Carney Family Newsletter for April

Walking along the causeway



I recently returned home from Myrtle Beach and was greeted by SNOW! How unkind is Mother Nature.

Despite problems with back pain, I had a lovely time in SC. I really enjoyed being with my family. Thank you to all the Mitsuoka family for their kindness and thoughtfulness and for putting up with my whining about my back pain. Thank you for the scooter. I was so happy to be able to get out on the causeway and all around Brookgreen....it's been several years since I was able to venture out that far. A big thank you to Takeshi for my new iphone XR....I love it....and to Amy for cooking for me.....Hello Fresh!

You know that's how you get into heaven by being kind to old people....lol.

Me in my frustration from an old editing program that keeps crashing and a new program that isn't any good. Send me news and pictures....so much more fun when there is something to write about.

Carney Family Newsletter for February

 

"It's Over"

Winter that is.....It's March 1st tomorrow and I think that we have seen the last of winter. The snow piles are still hanging around but the sun is shining and temperatures are over freezing degrees. Spring is just around the corner!





Happy Birthday John

Happy 25th to John...sorry you were sick on your birthday....choose another day to celebrate!


Happy Birthday Twin
Sending birthday wishes your way! Hope that you had a great one








Immunity...

Where we stand
                                                     Sean volunteered to get his injection......

I have had both my injections and so has Sarah, Jim and Mary Ann are soon to get their second, Tim will be getting his after his vacation but that leaves a lot of our family with no immunity. Most of you know that Takeshi, Amy and John were all sick with the Covid virus so now they have immunity too but what away to get it. They were down for 3 weeks and only went back to work the other day. They were pretty sick. So glad that they have finally recovered.
Hoping that we will be getting back to some normalcy soon......at least like it was last summer.

My Kind of Town

Recently Liam visited his sister in the big city.....looks pretty cold to me but they said that they had a good time.

Carney Family Newsletter for January

 Keep Warm and Carry On




Well, it's not a very big month for news. I have next to nothing to report.

                                I got my first vaccine injection and the second is due next week.  Sarah and I are                    the only ones to have gotten the vaccine so far.                                                                   

Tim had to get a new furnace.

Mikey is dabbling in the stock market.

The whole Mitsuoka family plus Jacob had to be tested for Covid due to exposure.....all negative!

My neighbor keeps stepping on my grass 

Shout out to Mike for helping me with a computer problem.

So, to ward off newsletter boredom here are some cat pictures.
