Tomorrow is our Christmas Sunday worship service. I'm not an official member of the worship team, but sort of a substitute. Anyway, I'll be soloing "O Holy Night." I just hope I can pull it off. These inhalers are murder on my vocal chords.

MIL’s blanket is finished. For most people it would be a throw. MIL is not even 5ft tall. 😊 #holsteinhouse #wv #usa #travel #bnb #gm #pv 🤙 #Christmas  #nostr #grownostr #bnbstr

Such a blessing to help with the food pantry at City Of Hope Fellowship again today! Now to work on MIL’s tie blanket. She loves chickens and hopefully this will be a comfort for her in the nursing home. #holsteinhouse #wv #usa #travel #bnb #gm #pv 🤙 #Christmas #nostr #grownostr #bnbstr

Good morning all y'all! Food pantry day. This one will be a challenge. There is no place to let folks get out of the weather and it's going to be very cold, windy, and maybe wet. Probably going to be a lot of people complaining. I think I have a respiratory thing, courtesy of the grand nephew. Ugg. #holsteinhouse #wv #usa #travel #bnb #gm #pv 🤙 #nostr #grownostr #bnbstr

Good morning all y’all! It is cold out this morning! Right now it’s 37°F/2.8°C on the Holstein House front porch, in my part of Kanawha County, West Virginia, USA! Emergency help packing food boxes for tomorrow. Two key people are sick so grand-nephew and I helping out in a couple hours. Also, I need to tidy this porcelain doll up for a sweet girl. I find conflicting info on how ro tame the hair. Some say a fabric softener/water mix and comb, others say baby shampoo/water mix. If you have done this, what worked best in your opinion! #holsteinhouse #wv #usa #travel #bnb #gm #pv 🤙 #Christmas #nostr #grownostr #bnbstr

Coming together. I won’t use everything for Christmas Eve dinner but it will be ready. #christmas #nostr #grownostr #family

I may have a table linen problem. LOL Trying to find all my Christmas placemats and the drawers screamed for help. 🤣 #nostr #grownostr #homesteading #christmas

Sitting in JoAnn Fabric parking lot. Stopped on a whim to see if they have fleece with chickens that I can make a tie blanket for my mother in law. Boom! #family #christmas #grownostr #nostr

Good morning all y'all! Been doing some catch-up reading this morning so running a little behind on routine tasks. Christmas is quickly approaching. I have most things taken care of. Still need stocking candies, and trinkets. Warmer today, but lots of rain. What does your week before Christmas look like? #holsteinhouse #wv #usa #travel #bnb #gm #pv 🤙 #nostr #grownostr #bnbstr

It’s hard to make out but finally have the outdoor Christmas greenery done. #Christmas #HolsteinHouse #wv #usa #bnb #nostr #grownostr
