Monday - December 18 and Tuesday, the 19th

Started the day again with very dreary conditions, misty rain and then fog....ugh!     We stopped at Cracker Barrel in Berea, KY for breakfast and kept on.....what a treat to see bright sunshine and blue skies in eastern TN and all the way to Lake James.
Great to be here with Philip, Annette, Luke and Maeve......we unpacked, settled in, had a glass of wine and some snacks followed by euchre which Philip and I won.   I started feeling funny about this time....long story short, I have some sort of stomach issue or food-related illness.     There are at least 15 other family members who became sick Sunday/Monday after our family Christmas dinner Saturday night.   We'll probably never know just what caused this, but not fun and thankful it appears to be a 24-hour bug.

I slept off and on today, had sprite and crackers nearby and finally late this afternoon, felt strong enough to take a shower and say "hello" to the others.

Mark and I had planned to be at Blair's Christmas caroling party at her pre school today followed by milk and cookies.    That didn't happen!   Just hope 'n pray no one else gets this!

It was 72 here today and I spent the day in bed....arghhh!    Anyway, big change coming tomorrow and next few days with lots of rain and much colder temps.
