Lookig at a Mess

I sit here at my computer looking at a huge mess, At least it is huge in my eyes.
 I have my Christmas boxes stacked in the rec room, angels are on a table as is a door wreath and
Door Garland. The Door garland may become a Mantle Garland this year.
My Big Angel has a broken wing. :( I must find the super glue and fix her wing.)
She was given to me by the ladies that worked for me at Montgomery Ward in 1995. She is so  beautiful.
 Last year she got a dress and hair washing and was back as good as new.
Now a Broken Wing.
Some days I think my wing is broken too, Not sure it is angelic but certainly a wing.

Tonight as David slept I put the tree together. I then layered battery operated lights on several branches. I placed some of the same lights in front of the Curio Cabinet mirror.
He woke and was complaining. I was in distress.
 I had a huge surprise for him and he never had time or took time to see it.
I am such a grouch today too. Some days are just not my day.
He worked in the yard a little bit today. Blowing Leaves.
I gave him that job because it is easy. I think it was not easy for him. He is now in pain. He is upset because he feels no end to the pain or loss of use and he feels he is no help to me.
Well he is can not help  but I rather he get well than take a chance on re injuring.

While I had him busy, Not helping me, I hauled up all the Christmas Boxes. I hung a rod and curtains on my slider in the bedroom, I mopped the floors and vacuumed the bedrooms, I hung pictures, I washed dishes then I went to ROUND TABLE for a pizza we ordered.
I am now addressing Christmas cards and I need addresses. Can you imagine, addresses after all these years of knowing people. Where is my brain? Oh I know, "Brain Took a Holiday"
And Holiday does  not mean I am leaving Christ out of Christmas, It means HOLIDAY. Like a leave of absence.
Today I showed David my incredible balance. Well incredible for a 66 year old. I stood on the small  ladder on my tiptoes and did not weave at all. I told him to stay back, Back Back, as his presence can cause me to weave a little, He kept getting too close, "in case I fall" He said.. I don't know about you but when someone touches me I lose balance. I told him, "If you were not here I would still be up on this ladder, so relax."

So now I sit here hungry and wishing I had someone to talk to, David can not hear unless he wants to.
Ken said, "All Men have to say are five  words, Sit down and Shut Up"  Or "Move  you are blocking the Football Game" Yeah he has an answer for everything.
What to eat, Not left over pizza, I am not enthused by that idea. I will find something.

If I am not called in tomorrow I think I will start my cookie making. Not sure why but it is nice to have cookies during the holidays. Well for me it is one cookie or two.
When we left Kens on Thursday, Ken loaded his dad up with a carton of candy he made. The penuche was delicious, the divinity was Divine, the roca rounded out the box.
When I got home Friday, only 4 pieces were left in the box. Wonder how many were there to begin with. And he complains about gaining a pound or two, I know what caused it.
Thank you Ken for the Penuche, Your Dad was so proud you remembered how much he liked that candy.

Thinking of baking is good enough, isn't it?
Help clean our yards. LOL, just kidding, Leaves were falling as fast as he blew them off the patios today. I had to laugh, He was being hammered by leaves and he was blowing them as fast as he could. I worked on skimming the pool a little while, It was full of leaves, but I bet tomorrow will be much worse. (for leaves falling)
 Oh well tomorrow will be better, I am much to tired to think today, Tomorrow I will take care of all of it.
MAYBE!!!!
