Hard couple of weeks.

It has been a long hard two weeks. I am finally starting to get back to the routine of my life. It has been hard. Jet lag always gets me down. We did ok, but I am still cold and dragging around here.
Today was a holiday so I didn't have class. I knitted on socks most of today. Got two more pair done for Lorraine and am still knitting the tops. It rained all day so a good day to stay home and knit.
Amy came last Thursday and went home Sunday. We had a good visit and got some knitting done. We took a ride up to Julian and took a look at Debra's shop. And of course we had some pie at "MOM'S" Yummy.
I still need to download my pictures from the trip. Maybe I will get to them tomorrow. Not much going on tomorrow so I should have time. It is hard to get started, I feel like I need a nap all day. The cold and the rain make me lazy!

Last full day in South Carolina!

Today is our last day. The kids went back to school and we are going down town Charleston to the Market. It is an awesome place. Lots of goodies for sale. I am going to bring back some of their spices. They have these wonderful blends for all kinds of cooking. Cajun, bar-b-que and roasted chicken etc. I promised my sil Tony I would bring him some.

I have been knitting and will take pictures to post when I get home.

We leave for Alabama in the morning and head back to San Diego on the 7th. I could stay here forever, but miss my stuff the most. I know I will miss all the kids, but summer is not that far away and they will come to my house then. The kids (grandkids) not my children. They work for a living and I know it is too expensive for them to come.

I am looking forward to the warm days in Ramona.

Later still

Go Chargers!

Today the Chargers play. We are going to a sports bar/restraunt to watch the game and eat Chicken wings. Ron is in heaven. Everywhere we go they have Chicken Wings. Yummmy. I think he is stocking up. I love them too, but he is way out of control.

It was 21 degrees last night. The dog's water in the screened in porch was frozen. Yikes it is cold. The sun is out, but the wind is freezing. I will never be warm again. No how many sweaters, socks and other clothing I put on I am cold.


Brrrrr Later

Happy New Year!!!

Can't believe another year has gone by. We had a great time. First we went to Red Lobster for dinner, yummy. Then we went to a Hockey game. The last time we were here (12 years ago) we went to our first hockey game. This time we had seats "on the glass". It was very exciting and now the Stingrays are very good. It was cold in the Colosseum, but then it is cold everywhere.

We got home and it started to rain minutes later. I was so glad we got home before it started. The neighbors were shooting off fire works and it got really loud as the New Year approached.

Today we had Chick-f-la and went to a game store so Peyton could exchange a game. I found another game for my Wii and a couple of DS games. We had Prime Rib Roast for dinner and I cooked some black eyed peas for luck and collard greens just because. We are all ready to rest and watch a movie.
