I had the best Christmas ever. We had approx. 25-30 people half were kids. Food to literally feed an army with enough left overs for everyone. There were @ 15 kiddos (8 being my grandkids) & this year they all scored big on presents. I have grandkids spend the nights/wknds. w/ me all the time so we planned times with Grammy in groups to come for kids vaca time. Played the funest games ever saran wrap ball & $3.00 game. Our family had so much fun together & are so loud it's a blast. It hasn't always been like that of course because we've all had times in our pasts that was destructive. So this was the 1st Christmas that everybody was together under 1 roof. I have been praying for this for a very long time....for years! God definately answered prayers for sure!!! That's why this Christmas was the best ever! I hope everyone was blessed in some way & enjoyed the company they were with. Because the true meaning of Christmas is Christ 1st & foremost & family... loved ones. I pray that God blesses everyone in whatever way they need. Merry Christmas!❤🙏👼🎅
@saundrasbeadery8 That is so beautiful, my friend. I absolutely felt the warmth reading this.... I love this for you so much! I hope next year is just as beautiful! I love that your "Grammy"...I want to be "Grammy" too when the time comes. I can't wait for grandbabies!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Colleen my friend, what a gorgeous 4 piece set of Christmas Jewelry! Love it! I love the story of your husband surprising you with putting the tree up! We had a great Xmas, the grandkids had a blast. I’m so sick with the upper respiratory yuk, no voice. Anyway enjoy New years oh and yes, Eat that ham! Lol. Save me a piece of cheese cake, sounds delish! Ttys. 🥰💕
Merry Christmas, Coll!!! I went to my daughter and son-in-law's house. All four of my grandkids were there, three of them had partners there, all 3 & a half of my great-grandkiddos were there, one of the partners' little girl was also there, and my younger sister and business partner was there, too. We had a big dinner, some snackies, & lots of desserts, some alcoholic drinks, and lots and lots of presents passed around. It was a really good day. I was so glad to see you had posted a new video for tonight's wind-down. Thank You.
Mike has been sneezing a lot lately. Is he allergic to something, sick, or just having a tough time with the dry winter air? I always worry about the fur babies. My sweet little kitty girl, Shadow, just got over having fleas. It took me the longest time to get rid of them this time. I thought it was too cold for fleas to survive. Our temperatures had been down in the teens for the first two weeks of this month. She is an indoor kitty baby, but when the weather warmed up in late October/early November I had the windows open and a stray kitty in the neighborhood was up in the window sill outside rubbing up against the screens and Shadow was up there on the inside of the window rubbing on the screens and the next day she started scratching. I don't use chemicals on her because my first kitty boy, Tabby, was allergic to them. I use essential oils and vacuum the carpets, furniture, and screens a lot. Apparently, this was a hardy group of fleas, and they resisted my efforts for a while. I think I have won the battle though. I always feel so bad for her when the fleas come a calling. This is the third time in three years that we've had them. Hopefully, this is the last time we have to deal with them. Anyway...Bless you Mike!
@reginam7370 We had a bad summer with fleas here and my guys are treated all year, they still cause problems. They are the absolute worst! Unfortunately all of my cats are FHV positive. Mike was part of a colony before he went into "the system " and it's very common in colony situations. My cat Princess, who is Bobo and company's mother, also tested positive before we brought her in... since Mike is already positive there wasn't much concern. The kittens have it from their mother. We almost lost Bobo and Gemma at 4 weeks because they were so sick. There is medication to help with the FHV flares but there's no cure...it's basically cat herpes. It causes the sneezing and other respiratory issues when it's flaring. When not in a flare it goes symptomless but Mike is in a flare so that's why all the sneezing ❤️❤️ I feel like I just wrote an essay to vet school lol🤣🤣❤️
