Good evening everyone! I hope you all have had an AMAZING day and recuperated nicely from NY Eve!

I stayed in with my kids and granddaughter. My son in law had to work yesterday as did my son, and my son also had to work today. Thank God tomorrow is Friday and he is off on the weekend.

I cooked today. I made fried wontons using my daughter’s air fryer for the first time. I was impressed! I also made a sausage puff pastry as it is a family favorite since I made it the first time last year I believe. Here is the recipe if you ever want to try it! It’s really delicious!!

I also made teriyaki chicken wings, which I have been for decades, along with the wontons. It’s out usual NY Day meal.

This year, my daughter made two kinds of mac n cheese- one is Tini’s Mac n cheese- viral recipe right here- https://youtu.be/1RQzZhqpWnA?si=quPGaaEXkaqKkEb6

and the other one is a vegan Mac n cheese because my son in law is lactose intolerant.

So it was a feast- ful day, it just so dang long to get it all done.

Of course I had to take time out to babysit my granddaughter, who is such a joy and light of my life, she’s so funny! At 18 months, her personality is showing and I believe she is quite the Gemini! LOL or maybe it’s just that she’s heading into her two’s…. You know what I’m saying?! LOL

What did you all do today?

I really just wanted to hop on and wish you all a very prosperous new year, full of the many blessings that are waiting for YOU! Do any of you make resolutions? Share if you wish, I understand if you don’t want to. ❤️

Take care for now and I’ll write again soon!

I can ‘t believe it was 68 years ago this day that my Guy was born! He doesn’t look his age, but the years of pounding the pavement as a Letter Carrier have definitely caught up to him! He still carries on as the saying goes, you can’t keep a good man down.

This day has started off really good! First of all, I woke up! Any day above ground is a blessing! I didn’t sleep all that great last night, I kept waking up. I was afraid I was going to oversleep as this week is Semester Finals so I had to be to work a little earlier than normal to do my morning supervision. It’s also the last week before Winter Break. Students get out at 12:45, but I have to stay until my usual work time. I’ll be busy so that’s good. Students last day is Thursday, while my last day is Friday.

While I was working, my boss called for me so I had to go meet with her. I got my evaluation. First one in 7 years! It was good! Do you know how good it feels to hear that you are appreciated and an asset to your work community? It brought tears to my eyes. I was happy and proud at the same time. Last year I had 3 months of nonsense and it really took a toll on me, I felt. Bosses changed so I had to change my mindset. I hated that issues affected me and people tried to make it hard for not only myself but others, but I love what I do and I wasn’t going to let it continue to affect me.

Anyway, it’s almost time, like a half hour left so I best get going. Hope you all have a great rest of your day and I will write again soon! Until then…

TTFN,

How was everyone’s Thanksgiving? I was off work for a week and it was so nice to relax and not think of anything except breathing and my family.

I did have a few appts to attend but other than that, I spent a lot of time with my funny little toddler granddaughter.

I was talking to my daughter one day and told her how I just knew her dad, my late husband, would have had the BEST time with playing with our granddaughter! It was the 20th anniversary since his passing on 11/29, and he is surely missed. We went to the movies that night, as we do as a family, because Keith loved going to the movies. We saw WICKED: FOR GOOD and my son and I loved it! My daughter said she loved WICKED better. I thought they both were great! We didn’t make it to his favorite burger place, In and Out, because it was already after midnight and we were all pretty exhausted.

ALL in ALL, it was a great vacation.

It’s back to the grind, for 2.5 weeks before we are on Winter Break for 2 weeks, WE CAN DO THIS! LOL

Have a great day, everyone, will write more later!

TTFN,

Hello All, I hope you had a very relaxing Thanksgiving! Just wanted to give a THANK YOU and a hug to you who read my blog. I’m trying to get better at writing more. I just need to be consistent. Thank you for hanging in there with me!!!

Ours was nice. I was on a week vacation so we did a little shopping to get last minute things. My daughter cooked and I helped out either by babysitting my granddaughter or helping in the kitchen. ALL in all, it came out very nice. We had my little family, which including my Guy, my granddaughter Daddy (my daughter’s significant other) and a couple friends.

Unfortunately, at one point I had gotten sick. I felt like I had been hit and runned over by a mac truck! It was the result of getting the flu shot the day before! I really debated on getting the flu shot because of how it makes me feel, but I got it anyway. The doc said it was just my body building up antibodies. I took a little nap and when I woke up, I had way more energy, but still felt wiped out.

At the end of the day, it was a very relaxing day. I’m glad it’s only once a year, LOL.

Let me know how you all spent your Thanksgiving! I’d love to know!

Until Next Time,

P~

He was a baby! These mo-fo’s, Jake Haro and his wife, Rebecca Haro deserve the death penalty, IMO.

I didn’t believe them when they spoke at their news conference from the gate.
