Happy New Year - 2011


It's 8:25 P.M. on New Years Eve. A few more hrs. and this year will be over. Wasn't a very good year. To tell you, the last few years ain't been very good for me. Don't get me wrong, I guess it could have been a lot wores....but again, it could have been a lot better. O'well, I guess you take what's giving to you and do the best with it you can. I say this every New Years Eve, O'well, I'll say it again....I hope this is a GREAT year.

Happy New Year!!

Merry Christmas


It sure didn't seem much like Christmas for me this year. I went over to moms yesterday evening and ate Christmas dinner with her. We exchanged presents also. It was calling to get bad today, so we didn't take a chance and went on and did Christmas. The snow held off. It snowed a little this morning, but now it's snowing real good outside.

James said he had a good Christmas eve and Christmas day. I'm glad he had a good Christmas out there in Iowa! He said he liked eveything I sent him, and he said he got a lot of good stuff out there. I sure do miss him being here, but I'm glad that he is happy!

I got a new cell phone and a watch and a few other things. The cat got some new toys. :)

Well, one more week until the new year. I hope it's a better year. I seem to say that every year. O'well, I can always hope!
Merry Christmas!

Keep Christ in Christmas!


It's three days until Christmas. I've been trying, but don't think I'm going to get into the Christmas spirit too much this year. It's just hard after having James with me for the past 15 Christmas's, to get used to it by myself this year. I would put up the big tree and put Christmas decorations and lights all over the place....even outside. Then I would make sure he had LOTS of presents under the tree Christmas morning. We would always make Christmas cookies on Christmas Eve....and go look at Christmas lights. Just a lot of little things we did together at Christmas time.

I really do hope James has a GREAT Christmas in Iowa this year. Like I have always said, I want James happy, no matter if it's here in Virginia, or out there in Iowa!

Ever since James got on the train three weeks ago to go to Iowa, it has been COLD here in Virginia....and even snowy. Now they say we ''may'' get snow on Christmas day. I hope it don't get bad, at least until later Christmas night.

One thing I hate, that I have seen more of this year, is that a lot of places and people are saying ''Happy Holidays'' Instead of ''MERRY CHRISTMAS''. This Country ( USA) is trying to get rid of GOD all together. Well, it's not going to work! Don't tell me ''Happy Holidays''....tell me ''Merry Christmas'' or don't say anything!
Merry Christmas!

Starting to look and feel alot like Christmas


James has been in Iowa for a week now. I talk to him every day, either on the cell phone or Facebook. I'm sure things are a big change for him out there. He won't be as spoilt out there as he has been here, that's for sure. He's had it made here all his life.

Well, Christmas is a little over two weeks. Still not really much into the Holiday Spirit, and more then likely I won't be this year. I did put a few Christmas decorations and lights up. I got James some presents. Going to box them up and send them out there to him in a day or two.

It's been cold the last week and we even got a little snow the other night. I wounder if that's a sign of another bad Winter. We really had a bad one last year. It sure is looking and feeling like it.

Well, James is in Iowa now. He got on the train Wed. at 4:05 P.M. , (it was an hr. late). He got to Iowa last night (Thur.) at 6:30 P.M. Seems some-what lonely and quiet here. It's just me and the cat.

I hope James is happy out there and stays safe. I told him if and when he wants to come back, he will ALWAYS have a home here with me....and the cat.

I'm just not in the Christmas spirit this year at all. I did put up some Christmas lights yesterday....I guess that's a start.
