The sights are beautiful

Twinkling white lights - lots of red ribbon - and the smell of pine - yes, for the first time in about 10 years my house is decorated for the holidays. My sister made the arrangements for a florist to come put up a tree and add lots of other decorations. Its wonderful - and the tree is about as perfect as any I have ever seen.

When I look out the windows I see lots of snow on the mountains but the sun is bright down here and the day is moderately warm.

Yesterday and again today I made my first trips to the grocery store. The little scooters they provide are such fun and make shopping for me a possibility. It is a lot of work still but I feel stronger each day.

I actually did laundry today and finished wrapping presents and took them to UPS store - then the grocery store - I believe I will sleep well tonight - as I am currently done in.

Hope all is well with you and that you are approaching the holidays with joy and sanity.
Hugs - Chuck

I think you are doing too much all at one time try to pace yourself. So glad your sister did that for you I am sure it has done much to cheer you. Hope your other friends and neighbors are pitching in to help you also.
