Dear Carol...Wow, you are making me tired again!

Congratulations on finishing your finals. Don't try to

do too much before you leave because a trip is tiring

enough without beginning it already tired. I bought my

husband's gift tonight and it was the last one. My

step daughter and my son went with me to Guitar Center

so we could pick out a cymbal for him. The only thing

I have left to do is shop for Christmas dinner and

make my dressing mix this weekend. I am also planning

to make some pralines and spiced pecans.

I hope that you have a really great trip but I am sure

that we will talk before you leave. Hugs to you. Iris.

Iris, you're moving right along too! I'm not going to be home for

Christmas, so I can't shop for the meal, although I'll be cooking part of it

at my brother and sister in law's house.

I'll bet your pralines are delicious, being that you're from Louisiana.

Have fun, but take it easy as well.

Love and hugs,

Carol
