It has been a whirlwind. We have had all of our kids out. They have some time off which is great. Kids and dogs have occupied our house, just like old times.
Work at the resort is busy. It has snowed quite a bit, lately we have had a melt which means ice.
My brother-in-law Kurt had a heart attack a few days ago and is in the hospital in Calgary. My sister Deb and I made the trip in. He seems good. He is in good shape and very strong. He will have to be on medication and eat only lettuce for awhile. It’s the shits, but better than the alternative.
I picked up a rack of lamb in Calgary for Lisa and I for our New Year’s Dinner. All the kids will be at parties. It will be just us and the dogs. We will probably be in bed by 9.
Wishing everyone the best this holiday season.

Great post. I’m completely unable to prepare fresh veg with my one hand and have had to have ready meals delivered which isn’t as good, filling or as healthy! My potatoes always sprout be the way – I keep them in the dark in the garage…

Hi Carol, I can imagine you are having trouble doing a lot of things with only one hand. The good thing is pinned bones usually heal pretty fast. Our potatoes are kept in the dark cellar and also sprout. The red ones sprout early. I invited Jack for Christmas dinner. If you recall he is the young man from the UK who I took hiking in the fall. Such a nice fellow and he fit in perfectly, being about the same age as my kids and a hearty eater. Wishing you fast healing and a Happy New Year!
