I'm sorry your mom had to go to the hospital on Christmas. It doesn't get much worse than that but I'm glad she made it through surgery and hoping things only get better now! That's the exact same calendar my partner and daughter got for me from our Dollar Tree... small world! BTW pepitas are pumpkin seeds, which are very healthy.

Diana, Many contined prayers for your Mom! And your Dad too! I hope I get to find that shampoo at my DT! Some shampoos are making my hair fall out! I hope I remember to look for it! So happy to see your still decluttering, your so good at it. I want to start in January! Me too, had a tiny Christmas, I loved it! 2 jars of instant coffee, new sneakers, and 2 tops from Temu, and cash! Thank God it wasn't anymore than this. I want to get rid of stuff! I am glad your feeling better! 🙏

Even after decluttering I still have stuff and don't need anything else. 😂 I have a place to store new socks and I keep having to throw the older ones away. Definitely do not use Tresseme shampoo as I think there have been lawsuits or something about hair falling out. I used to coupon for it and I heard that and got rid of all of it lol 😝

She is off somedays, it's so hard to deal with. Her memory is not good! But no Nursing home for her yet. I love your Beautiful Tree, it looks great! Your doing such a great job decluttering. I'd like to start in Jan. I hope I can do it and stick with it. I'm so sick of my old stuff. I hope you had a very nice Christmas Day!

@@marycesarini1724 hey!! Thx for checking in. So mom got sent back to the hospital yesterday and they did surgery today and this was something they should have taken care of the first time she was in there. She was there 2 weeks and I cannot understand why they didn't fix this issue. So annoying. She has suffered all these weeks bc they didn't go ahead and do it then. Anyway most of her confusion seems to have cleared up!!! Yay! My sister is with her and she says mostly she's making sense. So that's really good news. And she was very sick and was confused this AM so it sounds like she's improving.

It helps when I'm distracted. (We have a couple event- extended family events- Thanksgiving today, and next weekend my middle son is getting married. Also, we're raking leaves this time of year.) Anyway, we have the two cats. Maybe I already told you this. A couple weeks ago, my husband opened the back door, which we hadn't done since Sam died, and Loki ran back there, looked around, and did a sorrowful meow. He's never been without Sam. They both want lots of attention. How are you doing? I've been thinking about you and wondering if it's gotten easier for you.
