I stopped blogging on December 31st, 2020 and just now, in July, realize how much I  miss it- so I'm going to try and catch up. This was a loaf of Challah bread that I made. I can tell from photos at this time that I was doing work on my Jewish genealogy and wanted to try to make Challah for Friday night.

My sweet grandson, Baby J. Jes sent me this photo today of him at 1 month old. He looks more grown up than he did just four days ago. He is smiling now,,,, and I hope to see him very soon.

Today Dan and I cleaned the house and I got my office livable again.

Today I took care of J all night long because Jes had to go to the hospital. She was hemorrhaging and needed surgery to stop it. We are so fortunate that she got help in time. It was very scary.

J has a stuffy nose, so I went to Target to 

get him some Boogie Drops. Tomorrow we leave for our house in the mountains!
