Buona Sera!

Buona Sera!

31 DEC CHRIS HAVING A GOOD DAY!

How are you doing on this the last day of 2022? We are good here in the Garden District.

I made my champagne deliveries early this morning in the Garden District, and on the Eastside. Most of the recipients contacted us to say thank you very much.

My Sous Chef prepared Black-eyed peas, ham, and cornbread for our traditional dinner. We also enjoyed a nice bottle of champagne with our meal. Here are a few pics.

We watched a lot of football today and we are still watching some. Chris watched with us, and he is watching a game right now. I am caring for him tonight. He is enjoying his supplemental drip as well.

My shorty is in the main house watching football as well. Welcome in the New Year and I will chat at you later. Stay safe.

Buona notte...Jessie and Elise 

Buongiorno!

Buongiorno!  Buona Sabato! La Notte di Capodanno!  How are you doing? We started the day off at 5:30am caring for Chris. Any plans for today? 

The coffee is a good Breakfast Blend, and a second cup will be enjoyed later this morning. It is a cold but clear morning here in Tucson.

I am caring for Chris today due to Sister Janye is off to spend time with her sister here in Tucson for the New Year. Alexa is awake and she said that today is going to be a very busy day to include tons of football games to watch. I asked her to play some "Smooth Jazz" for me today.

My Sous Chef will be preparing Black-eyed peas with cornbread for tonight's traditional New Year's Eve dinner. The bottle of champagne is chilling as well.

On New Year's Day it will be Chefs Day. I will be preparing an Oven baked Chicken and Rice dish that should be delicious. If some of the champagne is leftover, we may have a few (mimosa's) in the early morning of the New Year. "Ya Mon". If no champagne is leftover another bottle may be popped open. Woo-hoo!

When I put feet to the floor on New Year's Day, I will exit out of the backdoor and I will come in the front door. It is something that I always do. By going out the back door I am taken the old year out with me and when I come in the front door, I am bringing in the New Year. It is a personal tradition for me.

We saw the movie "I Wanna Dance with Somebody" at Park Mall yesterday and it was very good. It was about the life and times of Diva Whitney Houston.

Well, I had better get busy with Chris. Have a good Sabato and stay safe. I will chat at you later.

Today's Kwanzaa word is (kuumba) it means creativity.

Today's challenge word is (La Notte di Capodanno). Si, fidanzata today is (La Notte di Capodanno). 

Ciao...Jessie and Elise

My playmate prepared homemade pecan pancakes for dinner with eggs, sausages, and plenty of coffee. It was very good. We finished watching "Invitation" on Netflix with Chris. It was good and Chris enjoyed it.

Another mishap with the caregiver again today. Another soaking because she still failed to change his Texas catheter. Chris was soaked and so was his chair, sling and Roho seat. I just don't understand her at all.

I am caring for Chris tonight. Chris is resting and listening to Ragtime by Edi. It is very good. He is enjoying his supplemental drip. He is starting to feel a bit better. He still has no appetite. My shorty is in her office on her Mac.
