Two Days Until December

Tell me. Do people with real money get hit up for donations every rip stitch? I do. And I am far from wealthy. It irritates me. The pleas for money and such, not that I'm not wealthy. I have enough, know what I mean? But not much more than that.

Then there's the matter of a $4000+ property tax bill, due December 20. Do I really deserve that? It irritates me more than the requests for donations because this I have no choice about. I just have to pay it.

On the other hand, December means singing. The group I sing with goes out to sing ten times during the month, that in addition to our Christmas Concert. I love to do it, but it takes some energy.

It's My Blog, You Know

What's the deal? I'm writing something. Finally.

This is a good day for it. My daughter, Alyce, the mother of the miracle baby, is going to have another miracle baby. Hallelujah and thank the Lord. And I mean that.

I have been sworn to secrecy until this minute, with good reason, I'm sure. And I kept the secret. But now I can tell, and I'm telling.

This miracle will come next June and will be a little sister for Saxby. Oh my goodness. Don't we wonder what that will be like.

Other news.
I got my property tax bill yesterday. It has knocked me down and pulled off my socks. $4029.and some cents, due December 20. My very own Christmas present from Ada County.

Better news.
Wayne, my son, and his family will be here in four days. We'll have Thanksgiving dinner together. Do I even know how to cook anymore? Lola and her boys (I think) will be here and Andrew, but I don't know about his boys. But, as they say, it's all good. No, I hate that little phrase. I cannot say it. Cross it out in your mind. I didn't say it.

I think this is the end.
