First thing this month we had Gutters 4 Less out installing new gutters on our house. They did a wonderful job as they always do. I recommend their services. Elks had their Christmas Bazaar on the 9th. Mom, Nicole and I attended. I bought a new cutting board and we all picked up some Christmas gifts for our loved ones. On the 13th A co-worker and I got recertified in CPR, AED, and Basic First Aid. It’s good training to have and it gets our company a better insurance rate. On Saturday the 16th we took a friend to National Harbor/D.C. for their birthday. We had quite a time. I won enough money at slots to pay for dinner at Voltaggio’s Steakhouse, fund my companions gambling, drinking, etc. MGM sponsored our weekend. We also saw Cirque du Soleil’s Holidaze stage show. We wound up the month with several Christmas parties and a special NYE trip I will talk about in my next post.  What a wild 2023!
