I have to come up with something new that I want for Christmas. All year long I have said that the only thing I want for Christmas is for my DH to get hearing aids. He is very stubborn, and will only do things on his own timeline. Over the last several months our sons have been gently telling him to get hearing aids. Even our 15 year old grandson, who has worn hearing aids since he was 3, has been after him. Third week in November he decided it was time. He has them now, and though not perfect, things are a lot better. He's going through quite an adjustment period, but things are looking up! Now to decide....what do I want??

Usually Christmas is just my husband and myself as all the kids live in diffeent states and have their own family Christmas. I did tell my kids that IF they were going to get me something to check cross stitch sites for Prairie Schooler Santa Claus patterns and send me one booklet each. Teased my husband that diamonds and precious jewels come from South Africa and there may be a shortage of them with the new Covid variance being out there...of course I was joking about diamonds. I'd settle for 3 or 4 20lb bags of bird seed so I can watch my feathered friends this winter. I have enough quilting items to last 10 years!

We just found out that hubby has 2 extra paid for days off for the holiday. Will probably drive up to St Augustine and spend the night. Last time we walked up the lighthouse stairs and this time will not be doing that, lol, so will go to the Fort there and explore. We love a restaurant up there, where they have the best black beans and rice. Hey, I will have to buy some new clothes for the trip. Well that's my Christmas gifts.
