Nonnie's Observations

My loving husband and I were fortunate to be present at the  Children's Mass, Christmas Eve 2002, at St. Louis Cathedral  in New Orleans. We Americans are privileged to be able to practice our religion openly. I pray this Christmas Eve that this will be true forever. I wish fellow Christians a Merry Christmas,  and to our Jewish brethren Happy Hanukkah! May we live in peace in the coming year  of 2017.

This photo shows  my first three Christmas presents- a holy card, red candle & picture of our Blessed Mother  with her Divine Infant.  Many thanks to those who blessed me with these items.    Merry Christmas to...  my "baby" brother, who's missed so much  and to my younger cousin pictured in the heading photo, I love you, Cheryl.

I discovered a second infection appearing last Friday; I was able to see my doctor.  No sign of it today. So seven more days of antibiotic should make me clear of infection.
