I gave it up. Something had to go, because Christmas was no longer fun with everything I had to do. It at least cut one of the tasks out!

Exactly. πŸ˜„ But we’ll hit some pubs, maybe the casino. Mostly it’s just to get a break from the demands of real life. 😝

My husband and I are escaping to Columbus for a couple of days. Because that’s how exciting our lives are.

And wow, such breathtaking scenery on the drive…

You’re welcome and thank you! I’m working on a couple things. I’ve been taking care of my mom so less time for things, but such is life. 😁
