Ok, I've been a little busy.  Christmas, dogs, work, blah blah blah.  And the blog has been rattling around in my head and just when I wanted to work on it,  Judge Judy would come on and she starts yelling at someone and I just forget about everything.  I love that woman.  But she's not on today, I am all done with Christmas shopping, cards, etc., done working for two weeks, thank you very much, so here we are.  Together again.  I have some updates and I invite you to follow along.

Gary is done with the house officially and he has been busy listing it on the MLS and putting up signs.  While we have had a few calls, this is not the ideal time of year to sell a house.  Christmas interferes with that kind of purchase. And we refuse to put it on layaway. But it still keeps him busy everyday with watering plants, making sure it is secure, visiting with the neighbors.  So we are hoping that once the holidays are done, we will get some serious buyers to come around.  Or maybe you know someone.  Or you.  Come live here.

And Ted came for a week at Thanksgiving and of course he brought the Minnesota weather with him.  Always does.  But luckily he loves to golf as much as I do so we did a lot of that, made it to Sanibel, Naples and the surrounding area.  It was fun just to hang out together.

We had a Christmas party last weekend with our New Residents Club, we exchanged cookies, ate lots, drank martinis darling and had a White Elephant exchange.  Everyone wanted the Margaritaville glasses and mix including me but I ended up with a Chia pet so we will be following our Scooby Doo Chia now.  Can you say Chia, Cha Cha, Chia.  Its catchy.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year All.  I have a New Year's resolution and it has something to do with a blog. Or a chia pet.  We'll see.   Margaret
