Happy New Year! I hope it's a good one for all of my family and friends.

Chandler Eyecare was broken into last night. Whoever did it got lots of designer sunglasses. The alarm didn't go off but they saw a picture of one man on the camera. He was heavily disguised.

A messy robber

Sheri ran this morning, came home and showered and fixed a big breakfast as she normally does when she is here. Today it was French toast, eggs, and bacon. I helped by frying the bacon. She used the rest of her eggs in the French toast and then all of ours for the scrambled eggs. She wasn't going to fix eggs but Ian doesn't like French toast.

After breakfast and the kitchen was cleaned Sheri asked Ben to empty all of the garbages upsairs and told him to have everyone bring their sheets and towels down. She did the same downstairs.

Soon they were all packed up and ready to go.  I have been giving Ollie and Ziggie doggie treats everyday. Today was their last one.

Ollie seems to be more at ease around me, but he still barks at James. When Shipley was here she bit James when he tried to pet her. 

Michael made scrambled eggs for he and Joe using one of my stainless steel saucepans. Lots of egg residue which he cleaned off.

Michael and Joe left before Sheri and company.

Off they go with Michael driving

Joe's car, Clyde. Joe hates to drive.

Ziggie and Ollie

Goodbye, drive safe, and let us

know when you get home.

I didn't get a picture of Ben's car.

It's a Nissan Altima.

My laundry room is filled with sheets, towels, and blankets to wash. That's okay, I have all day.

I blogged, walked, did laundry and folded laundry, and paid bills: Vistana, TD Finance - James's truck is now paid off. Tithing and my Sam's Club card. Also Rocket Mortgage and my credit card. 

Much to James's satisfaction, this was another one of those nice weather to work outside in days.

We walked and listened to "Breaking the Rules."

I had the last of Michael's steaks for dinner and the mashed potatoes he left, which were delicious!

We were in bed by 9:11. One of my goals is to go to bed earlier and get up at 4.
