Then every day, I'll take one or two out. Often times I forget what I got so it's a surprise all over again. I'm the only one in the family that does this. Laura does that.

My mom connected with a gal she went to high school with who turns out to be her 4th cousin. Anyway, she sent mom some cool family history today. Homer was my great grand uncle and he made this wooden ornament 112 years ago. inscribed: “ God bless us all! Though I am but a little boy, I have a word to say. God bless us all both large and small, this happy Christmas day!” He was my grandma’s dad’s brother. lol. History truly amazes me. I was watching a program on house buying in Greece yesterday and there was a plaque in memory of Homer the Greek poet. Is this the same Homer Crystal? In my late dad's Italian ancestors the great painter Giovanni Bellini from Venice is a relative of ours. I hope Nate is recovering well. Stay safe and enjoy new year's eve.

DaniDanielle Posted December 31, 2020 #4989 Share Posted December 31, 2020 WOW can’t believe he is home. What restrictions does he have? My hip replacement was a pain, three days in the hospital and then two weeks in house therapy. Took forever to recuperate, but I am old!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare A&L_Ont Posted December 31, 2020 #4992 Share Posted December 31, 2020 So we had a small amount of excitement this morning caused by Lucy. She was gone for a couple days. She spent a few nights where she was born. She walked down the laneway with our neighbour on her return home and then continued on her way home. Out of nowhere came a fox and the two of them had a standoff. By the time he got his rifle Lucy was up a tree. The neighbour drove over and chased the fox away but didn’t get him. Needless to say she enjoyed the ride home. Sadly the foxes will have to go sooner than later. We did find out that Lucy was sleeping in their shop, on a blanket under their heater. No wonder she didn’t want to walk home yesterday in the pouring rain just above freezing. 😉 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare A&L_Ont Posted December 31, 2020 #4995 Share Posted December 31, 2020 Other little thing going on today, it’s my birthday. Food porn to come later. The coolest item was a Canadian National Park Pass from 1937. I actually found it a few months ago and got it, but Lisa wrapped it up and surprised me with it.😉 It’s made of brass and back in the day you would screw or wire it onto your car. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
