Heading for Ohio

Okay, Christmas is over and the decorations are down.  They are not put away yet, but they are down.  I spent Friday packing so I could leave for Ohio on Saturday morning.  Kevin said we are leaving at 0 dark 30.  Kevin, Renea, Stephanie, Roscoe and Lola, and me are heading for Ohio.  They will be staying for one week at Renea’s brother’s house.  I will be staying for a month with Jana and David. 

 

We arrived safe and sound late Saturday afternoon.  Kevin and family dropped me off at Jana and David’s.  Jana and David were at church, so I let myself in.  Kevin helped me bring all my “stuff” into the house.  Smoky was excited to see me, as were Jana and David when they got home.  Kevin and family then headed to Mark’s house.  I did text Brian to let him know we had arrived.  After supper we ate supper and then got a good night’s sleep.

 

Sunday we visited with mom and watched football.  I talked to both Brian and Kevin via phone.  On Monday Jana, David and I picked up mom and took her to Frisch’s for lunch.  There we met Kevin, Renea, Stephanie and Renea’s grandniece.  We had a very enjoyable lunch, and then headed back to Jana and David’s for the afternoon.  Kevin and Stephanie took Renea and her grandniece to Renea’s mom and dad’s house after which they returned to Jana and David’s.  Brian, Tracy, Steven and Samantha arrived at Jana and David’s about five o’clock.  We had pizza for supper, and then spent the evening visiting.  We had a great time, and laughed a lot. 

 

Tuesday, New Year’s Eve, we spent the day at home.  Talked to Brian and Kevin on the phone and wished them a Happy New Year.  They usually call me at midnight, but I wasn’t sure I would be awake then.  However, Jana, David and I did stay awake until one minute after midnight. 

 

Wednesday, New Year’s Day, Jana made up her mind that she wanted a new laptop.  So, off we went to H.H. Gregg to buy her computer.  Then it was off to Verizon to get her set up with a WiFi.  When we got home the two of us set up her new laptop and WiFi.  We set up her email, she has a new email address, and a few of her favorites.  It was really interesting because I had never used or seen Windows 8.  But, that’s okay, because we did just fine – except for games.  Thursday we went to Best Buy and talked to one of the Geek Squad who explained how to download games.  Now every evening Jana is hooked on playing games on her laptop. 

 

That’s it for now.  I wish all of you a Happy, Healthy and Blessed New Year!
