Re: how about drinking?
My family is going to see the winter lights at the Botanic Gardens this evening. It's usually a good show, so I'm excited to catch it this year.
Re: how about drinking?
I love being able to spend time with my Daddy's side. We are more close than my mom's side. I do have cousins that I talk to on that side but we are all busy with our lives.

NM, your comment made me smile. I thought DH would get a kick out if it, so I created a gofundme page!!
Early results seem to show only the 4 lesions (spent the afternoon waiting for an MRI) . I'm hopeful, grateful, angry, sad, blah, blah.

Had my first official White Christmas here since we moved here! Went to my aunt's for both Thanksgiving and Christmas again this year for dinner! Had a blast being around my family. At least there I can breathe and feel like I belong unlike when it was in regard to hubby's family.

Chris - sorry to hear that another hand surgery is required but hopefully this will allow better use of your hands.
Betrayal - I love hearing about your genealogy - you are quite the detective and clearly have a mind for details.
Interesting comments regarding shingles. I had the Shingrix vaccine (2 dose) in 2019. I realize that it does not offer 100% immunity but after seeing a co-worker and my brother deal with the agony I am willing to do whatever I can to lessen my risk.
Good to hear from you Taco and Carole. I woke up to low 40’s and sun which is practically spring like weather for January in my area. We headed to a park for a hike. Only saw 2-3 other folks which was a little surprising however, school resumed today and I imagine most folks have gone back to work after the holidays. Expecting quite a bit of rain/freezing drizzle or snow (depending on temperatures) later this week.
Wishing all a good week.

I’m up with the chickens…
Dinner last night was delicious! We all had something different. A crab stuffed ravioli with shrimp in a carbonara; crab stuffed chicken breast; chicken parm for me; spaghetti and meatballs with no sauce, just butter & cheese for my grandniece.
The moon was spectacular as we drove home from the restaurant.
Alarm set for 5:10 AM. A lot of rain last night, we need it desperately, so this morning the moon is hidden behind fog & clouds. Sun coming up now.
I’ve got laundry going, and I want to set off the robot vacuum too. I’ll strip the bedroom and bathroom at some point today. Right now I’m not sure if I’m going back to sleep, or will nap later.
Lots of football on today. Enjoy your Sunday!

Re: Newly diagnosed stage 1 Invasive Ductal Carcinoma
Thank you so much for telling me about your stories! I took a much-needed trip out of town with my husband for New Year’s My surgery is scheduled for January 12 and I have decided to do a bilateral mastectomy with delayed reconstruction. Even though my genetic testing was negative, I do have a family history of breast cancer. I did have a second opinion from a plastic surgeon and also had a discussion with my breast radiologist. This is what is best for me and my peace of mind.
