We sometimes get pizza from one of the local shops. This year, I'm making dinner because we're going to do Christmas decorating on Friday and have pizza after that.
Do you like to paint your fingernails?? I do, but the polish never stays on longer than 1 day. I used to get acrylics and those would last 3 weeks, but with no where to go and staying home for the holidays, I'm not this year.

For about 10 years I got gel manicures every 2-3 weeks. The end of last year I just got tired of going and stopped. Since then my nails have been nude. I’m glad I stopped before Coronavirus so I don’t miss it.
Has your frequency or method of haircuts or hair coloring changed during Coronavirus times?
I’m lucky that my neighbor/best friend is my stylist. I probably did go about 3 months at the beginning; I usually cut my hair every 4 weeks. I have short hair. I don’t color my hair so that’s not a concern for me.

July 2019 was my last hair cut in an actual salon; I had my husband take scissors to my hair in August. I just put it in a ponytail and told him wear to chop. Haha. He's been cutting his hair since I bought him a set of clippers from Amazon in February or so. It's more than paid for itself.
Do you go into the grocery store or do you do pick-up/delivery?

Since Coronavirus started, we usually go to 2 store (BJs & King Kullen) every 3-4 weeks. We hold-out as long as we can.
How many people will be at your Thanksgiving table tomorrow.
We have dwindled down to 4. My husband and I and our neighbors/best friends.

There will just be 3 of us for Thanksgiving although we are celebrating it on Friday instead of tomorrow.
Do you send out Christmas/holiday cards?

Silent Night, sung in German with all vocal parts - soprano, alto, tenor and bass.
Do you miss the old Christmas specials that were popular in the 80's & 90's?

I can’t remember what specials there were so I guess I don’t miss them. I do remember all the cartoons/claymations that I watched as a kid though, but those were from an earlier time period.
Are you cooking a big meal today?

We are having the traditional dinner for just dh and I.
Are you a pro at gift wrapping or a "just get it wrapped" kind of person? I am messy, DH is the pro.

Yes, I try to put in the extra effort. Especially at Christmas, it’s easier. You can just add a sprig of pine, or an ornament, to the bow. For kids you can add candy or a small toy, by the bow. But, sometimes I use bags with lots of tissue.
Is football on at your house on Thanksgiving ? My family loves to watch the Lions and then the Cowboys. Since, we’re all from Michigan but live mostly in Texas. Go Cowboys. 💙

YES football was on today; we watched both games. We have an annual Thanksgiving Football Pool for our neighbors and friends. Besides bragging rights, there’s also a trophy and a $50 cash prize. This year’s trophy was the “Coronavirus Edition” and the person who won, a neighbor, was diagnosed with the Coronavirus on Monday. He’s feeling pretty good, thank God, but him and his family are now quarantined for 14 days. He was thrilled to win !
What was your favorite thing you ate today ?
Mine was my homemade gravy and my neighbor’s stuffing ! Mmmm 😋

I’ve been to Disney World a few times but not in many years. Would love to go back, not now of course.
Will you be watching the Disney Sing-a-long Monday night ?
Definitely !

No Black Friday Shopoing for us. All shopping done & wrapped. Christmas decorating has begun !
Do you decorate your bathroom for Christmas ?
I haven’t for about 15 years. This year I saw an awesome shower curtain & towels and just couldn’t resist !

I just put a cute little Charlie Brown type Christmas tree on the toilet where I usually keep a fake potted plant from IKEA.
What is your decorating style?

No, usually only at charity events. I work too hard for my money to let it waste away. Favourite Christmas cookie? Pecan logs, with one part dipped in dark chocolate. Melts away in my mouth.  |

Hmmmm not really. But I do enjoy making sure everyone has all different paper.
Do you write anything on your gift cards on your packages besides to/from?
My husband loves to write cute little notes, poems and funny messages. I always get reminded to read them!

Once a week; sometimes 2 weeks.
Will you be having Christmas with the same people you had Thanksgiving with?
We will be with the same people.
