DECEMBER
And a most joyous Christmas to all.
Here we gather for the afternoon in
San Francisco where we take a moment
from the new Nintendo game to gather
for a Family photo (but missing Cath
and Krystol).
NOVEMBER
-
Thanksgiving in Woodside has been
missing for a few years. We eat outside just to be super safe
(and there was a big table too). Peter, Lil, Sam, his friend Ryan
and her Mom join with Jo's bother's family. Food was excellent
and the company even better.
OCTOBER -
Critters abound during the summer.
Two hawks fledged in our yard. A
coyote moved in for about a week and
enjoyed lounging at the pond.
And a deer decided to just walk down
our driveway! Click on picture for
more detail.
SEPTEMBER
-
How wonderful to see Lillian and
Samatha again. Here they show Grandma how they use their iPads
to make horse videos.
AUGUST -
Hicap (Medicare Counseling) continues
to be an apostolate for John and he celebrates his 8th anniversary of
volunteering. He spends about 15 hours a week between community
talks and ZOOM Counseling. ExxonMobil still contributes
$1000 a year to support the activities (which we use for the
volunteer recognition Lunch).
JULY -
A
happy 11th Birthday for Sam and Lil
brings Catharine to visit. So
we all pose for a family picture
outside the tankhouse. Even
LouLou sits still for a minute (or
is that a squirrel she just heard?
MAY -
Kindle becomes a savior for Jo who is
unable to get books either from the Library or the donations to the
Hospital. It takes some doing to select on line and then
download and eventually return. With Jo, necessity is the
Mother of invention, and she easily learns to conquer the evil
Internet.
APRIL -
IVIG
is a monthly 'chore' at this point.
It was a tough transition in January
with his new Medical coverage, but
it worked out after a LOT of arm
wrestling with Aetna! Here he
has the whole infusion clinic to
himself about 10 minutes from home.
Superlative service!
MARCH -
Being officially fully
vaccinated, we see the Grandchildren
in person on March 21st for the
first time in over 1 year.
That is Jo-Ann's birthday and she gets the best
present ever!
FEBRUARY -
Excuse the 'stocky'. John gets a
notice from his County volunteer
supervisor that the Country heath
system is now offering appointments
fro those over 75. In just a few
clicks he gets appointments for both
of us - but Moderna and Pfizer so we
can compare. We are 'immune' by
March 8th!
