Made these earrings before going out to the winery this morning. Had my old Grinch t-shirt on as well. Someone in line said, love your earrings! Made them huge, 1.75" wide. Can't miss them. Wanted to make sure people saw that I'm a Grinch! LOL. No, I don't sell these. I do sell other stuff on Etsy.

While at @lynfredwinery.bsky.social picking up our wine of the month. The chief winemaker was feted last night for this award. They give their tips to various charities every month. They help other small local businesses. They are good people. Their wine is second to NONE! Cheers!🍷#IllinoisWInery

Visited @lynfredwinery.bsky.social to have a glass or 2 of warmed Christmas Red Wine out on their porch. Picked up our wine of the month, Cabernet Sauvignon and also a couple more bottles of Christmas Red which pairs nicely with shoveling snow!

I know we didn't get a lot of snow last year, but that doesn't mean we have to hit all the high levels of snowfall. Hubby was out shoveling. Said it wasn't 1-3 inches, it was at least 6" on the ground to shovel. BAH HUMBUG! Need to go buy more spiced wine to heat up!😅

LOL, this looks so much like my old cat, Blue. He and his brother would knock down our Christmas tree so many times, that I stopped putting the tree up. It was a 12' behemoth with all my Hallmark ornaments on it. Broke many of them. Those 2 cats were characters. Loved them.😅💗

Currently reading "Ghosts of Hiroshima", by Charles Pellegrino. I read "Hiroshima" by John Hersey maybe 50 years ago. "Ghosts of Hiroshima" brings to life so many survivors stories, updated in a truly fascinating way.

Hubby just brought me home a Grinch Meal from McDonalds - out today. 10pc chicken nuggets, dill fries (large fries you put in the Grinch shaker bag, and add the dill salt to it and shake). A Coke and a pair of Grinch socks. The fries were pretty decent. My cholesterol is definitely not thanking me.😅

Hubby just went out to join the rest of the neighbors who are shoveling their sidewalks. Hubby told me I better start heating up his @lynfredwinery.bsky.social Christmas Red for his treat when he comes back in. Lynfred Winery Christmas Red wine. Perfect pairing with shoveling the snow! Cheers! 🍷

Just saw this on FB. I am assuming this is one of the pair that has frequently visited us. Just recently as last week. I wondered why they had not left yet to go south.

After hubby finished work, we headed to @lynfredwinery.bsky.social for a glass out on their porch. Enjoyed a glass of heated Christmas Red. Heaters were on! So good! Hope it didn't jinx us. We drink heated Christmas Red when shoveling is involved. Enjoy the day!❤️🍷

OK, I've seen predictions in our area (NW Chicago suburbs) for tomorrow, snowfall of up to 6". These guys have been putting out 1-2 feet. I'm hoping that all predictions will be wrong (usually are), and we get nothing. ❄️☃️

This is Roxy and our son. I've explained before, that Roxy and Vinny are both adopted out of shelters. Roxy has some type of cancer that's slow. Doing well so far! #Caturday
