A year ago I had my gallbladder out. It was the worst thing I have had. I would have much rather had a c-section then to have had the attacks. The surgery was simple, I had it on a Wed. and was back at work on the following Monday.
For the last couple of months I have felt a bulge on the right side of my upper stomach. Finally last Friday it went to see Dr Shamo. He asked what had brought me in and I said I had a lump in my stomach and it better not be a baby ( I am almost 51, with almost 12 Grandchildren, for Pete sakes)! Dr. Shamo ask if it was moving? Is it kicking? No I answered! Well it's not a baby then, was his reply. He felt the lump and said he thought it was a hernia, so he sent me for a CT scan. Sure enough that what it is said the results. So on the 21 of this month off I go.
I have only had three c-section and all of a sudden two surgery in the past year. I have had enough of this all ready.

Annual Christmas Cookie Party Exchange
Last night we had our annaual Christmas Cookie Exchange Party. This has been a tradition for about 12 year. The party is held a one of the friends houses and the hostess serves a wonderful meal. We enjoy the evening and exchange gifts along with the cookie exchange. Each friend brings a basket or container to be exchange with the other friends. The basket exchange has been conducted in serval different manners. This year each basket is assigned a number and then we rolled a dice to see what number. Five friends, five numbers, who evered rolled a number other then there own received the basket with that assigned number. It is reall fun to see what everyone will bring. The exchange is not limited to just cookies, this year the were pies, muffins, bannana nut bread and cookies. This is a really fun way to get treats for the company coming for th holiday.
A BIG THANKS to Deb Jenkins for a wonderful turkey dinner with the fixins. THANKS for all the fun.
Love, you guys

This the Season
You know I like many other adults would love to feel the feeling of being a little child who just cannot wait for Santa to arrive. With the magic of all there is to Christmas time, the present we cannot wait to find under the tree, the smell of all of baking from the kitchen and the carols being sung and played every where you turn. The feeling of secretes of what presents you have for your loved ones.
And most of all the waiting all night on Christmas Eve to hear some sound of the bells on the Santa sleigh.
It is truly a magical time of the year.
One of the best things is to look at the joy in the children's eyes. I have been watching that twinkle of over thirty years now. First in my children's and now in the grandchildren.
Here's to the meromiers.
