Not happy about having to travel during this terrible Pandemic.. but we don't have any choice.. Once we get settled in,, I'll be back on line,, I hope.. so until then,,, Happy Safe New Year...
Oh and,, I can't fuss to much,, I'll be in the Palm Springs area,,, sunshine galore! Not a flake of snow ... but, unfortunately everything is closed down... so I will have to just soak up the sunshine. Hugz to you all >^..^<

Take care, Stay safe, and soak up that sunshine! There is always tea in the backyard on a sunny afternoon with some sort of bakery goodie to boost the energy !!

Enjoying the sunshine.... but.. clearing out and cleaning up one's mom's house... and mom was a "keeper of stuff,,, too much stuff"... is daunting... But,, bits' of joy have arisen,, I found the very 1st quilt I made,, for my mom, 45years old... which brings joy to my heart.. also found my Dirndle shoes,, (german shoes that went with my Dirndle,, but have not found the dress ,,, but still have rooms and closets to clear out.'
Happy New Year to you all,, from sunny Palm Springs.

Just got a short email from Grace (Katmom). She has very limited wi fi so wanted me to pass on to everyone that she is "up to her eyeballs" as she put it in the mess. But she is enjoying the fresh squeezed OJ and southern California sunshine every day -- I didn't need to hear that. LOL. She misses y'all. If she comes back with a suntan, I'm really gonna be upset with her. jean

Jean -- if you talk to her give her my condolences. We cleaned out departed parents home two years ago and it is one of those trials you never think you will finish. Please tell her it will get better, it really will.

Oh, bless her heart....the worst time with the addition of saying good bye to parents, signing through the house and cleaning it out. My heart hurts for her.....but shes has amazing resiliency. My heartfelt prayers and condolences.

Hey all,, , almost finished clearing out mom's house.. Monday the Rescue Mission comes to pick up the big stuff,,, so we will be down to just a sofa, TV, card table & 2 chairs and our AREO bed.. then it is on to cleaning up, painting, etc. My DH has gotten the front and back yard all spruced up. We had some lovely weather,, but now it is a bit dreary and we are expecting some rain tomorrow and on Monday. I do miss my house and kitty,, Kiki,, she is vacationing at my daughter's home and loving it.. Ginger pup is enjoying being able to 'woof' at the patio door to go out side to go tinkle all on her own.. I must say, having a fenced in back yard is nice for that reason... but it also takes some getting use to having neighbors all around.. I hope you all are staying safe and healthy and having fun in some sort of mischief.. I do miss my messy sewing room..
Hugz-n-squisches to you all.

I'm so glad you are maybe seeing the end of sprucing up and can soon come home. Sounds like you are getting a LOT done. Miss you! Take care.

Thanx ladies,, we figure we can head home about mid March... just in time to work on our Taxes... lol! Hubby and I decided to 'drive around and get lost'',, This whole Palm Springs area is quit interesting... love the old MCM (mid-century modern) buildings and oh my stars, the Golf Courses are Fabulous,, and I don't even golf! haha! Loving all the Geraniums and Roses... Today it rained in the later part of the day.. so I made comfort food, Schnitzle and Knodels... yumyum.. I am suppose to be balancing my check book on line but thought I would pop in to say Hi again.. Miss you all. >^..^<

Oh Grace! Your weather looks fabulous! I’m a bit jealous. Ours is a snow storm today and the wind is blowing super hard. It just started but should snow all day. I’m ready for some sunshine so I can take some walks. Please enjoy all that sunshine and walks for me.
Your hedgehogs are adorable! Have fun and hope to hear from you soon!
