Warm wishes for the new year, no pun intended! It is COLD outside.
We stayed home for New Year's Eve. Daughter L had a friend over and they baked doughnuts. Son K played Grand Theft Auto 5 with friends online. We have been staying up too late over the holidays, so we were up to welcome in the New Year with champagne. I had made a nice casual pork roast for dinner.
Daughter L had her regular checkup with the eye doctor this week. She had an optomap (digital scan) done of her retina so she did not have to have her eyes dilated. The doctor also did a visual field test. We had to pay extra for these tests but we figure it is worth it.
We all ended up at the mall later on that day and found that the sales were still ongoing. L got a great deal on new clothes, building a work wardrobe. The truth is, she has too many clothes and shoes. K also found some great deals on some designer clothes. I enjoyed looking through the discounted boxes of Christmas cards and bought a couple that I liked for 50 percent off. So I am all set for Christmas 2014!
