Christmas 2021

Alison’s Christmas 2021 Visit Alison arrived on December 23 at 11 am, I did not have to wait too long before picking her up. We spent Christmas Eve hanging out and visited Mom/Grams every day, got Her bed situation straightened out. On Christmas, opened presents, UGA cup and sticker for me, $500 for TV for Alison. Had a beautiful breakfast and Roast Beef and Yorkshire Pudding meal. On Sunday, Alison went to meet Emily in Walnut Creek for lunch. I hung out here, it has been raining until today also very cold, in the forties. On Monday, Alison prepped Roast Beef for Cottage Pie which we will have on Thursday for dinner and Crème Brûlée for dessert. I am in awe of Alison, she is so skilled in the kitchen with tools and meal prep. She also made wontons. Today, we will make meatballs in the air fryer. Jamee could not train today. Also, have to go to Target and get Alison her booster. Wednesday training with Jamee and Alison haircut with Michelle. Fondue at Sloane’s on Wednesday.
