I was over at Regina's Family Seasons and she had tagged everyone to do this Christmas meme
who reads her blog!

Hey there grams,
Thanks for doing this! I pray that you and yours are nice warm and safe!
Blessings,
Regina
Grams,
This is a lovely post. I may do the meme tomorrow. I'll see how the time goes and if I can see. I have an eye appointment in the morning and it is a full exam, which means that he will dilate my pupils, which I literally hate.
I see you are online, so am guessing you haven't lost power. I saw on the news where there are so many people without any heat or lights. I will keep you in my prayers.
Blessings,
Mary
I enjoyed reading this.
My answers would be about the same. Thanks for letting us in on your Christmas season. l hope you all are keeping warm and that your electricity stays on. Julie in Illinois has had it bad too just like you guys. I talked to my granddaughter yesterday and she said they were all wrapped up in blankets (and here it was almost 80) Crazy..'Sandy
Good Morning Grams,
I'm just dropping by to check in on you. I hope things are improving up there in KC. I seen some pictures of it on The Weather Channel last night. It looked bad. They said that millions of people were without power in Missouri, Kansas, and Oklahoma and that it may be up to 10 days before electricity is restored. Hubby shut down in Cabool, MO last night and is on his way now up to Meta, Mo. I hope he doesn't run into any of that Ice. It was 73 degrees here yesterday afternoon and when I first got on the computer this morning around 4:45a.m. it was 53 degrees. It's down to 45 degrees. We had some rain overnight as well. They say we may even see some snow on Saturday. I'll believe it when I see it tho. Well, take care my friend and have a great Wednesday. May God Bless You and Yours. Stay inside and stay warm.
Love & Hugs,
Karen H.
So glad you have POWER !! I enjoyed reading your meme and I want to do it one day this or next week.
Happy day, bj
Am so glad you still have power. We never lost power either and the kids are back at school today. Guess we didn't get the big storm we were suppose to.
Love your answer for #13.
But, I do like egg nog. Of course my preference would be to spice it up a little with some Southern Comfort, but those days of liquor are long gone past me....can't even smell the stuff now with all the heart meds. LOL ---it's probably best for me anyway, right?
I hafta agree with you on buying for son-in-laws...they are difficult to be sure.
I still can't seem to get the hang of copying the meme. My answers would be a copy of your though..you know great minds think a like.
I just came back to check on you.
I thought for sure your favorite movie would have been "The Christmas Story"! Hope you guys are still warm, dry and safe.
Regina
This was a fun meme! I enjoyed your answers.
How wonderful that you never lost power!!
That was fun reading your answers. Maybe I'll try it later.
Nan
Thanks for stopping by. I arrived safely. I'll be going the other way day after tomorrow. It is supposed to get cold after the rain. I should be home again before it does. I will enjoy tomorrow with my daughter because it will be the last time for just the two of us for a while. Christmas will be the whole family. I'm glad you still have power.
Mama Bear.
I just put this meme on my blog this morning. I have seen it on several blogs and grabbed it and can't remember from whom. Why are the men so hard to buy for? Is it because they are men or because of their age. Hubby's no problem....he buys his own. LOL
