Christmas came on Monday…

my BS group gathered for lunch, a visit, and gift exchange…

we had a great time;-)…

everyone chose what they wanted for lunch and a few of the group picked up the order… we gathered around the dining room table and visited as we enjoyed our meal…

back in the living room we had cookies and coffee, and then shared our goodies;-)…

I am always amazed at the wonderful items that we each find or make for one other… none of us really need anything so it is fun to produce little things to share…

and usually there are donations to favourite charities… mine, this year was to Made with Love, which is helping feed the hungry here in the city…

we usually end with a group photo… technology tried to beat me, but in the end we got a few great pictures;-)…

bills…

seems like there have been a lot of bills that need to be paid lately…

one from the accounting folk who did my taxes… a big one for the taxes… thought we had it figured out and had the right amount being withheld to cover the taxes… not so much… maybe next year…

got my credit card statement and was surprised a bit by how much the exchange turned out to be on purchases in New York… 

spoke with the new cleaning people today and the good news is that I shouldn’t have to give them any more money until August… looking forward to seeing how the house will look when they are done…

have also had the other type of bills – money…

still have some American cash… haven’t quite decided what to do with it… maybe I should plan another trip over the border, lol…

always have some money in my purse because I don’t want to be caught without any cash on me if I need it…

received a postcard with Monet water lilies on it which we stood and admired in MoMA… 

  
I love water lilies… looking forward to seeing some in the pond this summer…
