Good morning

Good morning. It’s early in the morning on Tuesday and I’m gazing out the window at the snowfall that happened last night. It has covered the ground and is still coming down. Our Circle of Friends group is meeting in the nearby town and I’m wondering how many people will call me and cancel since we are always fearful of driving in bad roads at our age. When I was younger a little snowfall would never keep me from doing anything. I have been known to drive on some really treacherous roads just to go shopping. But of course I am more cautious now. My friends and I are in charge of this month’s meeting and we chose to go to Sprague’s which is such a lovely place to have lunch. 

I am still in my pajamas this morning since I have decided not to go to coffee with my friends on Tuesdays and Fridays when they go to a more popular and larger restaurant in town. I feel since the cases of Covid are on the rise that I should limit my exposure as much as possible. It is always in the back of my mind that I could be exposed and get Covid or carry it home to Don who has COPD. After today’s meeting I am also not going to any more group meetings for a while. 

I have been decorating my house for Christmas a little early this year since my family is coming for Thanksgiving. I am happy that we will all be together but so worried also. I know we are taking a chance having them here. It is a risk. I haven’t seen my Tennessee family for almost a whole year and have missed them so much. 

I have made a lot of food ahead of time so I don’t have to be worried about cooking all the time. My turkey is purchased and we will have a large feast next Thursday. I’m hoping that maybe they will want to make Christmas cookies while they are here to divide up to take home.
