(156) Quickly, some thoughts

I still want to blog the pictures of the day and evening of the Christmas party.

Thank you for everyone who commented on it!  

Yes, it was a lot of work! I can only do a few bigger events like this a year! 

I saw L. on Monday and today.  She is still in Rehab recovering from 

all of her sicknesses... 

Yesterday I was in NYC all day and walked over 7 miles, a record for me; 

I did a lot of errands and the like. 

I am about at my limit of what I can do this week; 

I write about just because we don't know what the days bring.

I see more and more how I need to try to judge how I am doing

to know what I can reasonably expect to do in a day.

My friend gave me a warm soft, so very soft, blanket for my birthday

and it has been such a comfort. 

I made L. chicken soup; it reminded me of how I made chicken soup

last year for my friend Photini (who is much better and working again)... 

It was a busy day because Wednesdays my Husband is 

home and so I was on lunch and dinner duty + visiting L and making her soup.

And trying to make a dent in house cleaning.

That's the other side of a special dinner party: while the dishes are put away, 

I am still in the process of putting it all away

(the teapots, the silver plate from VNA rummage sales, etc etc).

If I don't write again right away, it's just that I am busy.

Tomorrow morning liturgy and then lots of house cleaning and the like

for our DV house blessing this Sunday!

And Saturday I will DV make a chocolate torte! 

May God bless and help us all!
