Vickie's Blog - December 8, 2014

Good morning, I hope everyone is having a nice day. I am so ready for this weather to be either hot or cold. Hot one day and cooler the next just isn’t working for me. Ok, Mother Nature, make up your mind; it is December so cold weather would be the correct choice. A little snow around Christmas would be perfect as Christmas is only 3 weeks away.

November has ended and December has begun for the year 2014. Our day of Thanksgiving is over but may we always be thankful for the blessing God has given us. The sun comes up, clouds gather, wind blows, flowers grow and wilt, people come into our lives, people may stay for a while and then leave. These are just some of the things we take for granted.

Life is high gear for most everyone but me. I am still in slow motion. While I was having back problems, I was using a walker and my grandson, Austin, told me I needed a sticker. When I ask him what kind of sticker, he said handicap because I was on a walker and I would be able to park closer to the stores. That boy is trying to make me old before my time (I think old age may have just caught up with me).

Until next week!! I would enjoy hearing from anyone else on gardening tips or your favorite recipes. Email tips to info@shelbycountytoday.com(Attn: Vickie's This and That.)
