Last Day of 2022

I went to church this morning [worship service was today instead of tomorrow], and the children played their bells.  So adorable and a great way to ring out the old year and ring in the new! 

Afterwards we went to Olive Garden for lunch - thank you Brandon, for the Christmas Gift Card. We're home now and relaxing.  No plans for going out to celebrate.  We'll watch the crystal ball drop in Times Square on TV.

I went through all my 2022 posts in preparation for writing 'The Year in Review' post.  It was a good year with much to be thankful for.

The rest of my day will be spent going through three new books [and maybe squeezing in a nap since it feels like Sunday].  The J.L. Hudson book I pre-ordered finally arrived and it's a BIG one - weighs about 7 lbs.  Today's a great day for browsing through it.

And two charcuterie books.  I went to a Hallmark store right before Christmas to buy a card and came out with two books!  Wonder if there's a tea-themed charuterie tray/board?

While I was finishing up this post my hubby brought the mail into my office.  I treated myself to a knee massager that had high reviews and a 60-day money back guarantee, and it arrived today. Will let you know if it works in case anyone out there in 'blog land' has knee issues like me.

Now I'm off to make myself a cup of tea to sip while browsing my books.  I wish you all a happy and safe New Year's Eve!  I'll be back in 2023!
