Thursday & guess what?

It's Thursday night and I'm getting ready for my son and his wife. We will be having an early Christmas tomorrow. Things have been hectic and since there is more family to see and do things with, it is likely to be busy here until after the New Year. In fact, until 1/4 after hubby's colonoscopy. So here is what I am going to do. I'm going to post the rest of Christmas 4 Kiddies tonight, wish you Merry Christmas and Happy New Year and take a long holiday break.

Tuesday freebie - zip 4 christmas 4 Kiddies

The news from Dad's cardiologist was good and not. The EKG showed his heart rhythm is steady, which is good. However, the doc listened carefully to all Dad and I had to say and told him to reduce the heart med he'd given him to every other day and that might bring his heartbeat up some. He also said dad can stop taking Coumadin. Yeah! The doctor said these measures were not a fix but might help some and he will check him again in a month. Once home we got the wreath on Dad's door and his lighted tree up.

Here is today's zip:

Christmas 4 Kiddies freebie zip 3

Another step closer to being prepared for holidays but running out of time. Heard that my son is ill and trying to get better for the holiday while still working. In healthcare - sounds unlikely, doesn't it. Today it's turned cold again and we are having rain mixed with sleet. Taking dad to doctor and doing some things for him. Day will be gone before I know it.

So, here is today's zip:

Christmas 4 Kiddies freebie 2

Not getting any sleep the night before procedures caught up with me yesterday. The thing I hate worst about going for anything like the colonoscopy is having an IV put in. I have small veins and am a "hard stick." This time I thought I was tired I would not care. I warned the nurse about previous problems I've had, like the time I went to ER for a kidney stone and it took 12 tries to get an IV in. She was horrified and promised they would not do that to me. After examining my hand, she said she thought she saw a good vein but was going to give me a little lidocaine first in case it was tricky. She made one attempt and called for someone who was excellent finding veins in such cases. That nurse went up and down my arm looking for a suitable vein and noted that some of them rolled. She got a machine that helps find veins and shot my arm up with lidocaine and finally got a line in. After that, it was no big deal. Doctor took biopsies of my esophagus because I've had some trouble with spasms, found mild gastritis in my stomach, and removed 3 tiny polyps in colon which she didn't think were problematic. Got home and had a bowl of plain rice with a little butter and some gingerale and went to bed, taking along a bottle of water. That was about 3:00 p.m. and I only got up for more water or bathroom until about 9:30 a.m. today! A whole day wasted.

And today not much better. Finished up wrapping and adding all the bows etc. to packages and arranged for easy finding of each family group. That was pretty much it. Weather here is about to go from freezing to 70s tomorrow. Had a headache all day which is probably sinus and weather related but could also be dehydration. Working at getting all that under control.

Anyway, here is today's zip:

It will be Friday here shortly so posting new freebie

It's late Thursday and I'm about to try to get a little sleep before I have to be up at 3:00 a.m. to finish the rest of the prep. Thought I'd go ahead and post for Friday since I expect I'll want to sleep when I get home. Hubby has promised to take me to Outback for dinner, figuring I should be starving when I wake up. I expect I won't last long once we get home. Need to get up early Saturday to get some cleaning and other stuff done. I saw my first snow flakes the other day when I went to store. Just a few tiny little things that dissolved before they reached the ground. I love snow - when I can stay inside and watch it while sipping hot tea or cocoa. When I lived in Richmond and we got sizable snows, I was younger (30s) and loved to bundle up and go for midnight walks around the neighborhood. Now I'd probably fall and break something. Kristy, you be extra careful in that weather there. You've done enough damage to yourself this year! Seriously, take care and heal up so you can start 2017 well.

For the rest of the month - or however long it lasts, I've got another Christmas kit for you. This one, called Christmas 4 Kiddies features some adorable candy cane babies and young children. Hope you like it. Here is your first zip:
