It is allergy season here in North Texas — conveniently occurring right after my recovery from covid. The weather is the usual roller coaster — yesterday it was 81 and sunny, today it is 55 and cloudy and tomorrow it is to be 71 and lovely. All of that adds to the abundance of mountain cedar.
I managed to do some Christmas shopping — by that I mean cards because everybody is getting money except for my cousin. We also got an angel off an online Salvation Army angel tree. Her name is Kirsten and she is 2. She wanted a baby doll and she has a heart condition. Oh, and she likes Paw Patrol. We picked her up a few things to wear, some books and the requisite baby doll and will deliver it to the drop off place in the morning. Out of all the Christmas=y things to do, getting an angel is my favorite.
I am getting used to my clown shoes. I have to admit that the orthotics are helping my feet and, in turn, helping my knees a bit. They still hurt but I can at least get out of the car and walk without risking injury to myself. It took a while to realize that my feet were contributing to my knees but it makes sense. Hopefully I will continue to improve or at least not get any worse.
My Christmas tree is just a bit lame — my heart is not into it — but I will plod on. Maybe I will post a picture but trust me, it isn’t Pinterest worthy. I tried to get the Bean to help but her heart wasn’t into it either. Blah.
Ok, just checking in because I have been AWOL for a bit. Hoping everybody is having a good December so far.

Good news that you're over Covid but not so great that your allergies are acting up. Picking a name and buying gifts for a little 2 year old does sound like fun. Puts a person more in a Christmassy mood. Also, it's good to know your knees are a bit less painful. The shoes are helping.
