Whoaa....it's sooo cold here!   Lots of cancellations, including school, so we had Liam and Connor today.   The sun is shining brightly, but it's BITTER out there!

The boys had fun playing with their new costumes.    Anne's friend bought them several different ones after Halloween for $1 apiece (what a deal) and they had a ball playing dress-up.   I cracked up when I saw them sitting on the steps "pretending" they were in a jet and flying.   I told them I would be really scared if my pilots looked like that and I wondered what their pilot uncles would think?   HA.....gotta love the imagination of these little ones.

Scary pilots flying their jet

Spent time with phone calls between the doctor, nursing home, hospital, etc.   Dad is now in the swing unit of the hospital where he will be getting dressed, eating in the dining room and doing some therapy.    We are going to visit him tomorrow.   Doctor said his lungs sound a little better.   Just the thought of taking him out in this dreadful weather.....well, let's hope it warms up SOON!

After lunch and naps, Patrick picked the boys up and Mark and I went to the Red Cross to donate blood (1st time for me).    Stopped and got a few groceries and then home cozy home!

Mark's Mom seems chipper and upbeat when we talk to her - she was given a list of restrictions when she left the hospital, so hopefully, she'll relax and take it easy.   The big family Christmas is coming up this Saturday night - want to make this as easy as possible for her!!!

Our neighbor Marty came home from the hospital this afternoon - yeah!    He had quite a time - a complicated gall bladder removal, but he's on the mend and know his kids will be giving him lots of TLC, along with neighbors and friends!
