Here’s my weekly post. This is covering the 1st two weeks of the January. Jan. 10 – Everything was cancelled for this day, because it was a day we were supposed to have ice.

Just a quick little post to remember this Christmas 2024…the last one before our granddaughter is here! Breakfast Casserole (recipe) I made the weekend before Christmas since we had company. Christmas Eve Since Rob’s dad is seriously considering moving from Huntsville, TX to our area, so we hooked him up with one of our realtor friends. He was gracious enough to show us a couple houses on Christmas eve morning. Later that day, we attended church and then came home to have our traditional Christmas Eve meal (Ham, Hash brown Casserole, and Teriyaki Green beans). Always love having this guy…

Today, I’m sharing my Amazon purchases that prepared me for shoulder surgery. So just as a recap, in March I went back to the Orthopeadic doctor, so see if I could get another steroid shot. However, after some strength tests, he seemed concerned that something might be torn, so instead of an injection he ordered a MRI. That came back and showed I had tears in my rotator cuff and bicep tendon, which is a very combination. I ended up scheduling surgery about a month out and then I started researching full force. I will say there are a ton…

Last Tuesday after work, we headed towards Texas, planning to spend the night in Shreveport to break up the trip since its a 12 hour drive. We ended up having a delay when Google Maps told us to take a detour near Selma. We went over some railroad tracks and ended up going over a pot hole that gave us a flat tire.
