Week of December 13 - 19th!

Monday: I worked several hours, mailed box to Terri's, Ford grocery shopped, long walk with Ginger, AA had her golf lesson, dinner was an Italian chicken dish (made once before). Busy day!!

Tuesday: School, work, AA dentist to check her new retainer, River House changed to Tuesday! And Terri sent us LOTS of garlic and a few onions - home grown in Maine!

Wednesday: Breakfast with Donna and Charlie at Metro Diner. AA has her first day of High School mid-term finals! She scored a (disappointed) 90 on the algebra, which makes her final grade a 95. Two more days of these tests! Wednesday, she attended the after half-day of school AICE holiday party (pizza, soda, chips and candy; plus they raffled off 100 gift cards, which she did not win).

Terri sent us a box of assorted goodies from Maine!

Thursday: I worked a few hours, Ford got his haircut, I picked up AA, after another school half-day. 

I went to the West Side Story movie with Kathy McDonald. Very good movie, very long too. The singing and dancing, plus Rita Moreno's character all was as expected. But the violence, the sounds and realism, too much for me!

Ford made a new Mexican casserole for dinner. AA's new eye glasses came in, fitted, but needs another adjustment.

AND - AA was named the 2021 Clay Today Super 6 - Girl Golfer of the Year. From FB: Alyzabeth chosen as Clay Today SUPER 6 Golf Girl Player of the Year. Way to go our talented freshman. fm - Congratulations Kalia, Alyzabeth and the entire Fleming Island Ladies Golf Team! So proud of each of you. Fantastic season! Maybe next year go to the States!

Friday: Half-day (early release). Semester mid-term finals are over!

We drove to Green Cove Springs to see the Christmas Trees in Spring Park.

AA signed up for her first social media account - Instagram.

Saturday: Since AA's Par 3 golf tournament was cancelled, we had time to make cookie batter and shopping! 

AA eating a Maine Apple - She can as no braces!

Yum! Apple Pie Jam from Mom!

Plus our usual Happy Hour at the RH with yummy appetizers: goat cheese with cranberries, smoked salmon on pumpernickel bread and our bruschetta with fig jam and blue cheese! AA and Carolyn did some shopping, then dropped by the River House.

Sunday: We wrapped gifts for three hours, then drove to Leaa's to drop off their gifts, put under their tree. A stop by Ancient brewery is always right on the way home! We watched the Jaguars lose again (no head coach as Urban was fired).

AA golfed until it rained, she worked through some bad cramping today. Dinner was a chicken pot pie from Fresh Market.
