I can't really tell what I have in the picture file until I see it here on the screen. Spaghetti with vegetables. Certainly been here before. But it's what you get.
It's cold in the house but it just might be me. Still a bit whiff-y. But getting better. Very little cough. And more chance I will be fed today as I have bread and sliced cheese and a nice Toasted Cheese with sweet pickle chips is in my future. I tossed the idea of making soup for myself- around a bit- and then just let that go. Maybe tomorrow. I recall last year at this Time, making raspberry jello with frozen raspberries and topping with whip cream left over from Pumpkin Pie. That was delightful.
That could have been a FEW YEARS AGO. the Jello.
Christmas is days away. Thank goodness i didn't try for a tree or gifts etc. As fast as the days are going past.......the holiday will be gone and I certainly won't feel like I missed anything.
I haven't sent cards yet. But I haven't gotten many either. So..we are all in the same boat. I dug around in the dresser drawer filled with cards.......looking for one in particular. Didn't find it. And was reminded of last year and the painted hearts I sent for Valentines. I liked that. Very much. I did find blank brown card stock that I had used for years.....when I drew a spindly evergreen tree and added red ornaments and snow. I even have one I made from scraps of silk in shades of green and gold- I found it at my dad's house after he passed.. He had it pinned to the wall by his kitchen chair.
I WAS creative once. Where has it gone? Does it need to be fed by friends and co-creatives??? And when you are away too long- from human contact-- does it fade and go away? Is this what growing old is like. Having what was...fall away???? I miss myself.
