IT'S BEEN A WHILE!

Well, it has certainly been a day or two since I have posted! We had the big Gala at work on last Friday night and outside of being a chinese firedrill when the food was put out on the buffet tables, it went pretty well. Have got to work on a better "flow" for the crowds that we have come to expect at this event. I talked with the dietary manager on Sunday at our employee Christmas party and we think we have it worked out for next year- goodie. Tomorrow I will work with three activity directors from a neighboring state who will be at my building for some training, networking and brainstorming. Looking forward to that. Husband and I were off today to recoop from the past couple of weeks of getting our building decorated and preparing for the Gala.
We took a bottle of that almond wine I've been talking about on here- to the party- it was like a liquer (is that how you spell lik-koor?). It has aged into a mighty fine sipping drink. Smooth! Just took over two years to get it to that point! While I've been off today I made pumpkin bread and a wonderful beef stew to share with my neighbors. I have three and they are all elderly and ill or alone. Have not been paying them the kind of attention I should for a little while-so am fixing that this afternoon. Bought two new recliners over the weekend. Husband's is h-u-g-e! And I got one for me that just fits me pretty nicely! It is beautiful, too. Merry Christmas to us.
