December 23, 2010 Belated Update

As I write this it  is barely December 23...it's 11:58pm....almost Christmas Eve.  I know I often say this but I cannot believe how fast time goes by.  It has been about 10 days since I made an entry!

Bob is going "uphill' routinely.   He has improved energy most of the time.  He is driving now since he isn't on pain medication at this point.   He is very happy he can drive again.  Monday he went to Albany for the day...to the dentist first then to the office to "putter".

Today wasn't a great day for him....he was very cold and had  decreased energy.  I believe feeling so chilled is a combination of  the fact he has lost so much weight, not moving around a lot (exercise) because it's so cold out combined with we live   in the Berkshires!  Last time he was weighed I think he  lost around 35 lbs. He had to buy new jeans last week.

I suggested today  it may be time to wear "woollies" like the girls and I do.  We wear them daily  through Spring.  They are wool/silk  ( NO ITCH) long underwear.  They are so cozy!  Bob is NOT used to being  chilled ....he was always like a furnace. I, on the other hand, can get a chill in July if I'm in the shade!  (:   Woollies were made for people like me!!!!

During the last couple weeks this is some of what we've been up to...
The girls and I  were  in a
"No Dress Rehearsal Pageant" at our church.


We decorated cookies at church...




We went caroling at a nursing home with our church.....








We have been going sledding after school





Yes that is Olivia pulling her sister up the hill  AGAIN!
Olivia is a very patient big sister!


Chloe made new friends with 
Henry and Susans' dogs Guffy and Fleck...

That's Henry... Chloe thinks he's going to protect her from Guffy!

Then Chloe REALLY started having fun.

And of course the tree is  up, partially decorated AND
 Chloe  LOVES to undecorate it !


Finally today is Christmas Eve, tomorrow Christmas Day and Sunday, Dec 26 we have  a visitor coming  to stay with 
us for the winter....  More about that later......stay tuned...
it could be interesting!  (:
