DeleteIt's Kathy. Merry Christmas to you all! I'm so glad the Piano Man is able to stop by and fix your piano. My mom loved her piano and played it all the time. It was relaxing for her. I wish I could have kept it after she passed away but I had no space for it in my home and I never really learned to play. Took piano lessons for a year but it was not my thing! We celebrated with my children yesterday afternoon. It was probably the best Christmas celebration we've had in a long time. The 3 little boys were allowed to play upstairs - Jessica sleeps up there and she had it remodeled this year so it's really nice! And it seems they didn't damage anything which is a small miracle! They were actually good about opening their gifts too - understanding that they had to wait their turn! And the food was amazing, which we were able to take some home so no cooking for me for a couple of days! I hope your Christmas is wonderful. I also hope your sons come to their senses and call their parents on Christmas Day!!! You are amazing, you've done something really hard but in the long run it will be such a benefit to you and himself! Merry Christmas!
ReplyDeleteKathy --Yu do sound so good--And yer boys sound a lot better!Yes I do love my piano and it sounded terrible--Pianos are not happy moving---- He says tho if we can increase the humidity in the apartment it will help the piano--ht os good!--And it is good to hear how much yu enjoyed today-- Nice! Lynda

DeleteA very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and yours, too.
ReplyDeleteI am here just relaxing. Got some gas, a blueberry muffin and a free cup of coffee at my local gas station/convenience store that's just 4 blocks away. It's the only thing in town that is open.
Tomorrow I go see a dear karaoke friend (93 y/o) who is in hospice at the facility across the street and Friday I go to my daughter's for our celebration.
I'm about to do a nap and cuddle with Lucky. Oh! I haven't given him is gift yet! It's a new want toy for me to flip around so he can chase and catch it. It's got a fish in the end with feathers attached to his tail. He will love it. I'll give it to him later before his supper.
Have a great dear, whatever you do. Just be happy. We have this wonderful holy-day and a new year of adventures ahead.
Did you see my later than late comment last night? My first one didn't post! {{{HUGS}}} Love, your sis, Maggie
Maggie--We all made it to Christmas eh??--Happy to hear that yu go to your daughters for Xmas--Wonder why some of yer comments do not post--not right!!! --The Piano tuner came here this afternoon--ON CHRISTMAS DAY--I believe God up in Heaven sent him--LOL--Lynda
DeleteMerry Christmas to you and yours!!! And many blessings in the new year to come.
ReplyDeleteMy two 'kids' and the dogs are all sleeping soundly; kids drove three hours home through the early morning hours and got here about 5:30am; I heard them come in and went back to sleep straight away, happy to know they were home safe.
So, my day will be quiet and my meals will be leftovers of the yummy Italian food we made for our Christmas celebration on the 23rd. Then, back to my regular healthy eating tomorrow ... that holiday feast food is so delicious, but I'm ready for the healthy stuff and the energy that comes with it and being more active.
Oh it does sound good to know yer kids arrived safely--I completely understand-- HUgs-Lynda
DeleteMerry Christmas! Just read yesterday’s post. Thinking about your other three sons, if don’t hear from them by evening, give each a call and wish them a Merry Christmas. You will have done the right thing and how they respond is on them. We cannot change other people, but we don’t have to behave as badly as they do. Hugs! Enjoy the day and enjoy your new place. Sometimes change can be a very good thing.
ReplyDeleteI jut called Son#2 who has a bad cold-- He hasn't called--so I did call him----It must be hard o be so angry eh--but --he was OK today-- Lynda
DeleteI wish you all a very Merry Christmas and all the best for the New Year!!
ReplyDeleteIt is really great that Himself is so improved. I think that makes all the chaos and heartache worth it many times over.
Merrilyn
Merrilyn--- Himself is almost normal--for a 95 yr old --LOL--I mean--=at 95 , one can't be completely normal--but--who is "normal" anyway?--Happy Xmas! Lynda
DeleteMerry, merry Christmas to you and yours! I hope that you have a lovely holiday with Fred and family in your new home! ❤️ Eissa7 (Karen)

DeleteHave a very Merry Christmas Lynda with Fred and Matt and his family. Amazing that the piano man is stopping by today. and then you can play your piano which is what you really need to relax after the chaos of a big move. Call the other boys later tonight if you haven't heard from them. Enjoy the rest of the day. Hugs Brenda
ReplyDeleteOh I just called Son#2 --His family are all il with a cold-- Too bad--- We had a good visit--- Lynda
DeleteHi Brenda--Yes the Piano man came on Xmas Day--and the Piano sounds pretty good-- We need more Humidity in this place to help the piano--I will order 2 Humidity things--I had them at home but left them-- Lynda
ReplyDeleteHi Lynda, Merry Christmas to the Youngs.
ReplyDeleteI can't believe Francis is coming today but good. We hope to hear that you're back to playing. Moves are very hard on pianos. Glad Francis can fix it.
Peace be with you.
Hugs and blessings
Marge
Frances came==Amazing eh??-- Hugs Lynda
DeleteMerry Christmas Lynda, Fred, Lopez and Sushi. I hope you're enjoying a good day with Matt and your daughter-in-law. Wishing you a very happy and healthy New Year too. You will soon be settled in your new home, and wondering why you waited so long to move. Kudos to you Lynda for all the hard work preparing for the move, and for all the unpacking and making your home liveable. You truly are a WONDER WOMAN and my admiration for all you accomplish day after day knows no bounds. I hope you never stop blogging because it's one thing I look forward to each day.
ReplyDeleteMaureen from California
Merry Christmas, dear Lynda! Hope you, Himself, Looez and Sushi have had a beautiful day! Sending Ohio hugs and ice cream, too!
ReplyDeleteSending ice cream--the best ever!--Lynda
DeleteEmber got a rock for Christmas... a rubber rock. She loves it! Got to and from the kids' house safely and had a fine time with my co-inlaws, the kids and their foster-kiddo. He really is a great kid, and is more comfortable with the family group all the time. Merry Christmas, however and wherever you celebrate! May the Piano man be successful in restoring your instrument, because I know you get a lot of pleasure in the playing!
ReplyDeleteThe piano msn will be back on May-- He performed miracles tho on the piano today-- Happy Ember loves his rock!--So cute! Lynda
