I could not wait any longer...I had been trying my best to wait till at least the day after Christmas but I just could not wait any longer. I love puzzles of snow scenes best of all....it being Christmas is a bonus.

Roger is feeling better...but still has not started wearing that hearing aid yet. She said to wait at least 5 days. So, when I talk to him, we have to turn the sound off the TV and I about have to about yell for him to hear...but as long as he is feeling good, I will take that.

We saw this pair of Bald Eagles on Saturday on the way home from Walmart. Maybe 100 yds from the road. I was able to pull off thank goodness. I post a couple more pics over on my other blog. These were not far from Paris, Illinois. Believe it or not, we saw another one about 6-8 miles east of these but there was no place to pull off the road. I cannot believe how many we see. We may go a month or two and only see one, or even none. Then it is like we hit the jackpot...I cannot even think how many we have seen in the past month. When I was a kid, I never expected to ever see one in real life.

My current read is Caroline: Little House, Revisited by Sarah Miller. I am really enjoying it.
I hope everyone is ready for Christmas...I think I am...I think I was the latest I have ever been mailing Christmas cards.
I hope the hearing aid works well. A cousin of mine is struggling with his new one.
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas! Peace and joy to you both.

ReplyDeleteI love a good jigsaw! Glad that ear is on the mend... I'm the most organised I've been in some years... all done and dusted by Dec 12th. Only trouble now, is that I feel there's something missing. Stress! YAM xx
Good for you on starting that puzzle. I will have to wait till after the weekend, as I'm having a house full of company next Saturday.
ReplyDeleteI understand the pull to start a jigsaw puzzle - I love them too! I am so glad Roger is feeling better especially with Christmas almost here. It is amazing that you have been seeing so many eagles! Maybe they are a special Christmas gift for you and Roger!
ReplyDeleteI hope you and Roger have a very Merry Christmas!
You've made a good start on that jigsaw puzzle. The picture is so pretty. I hope you get lots of relaxing time to work on it in the next few days. If I don't make it back here tomorrow I want to wish you and Roger a Happy Christmas and a Happy New Year.
ReplyDeleteI hope you and Roger have a great Christmas, along with all your family.
ReplyDeleteBe happy and stay safe :) Mxx
Its been a long time since I last put together a puzzle. I love challenging puzzles. Hope the hearing aid works well for Roger when he is ready to use it. Wishing you and Roger and love ones Merry Christmas.
ReplyDeleteI would love to do a puzzle but can't imagine. The kitties would be all over that!
ReplyDeleteI have never seen an eagle in the wild. You are so lucky. It is hard to believe there are so many so close.
Merry Christmas to you both and to the girls.
we have been discussing why there are eagles every where now and still don't have an answer. neither of us had ever seen an eagle in the wild until the past couple of years... yay for the puzzle... I wish we liked to do them, it would be something to do other than the junk on TV... Yam has a lot of fun online puzzles, if you want the link, let me know..
ReplyDeleteThat's a nice puzzle. We will be starting another one tomorrow afternoon.
ReplyDeleteI'll be picking up that book to read the day after Christmas.
Now is the time to be working a Christmas puzzle, for sure! I hope you and your family have a very Merry Christmas!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful puzzle and congrats on being able to put together white snow pieces. :-) I won't comment on the hearing aids or the raising of the voice because I think just about every senior married woman has stories similar to yours. :-) Merry Christmas to you, Roger, and all of your loved ones.
ReplyDeleteThat does look a nice puzzle …
ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan
Awesome picture of the Bald Eagles! They are so majestic. Now I see why they were chosen for our country's symbol.
