December 31, 2016

Well, this is it, the last day of 2016.  December has been such a sad month, with so many people passing away.  It was a quiet day here, we went shopping this morning and it was cold, cloudy and rained a bit.  It's supposed to snow, but so far, none has showed up.  I started taking down the Christmas stuff, I usually don't take the tree down until the 1st, but all the ornaments are off, just need to take the tree apart.  Maybe I'll light it up one more time tonight and dismantle it tomorrow. I still need to go through the boxes from the attic and see what's there, I didn't look in them all, it got too cold! 

John is working on the old dodge again, he is making the exhaust pipe today.  Andy has a muffler that we are going to run over and get, they don't make one with a small enough opening to fit the size pipe that matches where it comes out. 

I read and slept a lot today, I'm so tired!  Still having troubles with my sugar levels, I started taking metformin at night again, but levels are still higher than I would like them to be.  Such a hard disease to have!  Wish they could find a cure.  It's been hard not to eat all the junk that's around this time of the year.  People bring us food and I have broken down and eaten some a couple times.  I did great through Thanksgiving, but Christmas whipped me!

We had tamales and red chili for supper, YUMM!  I ate only the meat filling in mine, no masa to add carbs!  I plugged the tree in one last time for the year, I love the lights and I love trees!

We kept hearing booms all day today, never could figure out what it was.  About the time we went to bed there were some, but didn't hear them at midnight.
