A few more days and Christmas will be gone, again

We got freezing drizzle off and on yesterday and possibility of snow today.  Some areas around us looks like there is a large path of poor traveling conditions,  Just glad I will be home.  The airports are a rat race according to the news.006This is Spunky after getting a present from his best friend.  I was picking the plastic up that it was in, you can see it on the floor around him. While he was opening it, I tried to keep picking up bits of wrapping. I was fine until I got up around his head and then he would go real still and I knew he was saying, “this is mine and do not try to take it.”  We enjoy him so much.  Our lady mail carrier brought a package  up one day last week and she saw  MY COUCH CUSHIONS made into a  RAMP FOR HIM and she said “when I die I want to come back to your house as  a dog.”  She helped pick me up  the day I fell on the concrete.  Seems she has been our mail carrier forever.  I can tell every time she has a substitute.  I feel better today and I have to go in for blood work the first week in January and will try to get an appointment the same day, to see the Doctor. I just don’t want to have a bunch of tests and run up a big bill and him tell me what I think I know, and that is that it is age related and there is nothing to be  done.  I am just starting to use my camera but I hate having to go on line every time I want to know something. I am doing a lot of guess work and also there are menus every time I go to a different settings.

You should get the tests at the end of the year when your deductible is met!
Your post office carrier is a winner too.
Disco will do the same thing when you are near his head when he has a special treat - I wonder if he things of how many times we have stole the treat from him! lol
NONE!
MERRY CHRISTMAS.

Lucy that is so sweet Spunky with
his toy. He is holding it down
and makes sure no body takes it
from him. That is a real good picture.

We are going to have rainy weather
tomorrow and it is going to turn
cold. Hope your blood work turns
out OK. I have been eating everything that is not good for
me during the Holidays. I will have to get my act together after
Christmas.
