Cold again! We both have been doing things to get ready for the big trip next week to Florida. Don has also been working on the computer on eBay end of year and taxes end of year.
He picked up Chinese dinners for dinner. Just before midnight we had some cheese and crackers and shrimp with some Champaign to toast in the New Year!
I got stew started in the crock pot for dinner tonight. Then decided I should have a list of things I need to pack so I didn't have to think and pack at the same time!
It was a bit warmer today and we got just a little snow.
It was minus 2 when we got up but still we went to Panera for our Wednesday bagel and then to Medard's and Walmart. I picked up a few Christmas things on half price at both places. Now have to get them put away! It got up to 7 degrees later but with a bright warm sun.
We had fish for dinner, again cleaning out the freezer.
We tried to watch a movie in the evening but couldn't find anything we liked. We started one, 30 minutes into the moves there was no plot so we decided not to spend any more time on it.
It was cold out and snowed on and off all day. I heard the roads were slick, we stayed home. We decided today was the day to put away Christmas - sadly. We have to get ready to head to Florida next week so no time to spare. We both worked hard on the job and got it done in good time. Until next year -----
More odds and ends to put away during the afternoon. We had chicken Kiev for dinner and watched the movie Rumer Has It which was on the silly range.
Good old house cleaning day and a day to put away more gifts. Overnight it snowed 2 - 3 inches. They started plowing our street and driveways about 2 AM, heard trucks and back-up alarms the rest of the night on and off. It was 38 degrees when we got up but slowly got colder all day.
I did some odd jobs in the afternoon and made something? from a frozen bag for dinner. It was actually OK. We watched the show "Don't Look Up". Was good, but could happen.

We went out for breakfast at HyVee. Good as always but cold out. Came home to read the Sunday newspaper. After a nap we went through our Christmas gifts to admire them again and put things away.
Got a text that our granddaughter tested positive for Covid so we will see how good our vaccinations and booster are to keep Covid away. We will deal with it if we need to.
It was just warm enough to grill the last steak for dinner that we had in the freezer.
