Happy Hoemaker 2025-11-17

 Good morning

Last weekend went to see mom, my aunt who is also in hospice , had supper with some cousins, was a nice time.  Roads were yucky for our regular 3 hour ride back (took 3:30 instead)... 5 cars in the ditch and 1 van jacknife.

 Had a few appointments but now this week will be easier.

Let's join Sandra at Diary of a Stay at Home Mom . ,

    2. Hello dear Lucie!
      Love all the sweet family pics. :)
      The comment about your Mom recognizing you choked me up, as I remember when those special moments would happen with my MIL I was so close to.
      Sounds like you're already getting the "fun" weather up there. Just a matter of time until we're dealing with the white stuff here too. Your funny is perfect and true! Lol Blessings on your week ahead. xo

    3. LOVE your funny dear Lucie - no snow here yet, but next month I'm sure. So sweet that your mom recognized you for a even a minute. Christmas will be here before we know it so I too am trying to get ahead of it! Have a GREAT week.
