All the oldies, White Christmas, Holiday Inn, The Bishops Wife, Christmas in Connecticut, and I even persuaded her to watch “The Polar Express”. I hope she enjoyed them because I did.

that a friend that I had gone to high school with, and also taken ballet lessons with died last month of a heart attack. We are the same age. This is a wake-up call for me. I have got to get healthy, lose weight, exercise, all that stuff. Mom needs me, and I really don’t want to die, even though I get really depressed sometimes. Starting today.
Mom loves Sweet Potatos. I’ll let you know how it tastes, but I can’t imagine that anything by Paula Deen would be bad!
