Happy New Year 2023!

Close the door on 2022 and hello to 2023!

Had a great Christmas with the kids. Only downside was my Amazon gift order didn't show up until after Christmas due to the weather!!  Made from scratch cinnamon rolls, prime rib, hashbrown casserole, spinach dip, and pumpkin dump cake for the holiday. Sent home leftover care packages for each of the boys. 

We all enjoyed our gifts with the exception that the workboots ordered for Sam were too big. Had never returned an item to Amazon and just have to say it was eazy peazy! Besides standing in line at the local shipping drop off shop for 30 minutes, processing the return went quick.  Handed over the package to the clerk, who wrapped it and processed my return quickly, with no charge for return mail. My refund showed up the next day, which really surprised me.

Took a few days off after the holiday to unwind. December 27th (which was actually my one year mark at my duplex) packed away all the decorations, cleaned the living room, and even made pillow covers out of an old Goodwill blanket, which match nicely with the quilts from Lynn that hang over each couch. So comfy!!

New Year's Eve was fairly quiet.  We did go out on the town but returned home before midnight.  Spent New Year's Day trying to beat my boredom by searching Pinterest and YouTube for a DIY cut your hair in a long bob style tutorial. Ended up rubberbanding my hair into a ponytail and chopping a couple inches off to create the style. It's passable but it needs a little, shall we say, refining so a visit to hair goddess Abbie will be in my near future!

Happy New Year's everyone!
