Ahhh...Winter in S.Florida....The weather changes about every 2 hours. 80*, then rainy and chilly.

The Canadian border has opened and the "Snow Birds" have descended upon our borders and shores. Opening up their winter nests, clogging our roads and stores in droves...

I have noticed no one got the new jacket notice last year.
Tackiness abounds without any real notice it isn't 1983 anymore. Members Only Jackets should be outlawed and one donated to The Smithsonian Institute, right next to Archie Bunker's chair.

Face lifts and new boobs and lip fillers...on people from 16 to 86. Frighting on some level. Saw a young woman whose lips looked like her Dr was mad at her and added enough filler in her lips that she looked like satirical character on SNL. I was captivated by them and found myself gawking like an idiot, especially when after eating her food (which seemed to be semi difficult) she applied and reapplied lip stick and gloss till those babies were slick and shiny. Honestly remember Goldie Hawn in "First Wives Club"? Yep that big.

Older and really old woman with skin so taut I fear their eyes may pop out. And perky bulging boobs with their saggy,flattened butts. I want to know what the shelf life is on plastic surgery? I mean do you awake one morning and realize your eyelids have now fallen over your eyes like a bloodhound and the boobs have fallen back under your arm pits when on your back. Grandmothers should stop applying eyeliner when the shaking in your hand has become acute. Nothing better than droopy eyelids accentuated by raccoon black liner and red scarlet lips with more wrinkles then some ones asshole. Does no one own mirrors anymore. Ladies vanity is one thing, excepting your age and body type is another.
Point in fact: My hairdresser who I've known for years and who is older than me says you shouldn't wear short hair anymore, longer hair will make you look slimmer. I laughed out loud and said your right Tom longer hair will camouflage my fat ass. Just cut it and I was still laughing and so was he..yeesh

This has been a year of surprises, disappointments and growth. All important in some way. No regrets, just more lessons learned about myself and life. My family is well and trudging along with the everyday moments. My husband is great and so are the kids and the babies.
We are praying for some financial relief soon. Praying for construction to open up. Enough to pay our bills and keep things going. We're not greedy. Faith beyond everything.


I'm finishing my Christmas details and I think it's going to be wonderful. My MC is taking on Christmas dinner this year so I get a break from all the work.
Our oldest dog Elijah is turning 15yrs.old on the 26Th. He weighs 8-lbs and is still spunky,just no stairs anymore, his little chicken legs give out.


I hope Christmas is happy for all and filled with good things, love,hope, fulfillment of all kinds....
