MARILYN Hope you enjoy your dinner and happy New Year to you I like your idea of not making a bunch of resolutions at the start of the year but starting a new one when you achieve one. I think I'm going to keep that in mind for myself

MARILYN I have to agree with the not sticking to them. I used to make resolutions and start the new year off gung-ho with it only to fizzle out in a few weeks.

MARILYN I've been trying to do the same this whole past year with getting rid of stuff. It's been slow going but it's mind boggling to see all the stuff I've accumulated throughout the years.

MARILYN Our white Christmas was pretty especially since it was less than 3 inches and didn't really disrupt anything. Good for you trying to say :"yes" to more opportunities. I am going to try to do the same and suck up the pain in my knees to enjoy getting out...

MARILYN Hope you have a good day and that the cousin gets a lot crossed your "to do" list. After so many high calorie foods over the past week we decided to have a salad for dinner with grilled chicken.

MARILYN I haven't heard of it either but best to be prepared. Our temperatures have been on the warmer side so I wouldn't be surprised if we get hit with freezing temperatures.

MARILYN I know of the Bookmobile but can't say it's anything that we had access to. Our library was within a bike ride when I was growing up and driving distance for all the years since. I always loved the library and never came home without an arm load of books. My...

MARILYN That does sound like a hard decision for your dad to make. I certainly can't offer any advice but I know your dad will make the right decision. It's nice that you have good memories of both men and I'm sure they are in Heaven.
