Hi Jan. I recently discovered that I have double vision. This is AFTER I'd already had cataracts removed in both eyes! I thought to myself after reading your Newsletter: "GEEZ, EVEN MY EYEBALLS ARE SAGGING! Since I now realize that part of having said double vision entails seeing part of a line slightly below the other. Sagging, indeed!
Oh, I hate that for you, am. When I complain to my eye doctor, he just keeps saying I have aging eyes. I know; I know. Ha! I hope they can help your double vision. Merry Christmas! xoxo
You make me lauugh Jan. I remember one year my husband brought me an iron. Let's just say "what the xxxx " came out of my mouth. He then told me to open the box up and inside was an envelope with details of a trip to Canada for the following February. Talk about embarrassing. 🫣
OMG Anna ~ That is funny! What a great way for your husband to give you that trip! Shoot! Maybe I should have dug deeper in all those sweeper boxes. Naw! The next year I did get a diamond ring -- but that was that. This year I got rewiring in the kitchen. Ha! Ha! Have a Merry Christmas! xoxo
I love to watch Carol Burnett and Tm Conway and Henry Colman they are hilarious. I laugh so hard. Miss those old shows. But truly Jan your Little old lady with the red purse cracks me up. And now your comment about your nose sagging like your boobs LOL. Anytime I have a bad day or feeling a little down I can read your blog and laugh. So thank you for this. Loving you friend. Merry Christmas to you and your family.
I love going to my skin care specialist. Not dermatologist, as I don't have a medical reason to see her, I'm just vain. But we always have a laugh, and when we made my next appointment for January, she realized she'd not set the time. "That's OK," I said, "I'll just come on the day and hang around for a while!" We laughed as though it was a 24 karat gold joke.
My mother cured me right away from trying to see my Christmas gifts in a sneaky way. She said if I did she would return all my gifts. lol she was good at returning things because whatever we gave her she would exchange. Great story Jan.
You make me laugh all the time! I so love our conversations. I still remember an online conversation where you made a certain young man laugh so hard over almost flunking high school English and we all ended up cracking up. We need to facetime more often - it always makes my day. I hope you and Stoney and all the family have an awesome, laughter-filled Christmas.
Yes, one of my very favorite things to do -- Facetime with you & Cindy. But it can be challenging finding a block of 3-4 hours??? Ha Ha! Merry Christmas to you & Keith too! {{Hugs}}
I watch videos of 60s shows if I need to get a chuckle, Johnny Carson is always a good start. I haven't had a gut-busting laugh in quite while, haha, I'd better reach out to find something to get me in the mood!! 😅
I don't know why, but reels with laughing babies do the trick for me. Oh, and my husband gives me a chuckle sometimes. Yesterday when I left the house, I mentioned there was a German chocolate cake that he could bake if he wanted -- since I didn't have time. When I got home, there was a tape measure on the kitchen counter beside the cake. I asked him what that was for and he said he had to make sure he was using the right size pan. OMG Ha ha! Wishing you and Carl a happy day, Patti! xoxo
Thanks, Pam! I love hearing from you. Hope your Christmas is awesome! 🐕 🐶

OMG, Rose ~ sounds like a skin care specialist I'd really like to know. Wishing you continued laughter in 2025. {{Hugs}}
She's amazing. Also really knows her stuff, which is what you want when someone is shoving a needle in your face.
My mother cured me right away from trying to see my Christmas gifts in a sneaky way. She said if I did she would return all my gifts. lol she was good at returning things because whatever we gave her she would exchange. Great story Jan.
Thanks, Lucinda! I always wondered if my parents knew. Never did it again I felt so guilty. Have a Merry Christmas! xoxo

You could always try reading David Sedaris. Really great sharp observational comedy.
I will check him out. Thanks!!!
Pleasure! He's a hoot!
