MERRY CHRISTMAS

Hello, and MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!

I know, I'm a little late, but like most people I was busy on Thursday celebrating! I had a great Christmas and of course, great food. We celebrated at my Mom's and everyone brought something to eat with the ham my Mom made. I got some much needed good work pants and some cool t-shirts. I also got a really cute koala stuffed animal. One of the t-shirts of my favorite football team, the NY Giants, when they won the SuperBowl this year. The other one is a tie-dye t-shirt with the Syracuse University emblem on it. It looks really cool. Everyone got some really cool gifts, but, I can't remember them!

It has started to warm up again, and almost all of the snow that we got last week is gone! It was in the 40's today. At least it was a white Christmas...


I hope everyone has a safe and Happy New Year.

Blackie pics

I thought I would share some pics of my kitty, Blackie. He is so cute and he is all black except for a little white area on his tummy... He is eight months old and is getting bigger by the minute. He loves laying on my left shoulder when I'm sitting on the couch. Sometimes we both fall asleep like that and get up all stiff.

Big Snow!!!

We got some big snow today!! Yipee!! I mean that in a less than happy way... Yes, we got out predicted snowfall today and it came before they said it would! Almost all of the local schools were either cancelled or got out early before it would have hit us. I only got home about 15 minutes later than I normally do. I take the bus to work and it ran rather smoothly today despite the snow.

Well, it was inevitable, but SU finally lost a game. It was on a buzzer beater, right as time expired the player for Cleveland State, shot the ball from past midcourt and it went in! We had just tied the score with about 2 seconds left, so they really had no time to set up a play, except what did happen. Oh, well, we came back 2 days later and beat Canisius by 20 pts. Go figure!!

Christmas is coming up of course, and we as a family celebrate it at my Mother's. We do it on Christmas eve and then she and I go to midnight mass. I've got my presents all I have to do is wrap them. I finally put my tree up and it looks so cute. Now, all I have to do is keep the cat from knocking it over... He goes up to and sniffs at it, and tries to play with some of the balls I have on it, and then just walks away. He did scare me, though, when he almost did knock it over. Every night I go to bed thinking I'm going to find it toppled over when I wake up.

Well, have a great holiday and a Happy New Year!!

See ya...

SU is undefeated!

SU is undefeated and ranked no. 16 in one of the polls.... They have been playing very well all season, and have a knack for coming from behind.

Well, the weather looks like winter, now. It snowed a couple of days ago and we got about 5-7 inches of snow. It looks like a winter wonderland outside. I finally put up my Christmas tree today, and it looks so cute! I'm afraid my cat, Blackie, might knock it over one of these days, but, so far he hasn't really noticed its there. I tried to take a picture of it and it doesn't look good on the digital camera. I'll have to play with the adjustments on the camera to see if I can get a better picture.

My hearing aids are working out very well! I am still adjusting to them, but, for the most part, they are great.... I still have to take them out to hear on the phone, as the microphone part of the aid is on the back of the ear, I can't quite hear on the phone with them in. I have the phone volume on high so I can hear.

Well, that's all for now. See ya.
