Sunday, January 4

Because church services were cancelled, we had a relaxing morning – enjoying coffee, pastry…

…and an egg, spinach, and sausage casserole.

Our plans were to go to see Hannah’s apartment in the afternoon.

I went outside a bit early to get a few more snow pictures.

We traveled over some pretty, snow-covered roads during our seventeen-mile drive to where Hannah lives. (She lives in the apartment on the right. That’s her car next to the building.)

She moved here the day after Christmas.

The view from her dining room window.

She loves having her own place.

Diane and Hannah in her kitchen.

I loved Hannah’s creativity in decorating – especially making a stovepipe cover look like a hat.

Elizabeth and Diane going through the things Elizabeth chose for Hannah – from Grandma High’s things a few nights earlier.

She got sheets, glassware, Tupperware, and a bread tray.

Opening a gift from her sister Abby – from Pennsylvania.

A nice, warm hoodie.

Almost ready for a 1:00 PM lunch.

Ingredients for a taco salad

She also invited her landlady – Gail – to come for lunch.

Gail lives in the main part of the house. They have a connecting door between their apartments – with a doorbell.

Gail and Hannah are good friends. Gail’s children are grown, so she has been renting this side of the house for several years. She volunteers at Restore where Hannah is a manager. That is how Hannah learned that this apartment was available.

Enjoying lunch.

Gail brought dessert – an ice box cake.

Getting ready to play Now-You-Have-It-Now-You-Don’t.

After that game we played several hands of Scum.

It is great for us to know that Hannah has found a nice place with a good landlady.

We went to evening church in Brunswick.
