Its Almost Christmas!

I can't believe how fast this year has gone!  Christmas is almost here!  Overall though, tt's been a pretty quiet week around here, among other things...

• We mailed cards and money to all of the kids and grandkids.  Hubby and I don't give each other gifts since we just buy what we want when we want it so as far as presents go, we are done.  I do have a massive amount of Christmas cookies to bake and deliver this week which will probably be its own post! 
• We had a couple of stormy days (see photo above) but the weather is back to sunny today.  Fortunately it dumped some snow on our local mountain and we may have a rain/snow mix on Christmas day!
• I finished up with my dental work this past week.  A good cleaning, replacing four old fillings (we are talking really old, like 35 year old or so!), and I got an old crown replaced.  It was about $2000 but well worth the money as my dentist is awesome and he gives me a discount for paying cash.  He does excellent work and his staff is great as well!  
• I came across this funny obituary which recently went viral on the internet.
• There are several interesting challenges I've seen on the internet for 2022 (not sure if I will actually partake in these challenges but definitely something to think about), including here, here, and here.
• You can win $100,000 if you find this guy a wife.
• And here is a contest to win a restaurant. 
• Finally, Kraft will pay people $20 NOT to make a cheesecake for Christmas!
