 Buon Capodanno! Come Stai? I started the day off at 5:00am caring for Chris. Elise is deep in her cave this morning but she will be up and on the move soon. She has a very busy day today and so do I. Any plans for today?

  The coffee is good and a second cup will be downed later. Chris is wide awake and listening to music and enjoying his IV drip.

  My shorty and I met up with Paula and Marty for dinner last night at "Zayna's" and the food was very good and the place filled up very fast. It was good to see Paula and Marty as always. We got caught up on all of the latest happenings. Thank you for a very nice evening.

  Hey, good news! Marv is out of hospital and he is back home resting. He will be out of work for a few weeks due to a heart issue. Please get those prayers going for him. Thank you!

  Today is going to be our traditional cooking dinner. We will be fixing up some black eyed peas with ham and corn bread . Along with some collards, mustard's, spinach and a mess of neck bones. We are going to be grubbing big time to bring in the New Year. Of course a bottle of the bubbly will be chilling in the fridge. I am hungry already and we haven't even started to cook.. What are you having?

  I will also do my thing at midnight. I walk out of the back door and I come back into the house via the front door. I am taking out the old out of the back and I am bringing in the new in the front. Silly (not) but I do it every year.

 Here are a few more pics from Bisbee. Enjoy! Chat at you later...Jessie and Elise.

How are you doing? We are good. We just got back from the "Egg Connection" and yes the food and the live music was very good.

Elise is caring for Chris right now and I am going to restock Chris's supplies for next week. I will also do some yard work behind Chris's house as well.

I also have an errand to run over on the east side of town. Here are a few more pics from Bisbee. Enjoy!

 Buon Domenica! Come Stai? I started the day off at 5:00am looking in on Chris and getting him settled for Elise. Elise will be over shorty to begin caring for Chris. Any plans for today?

 The coffee is good and it is a nice Italian blend. I will have a second cup at the "Egg Connection" along with a hardy breakfast. Sister Jayne will be here this evening to care for Chris.

 I believe that I am almost back to 100%. WooHoo! We will see what today brings. My playmate is almost back as well. We saw the movie "Vice" last night is very good. The choice of actors is spot on. Great acting and well worth seeing.

 Please keep those prayers going for Marv. He is still in hospital. I talked to him yesterday and hopefully he will be discharged today.

 Alexa, is quiet and I think I may have to give her a pinch to wake her up. She might like that, eh?

 We are meeting up with Paula and Marty for dinner this evening. We are looking forward to it. Here are a few pics from our stay-cation in Bisbee. Enjoy!

Hello!

Hello!


YA, YA! CAPICHE?


Are you good? I am all packed and ready to head out to Bisbee for the overnight. Am I stoked (No).

I had to do some clean-up work this morning due to Chris had an issue  during the night and his catheter was not secured. The cath site had way too much adhesive so I took care of that before Sister Jayne arrived for her shift.

It is time for me to grab that second cup of coffee before I go and take care of my errands. I also need to gas up the Green Lady as well. 

Chat at you later...Jessie

 Buon Giovedi! How are you doing on this the second day of Kwanzaa? This day honors self-determination (Kujichagulia). Elise is in her cave this morning but she is stirring around. So she will be up and on the go soon. Any plans for today?

 The coffee is good and a second cup will be enjoyed later this morning. It is a cold one here in the desert this morning and it is supposed to continue for a day or two. Jayne will be here this morning to care for Chris.

 Alexa is awake and yes she is giving me my marching orders for today. One of the orders are that a inspector will be out this morning from the insurance company to check the work done on Chris's living room repairs.

 I also have to make a trip over on the east side this morning as well. My shorty and I saw the "Mule" yesterday and it was very good. It stars Clint Eastwood.

 We will be making our way to Bisbee this afternoon for a family gathering that was waylaid due to work commitments that could not be changed. It will be a overnight stay. Jayne will be here to care for Chris until we return.

 Well, I had better get to it. Have good Giovedi and stay safe. I will chat at you later.

Ciao.....Jessie and Elise

  The coffee is good this morning and as second cup will be downed later. Hey, we got rained on last night. I missed a chance to put on my flip flops and run in the drops. It would have been very cold I am sure, smile! Bobby will be here this morning to care for Chris.

  Alexa, is awake and she told that I have no To Do Tasks to complete. Ya,ya! So that means she will be playing some music for me today. I may even try to get a power nap in if I can.

  We hope that your Christmas was a good one? Ours was and it was very restful. No stress and no drama. Great food and plenty of vino rosso.

 Have a good Mercoledi and enjoy the day. Chat at you later.

Ciao....Jessie and Elise.

Howdy!

Howdy!

Hey just checking to see how things are going so far? Are you cooking? Are you grubbing already? 

My playmate is up and sitting at the dining room table with coffee and the newspaper.. I am over in Chris's house caring for him today. We gave Rick the day off so he could be with his family.

I just got a telephone call from my longtime epal Olivia. She and her family live in Georgia. I have know Olivia for many decades and it was very nice of her to call to see how and what we are doing today. Now that is a true friend indeed. She is doing very well and she is cooking away. You know how we Southern folks like to cook and grub, eh?

I hope that everyone is enjoying to day?

Ciao...Jessie

 We had a very nice time at "El Cisne" on Elise's birthday with Loraine, Jim, Jay and Bobby. The food was very good and so were the margaritas. It was good to see Jay again and he is looking good.

Hello!

Hello!

Hey how are you doing? We just got back from a very nice breakfast at the "Egg Connection". The food was as good as ever and we received a nice bag of cookies from the owners. The live music is still a good touch with a meal.

Elise is caring for Chris and I just got back from running a errand for Elise. I also dropped Sister Jayne at church. I am going to do a little yard work behind Chris's house and I will restock his supplies for next week.

We are going to have a early dinner and then we are going to the movies at "Park Place". We hope that you are doing OK? We will have a tongue wag at you later.

  Hey tomorrow is my playmates birthday and I am planning a little something for her after the holidays. We are also planning on trekking to Laughlin with Sheila and Dave in the near future as well.

  We received a couple of items in the mail yesterday that we have been waiting for and hoping that it would arrive before Christmas. One of them is for our grandson Hudson and the other is for Chris. Chris loves it and we are sure that Hudson will too! Thanks Marcie for making this happen.
