HI Everybody! Merry Christmas. After today we will be saying Happy New Year. I hope everyone is spending today with family and friends, eating mass quantities and making the most of this day. We are cooking at Alex’s apartment. Two of his friends that are here by themselves will be eating with us also. It should be fun. Big ole hungry boys. I would hate it if my son had to be by himself on holidays. There was no table here, so we got him a table. He picked it out, a card table with four chairs. That is all he really needs right now. I guess you take care of your kids till they grow up, and then some. I am just happy to be able to spend this holiday with at least one of my babies.
So the other day, John and Alex went out and looked for a car. After going to a few lots, they finally found a car that was good enough. When your kids are across the country, you have to have the sense of security for them. I sure hope we don’t have to come out for this reason again. The next trip will probably be for graduation, I hope.
Yesterday, we went to the super Wal Mart here to do a little shopping for today’s dinner. These places are huge. They have everything there. I don’t know why people don’t want them. There are four of them in Tulsa, and a million other stores. It doesn’t appear that they are effecting the economy in this area. From what I hear, the unemployment rate here is next to nothing. Alex says if you don’t have a job here, it is because you didn’t look. When he first got here, he had a job the first day he looked. He didn’t even finish filling out the application. OK, off track.
We got all the fixins for dinner. We had to go a little off from what we normally do. Pre-made pumpkin pie, canned whipped cream, and we forgot cranberry sauce. We will have enough to eat though. What really matters is that we are spending the holiday doing what we want. I wrote a while back about the lap quilts I made for my friends. I will write about that on another day. I have to tell you who my friends were. All but one of them is delivered. So when that happens, I will tell you. OK, that is all for today, I will see you all tomorrow, or when I have something good to say. Merry Christmas from my family to yours.
