This Christmas David and I decided to stay home. No hours spent searching for airline tickets. No hours spent trying to pack. No hassles with limos, airport crowds, or hotel rooms. It was a good decision.
Our son, Jared, called a few weeks before the holiday to announce that he was going to come home for the holidays. He planned to stay a week. That was perfect!
 Worth a 1,000 Words!

| That's MY son! That's MY Dad!

Therapy can be fun! Well . . . Sometimes.
If David can't be behind the wheel of a race car,
this is next best. With his unsteady hand though,
I think Jared has the advantage.

Okay, Mom!
Enough pictures, already!

You said you wanted ONE more picture. Will this do?
Okay, so maybe I did take a LOT of pictures. But, Jared lives in
Santa Cruz, California and we don't get to see him all that much.
So, I DID take a lot of pictures!
It was a nice Christmas. Jared helped out a lot with some little
things around the house - and some big things, too. My garage
looks a lot better.
We also went car shopping together. Time to upgrade the wheels.
We went out to dinner a few times and brought food in. AND,
I made a turkey dinner with all trimmings for Christmas Day.

ESCAPING Into the NEW YEAR 2007 |
They say to bring in the new and . . . oops, I think they meant "RING."
Too late!
Since I thought the saying went to "BRING" in the new, I did! I brought a new car into to my life and into my driveway. A Ford ESCAPE!
It's Tungsten Gray - so pretty!
AND . . . here it
is.
It was sad to see my TRIBUTE go.
I had it for six years and it never
gave me any trouble, but it was time to smell new leather. Nothing like
a new car smell!
So, farewell to my TRIBUTE.
I hope someone else will
love it as much as I did.
I KNOW THEY WILL!
