DAY 1 ~ BLOGMAS 2017 ~COUNTDOWN SCHEDULE
For the last several years I have done “BLOGMAS” over at Diary of a Stay at Home Mom. This year I decided to do BLOGMAS, but with my own list.
Unfortunately the surgery I should have had months ago is now scheduled 5 days from now. So, a few categories will be a little off this year, but I’m going to do them anyway. Christmas will be quiet for us this year, but one the best days of the year for us.
These are things that I begin right after Thanksgiving, but I thought it was the best prompt for today. I almost feel guilty that almost ALL of them are accomplished. With the surgery though I HAVE to be ready way ahead of time! As for this year’s prompt I do both homemade and store bought depending on what someone wants and/or needs.

FLASHBACK FRIDAY
I am playing along with Martha at Seaside Simplicity with the meme Flashback Friday. Come join in on the fun and link up your photo.
That’s my KID brother sitting there with me, by 6 1/2 years. It was that awkward age where he actually looked older than me and I was still getting carded. In fact I got carded for another 12 or so years after this picture.
