Some good news and about our Christmas.


The puzzle is about the “ Orient Express” a beautiful one 
LEGO for grandpa 
Watercolour for grandma 😂 
Working on that one.
The best present is a book of our grandchildren photos of the year sent by our son!

 Hello Friends !

First this morning, we went to my head IRM 9 o’clock.
All went well and coming home I received the results ( except the after effects of the car accident brain damage that still can be seen, all is ok! But I also had cervical vertebrae damages and the problem is certainly there neuralgias.
Well I am glad of the result, I am lucky!🍀 

On another note subject, we had a nice Christmas Eve with our daughter and son in law. I did not cook! For the first year and ordered our meal. I only did the first course a smoked salmon avocado bûche ( we prepare some food  essentially the cake in a  log 🪵 shape. I did the first course in that shape. I ordered the main course so I was not always in the kitchen and our daughter ordered the cake.

Christmas log! On TV to show you a chocolate one.

So I was free and enjoyed the evening with my family.
Before I used to cook during three days! But this time it was only the four of us. 
We played games on my SIL ‘s phone and laughed a lot till past midnight!
The next day I could see our grandchildren opening their presents in Dubai. Now I have to prepare my travel and stay this one will be long three weeks ! 
My plane ticket is taken and a “ big” health insurance. 
Medical care is very expensive there better anticipate 😂 
When you are agreeing.

We had a lot of presents, books, a new watercolour box, a beautiful puzzle, perfume…

This evening I am relaxing and this afternoon I did some watercolour to enjoy my afternoon and the good news!

         Tomorrow  Saturday  it’s our day outside  we will wear our winter coats, gloves and scarves ! It is -4 degrees Celsius ! And next week we will certainly have some snow ⛄️ for the end of the year.

I wish you a good weekend. I’ll come back to wish you Happy new year…

  1. Dear Catherine, I am glad that you had a good Christmas. I am also glad that you did not have to cook. I did not cook during the holiday either, because I was at M.'s and he cooked. It was a real gift from him.
    It snowed on December 24th, so our Christmas was white.
    It was good to read that the IRM result was ok. Good news!
    I wish you all the best! Éva

  4. Having a break from cooking is a real gift! I did a lot of the preparation for Christmas Eve but not for Christmas day.
    We were spared the coastal flooding that California got and had mild weather.
