Mmmmm roast and potatoes and gravy, that is about as good as it gets in the comfort food department.

Nice that he's taking the time to visit with your Jinx before Christmas Eve comes around. Just found out that our granddaughter who just came home from college in Duluth, has Covid.

Tough times. I think it's best to stay home too... especially after dark. I haven't been out after dark for quite awhile now. When the sun sets my curtains are drawn and I make sure the deadbolts are set and that's it.

Tonight I dipped back into your 2008 blog and love that, too. It's like having a friend over to visit for a cup of coffee. It is getting pretty long and lonesome with this Covid-19 business, but the end seems to be in sight. Thank God. Thanks for being a faithful blogger. In 2008 I started a blog of my own because I decided to live in San Diego after being widowed, and I knew hardly anybody there. It kept me sane and I hoped Minnesota friends might read it and remember me. It is hard to live alone after 49 years with a partner, hard and very lonesome. Now I remarried - his brother!KHhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05717640242596942202noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-16587560547916443462020-12-10T21:33:06.056-06:002020-12-10T21:33:06.056-06:00Your carved Santa would be perfect in my collectio...Your carved Santa would be perfect in my collection. :-)Linda Reederhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07665601809156707572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-48112040461655100342020-12-10T20:40:48.029-06:002020-12-10T20:40:48.029-06:00I love the picture of the lake, the one that is no...I love the picture of the lake, the one that is now a puzzle.<br />That's a very pretty table runner.

Jinx has another guy to talk to so you may not get him to move for awhile! :-) Sorry about more mix-up and hold time. I seem to spend a lot of time in the same things. I have changed our address with our cell phone company 4 times now and lets home they have it right this time. An armed robbery?! Oh my! So much for small towns being safe these days. What's next? No, don't answer that!<br />We're supposed to have snow starting tonight and every day for a week. Daytime temps in the 30's though so maybe a lot will melt away as it falls.<br />Blessings,<br />BetsyBetsyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00807691752817225336noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5456722259350114571.post-67775118839743696032020-12-10T11:50:01.910-06:002020-12-10T11:50:01.910-06:00I always wonder how you get so much done in a day!...I always wonder how you get so much done in a day!
