes’ section. That’s not to say I’m WATCHING what I eat :). I’m just writing it down…

This afternoon as I was working I was ‘watching’ both WINDOW WONDERLAND and BILTMORE CHRISTMAS. Now I am watching THE MAGIC STOCKING. I don’t remember watching it before.

I have been on pins and needles all afternoon. Autmn called me from Children’s Hospital. Cameron tripped and fell against his new toy chest and cut his forehead. And you know how heads bleed! Her and Noah were both panicked. He was a real trooper and made a ton of friends with the nurses and doctors. She just called me and everything was fine except he had to get 3 stitches. Poor little guy! Autmn is coming in tomorrow for a while so I’ll get to hug him and snuggle him and give him Mimi kisses and make him better!

He’s happy no matter what!
Temporary bandage.
All stitched up.

Scripture for the day: Genesis 1:1 –

TOMORROW January 2nd is:

55 Miles Per Hour Speed Limit Day; Ancestry Day; Happy Mew Year for Cats Day; National Buffet Day; National Cream Puff Day; National Science Fiction Day; Swiss Cheese Day.

Yesterday’s fake day was National Raisin Day. After today there will be no fake days. TOMORROW: Eat a piece of swiss cheese! God bless —
