Countdown to Christmas
Monday – Inge invited TFC’s International Office staff to her house for lunch.
It was also a good time for us to see her new house.
Dessert
A few of her Christmas decorations.
Each of the office girls was able to attend: Susan, Jane, Chris, Connie, Inge, and Lynn.
This is what they look like after a long day at work.
Depending on the day, they may look like this.
Everyone who was at the meal: Jay, Susan, Chris, Jane, Connie, Inge, Peg, Lynn, Bunny, Cerwin. (Scott and Mike were not able to attend.)
They added me to the mix while Inge took the photo. I work for the International Office – but out of our home.
On the way home, I had to wait in our town square while a Christmas light was changed.
Tuesday we labeled and mailed the January issue of Highway News and Good News.
Helpers this month were Harold & Lois Keller and Arlene & John Heisey.
During coffee break we enjoyed Christmas cookies from Lois Keller. They were delicious. Thanks, Lois.

Wednesday was overtaken with my car accident.
Thursday was a day of recovery and rest.

I posted a bit about Friday in the previous post. In the evening Roy and Deb helped us prepare the garage for Christmas supper on Sunday and lunch on Monday.
They had to take some things to Jere and Kristen’s house before coming here, so brought Jana along to help.
Deb brought cookies for dessert.
That means all I had to do today was make several batches of mocha punch mix, do laundry, and finish some light cleaning.
~~~
It will be more laid-back on my part – people may find dust and there are fewer decorations in the garage – but I’m ready for Christmas Day!
I guess that’s a good thing, because it will be here in two hours and a few minutes – whether I am ready or not.

Physically there are not a lot of changes from yesterday – except that my black and blue bruises are turning yellow, and I sense a bit more strength and healing. Your prayers encourage me.
