My older sister and I planned a visit between Christmas and New Year's. It sort of took the sting out of not being able to spend the holidays with all of our kids. Then it almost didn't happen when Terry and I were exposed to Covid on Christmas Eve! But we watched for symptoms (there were none, likely thanks to a recent booster!) and tested negative, so the visit was ON!
We had fun just visiting, playing cards, and even putting together a Lego set - which was great fun! We would have loved having this kind of Lego as a kid, so what's to stop us from enjoying it now?
But a great surprise was that Ann brought me a quilt she had made me for my 60th birthday. Since my birthday was a few months back, I was not expecting anything, much less this very thoughtful gift. It is a "Book Nerd" quilt, which is just perfect for me!
