What are You Most Thankful For This Christmas???

~Day 25: What are you most thankful for this Christmas?~
Without a doubt, it's the fact that my mom is healthy this year. Definitely more healthy than last year. Mom was so sick last year. She tried to be up and around for me but she barely remembers the day she was so sick. Once we opened presents and the ham was finished, she slept most of the day. Dad and I tried to make the most of it but it was hard knowing Mom was so sick. She's definitely not the healthiest she's ever been but she's feeling good this year. We had tons of fun last night and today!!! And Mom enjoyed the day!!! She loved everything she got and she loved watching us all open presents! And she even let me take silly pics of them as they opened. You could tell it made Dad's day too...knowing both of his girls were there and happy. I would say this was by far the best Christmas we've had in years.

See!!! Silly Mom!!! She was SUPER excited about the fleece sheets I got her and Dad for Christmas. They are super comfy and warm! So it was worth that silly look!

New Year, New Me

New year, new me. Who says that? Ok, a lot of people so no offense if you’re one of them. But I like me. Sure, I’m not perfect. But I don’t want to really change all of me. So no silly quote like that for me! It is hard to believe that 2019 is here. The older I get, the quicker time flies by. I do remember being told that when I was a teenager. Those people were so right. It feels like yesterday that I was sitting in my quiet house while Johanna was off with friends celebrating the start of 2018. But that was a year ago. Today, I’m still sitting in my quiet house but that’s because Karyna is just waking up for the day. A few years ago, I used to work on videos that would highlight my year. I loved doing them but they took time. And that’s time that I don’t have as much of these days. It’s hard to go through a year of pictures and videos. Do you know how many pictures I take a year? My goodness!...

Lots of Names

Well, this is my fourth Friday in my apartment!!! It really does feel like home for the most part!!! Tera helped me...wait...I take that back. Tera MOVED my swing and table from mom and dad's a few weeks ago and so that is now on my deck! I love it!! Although, I have to admit that I haven't been home too much to enjoy it but at least I know it's there. Hopefully I'll get the chance to relax on my swing this weekend. I set my smoke alarm off the other night! That was funny! I was cooking a chicken patty and some fries in the oven. All of a sudden I hear this loud beeping! Of course once I realized it was the smoke alarm, I ran into the kitchen. Everything was good in there! Food was cooking just fine! Apparently it just got too hot in here for the smoke alarm. The funny part though is me standing on the chair trying to figure out why the alarm won't quit chirping every 45 seconds...even after I took out the battery! So after a text to the landlords (who laughed), I r...
