December 10. 2025 Donna brought a beautiful bouquet of flowers on Thanksgiving, and they have been thriving. It was enough flowers to fill two vases. There were several lilies in the group, and they have slowly bloomed. It smells like Easter at our house, and it is wonderful.

Tuesday, December 9, 2025 We had super light fluffy snow the other night and I hypothesized that you could use a leaf blower to blow off your car – now that leaf blowers come in cordless. Keith put ours in the car for me to try. It started snow-globe snowing midafternoon and I had plenty

Monday, December 8, 2025 I worked at two different schools today, so I told Keith I needed to drive myself. He was all worried, which was sweet, but I thought I could do it. And I did. I seem to be able to see big spaces pretty well – close up isn’t nearly as good.

Tuesday, December 2, 2025 After Woodbury Junior High changed to Woodbury Middle School 15ish years ago, there was a potluck before school started gathering those interested from WJH. The group continued to meet every summer until pandemic – then we increased the backyard visits! There are now nearly monthly gatherings. Tonight, we celebrated 60th birthdays
