Lemons anyone?

My  family’s Christmas Dinner included lemonade made by my daughter Lauren. She used just 2 and 1/2 lemons from my lemon tree to make a gallon of it and it was strong juicy lemonade. The lemons on this tree are so big and juicy, I don’t believe the average person has ever seen such huge lemons.

The other amazing thing about these lemons is that they were picked at Christmas.  Wish my folks were around to see them. My Christmas Dinner included by sisters, Fran Ellisor and Jeannie Markovich and my cousin Margaret Yeager, of course. Missing was my daughter Elektra Rose and my sister Bonnie Hinrichs and my nephews and nieces who live as far away as Hawaii and Sugar Land.

Elektra was here for a couple of days…

Of course, she worked most of the time using skype was nice to see her though and she bought me dinner a couple of times in addition to going shopping for a little while. She will be back for Christmas with Lauren and we will go to San Antonio to celebrate with their grandmother who’s condition is stable for the moment.

Back to San Antonio once again

Decided to go visit my mother in law Mary, only to discover that the doctor had signed her out of skilled nursing care. So I spend the last three days trying to get everything together for her to return to her apartment with an aide. Nightmare time. I will head back up there on Friday to make sure everything is ready for her to move home on Saturday and stay for 2 or 3 days to make sure she is ready for this.
