New Year

Well, I will try this again, I just wrote a log blog, but my internet provider decided to kick me off and it took me an hour to get back on.
Well, here it goes again. We had a great Christmas, my daughter and her kids came back from Maryland, and between sharing her kids with her ex(they are friendly)and their friends from Springfield, Ill. where they used to live. we had a great two weeks with them. Christmas Eve was with our son Eric(his son was with his mom) and then home for Christmas, it was nice. Eric went with his girlfriend for Christmas day, so we had a mini Christmas the next Sunday(that is when his came home from his mom's. I am getting use to this split holidays, you have to go with the flow. It worked out and everybody had a great time
The sunday everybody was at my house,Julie, her kids, Eric, his son, his girlfriend, and his twin brother Gary, too. So all three kids were together. I was sick, and did not tell anybody. After they left, I passed out, scaring my husband half to death. It seems I had the flu and was a touch dehydrated. It took about a week to recover. There is not much medicine they can give for this flu, just nausea pills, and pills to stop going(if you know what I mean).
So for New Years Eve(our 39 wedding anniversary.), I had the flu, and for our anniversary, I gave my husband the flu. We sent our daughter and her kids to Springfield for New Years Eve, but when they came, they still did not get the flu, thank goodness.
This year I want to accomplish,
finally cleaning my basement,
putting all my pictures in albums,
getting back to my crafts,(which are greeting cards, learning cross stitch, scrapbooking
and many more
putting my genealogy records in order.
organizing and cleaning out my recipes and cookbooks.
and last but not least is- blogging on a regular basis

Now that I have put these goals in writing maybe I will accomplish them, it worked last fall,except the clean the basement part.
I will be talking to ya !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Good to see you posting Jan.
Sorry you were sick, we all were too, right over Christmas (of course). Jo is still deaf in one ear from a really painful infection.
I must sort out what I would like to acomplish this year, but putting my genealogy in order I can concur with.
Catch you soon.
