Puzzle

Puzzle undone

I got a great gift for the Christmas season. When Grandma went into St.Barnabas Nursing Home, it was clear that she was not returning to her house. She collected creches over the years. The only one I wanted was one that my father made. My mom sent it to me. As you can see, it's a puzzle. I always liked it.

We have a small tree this year. We thought Hazel might grab at ornaments so we went tabletop.

Happy Holidays etc

The tree guards that Jack designed got a nice opening last week. We had our block association holiday party where we unveiled the tree guards.
C. Virginia Fields (Manhattan Borough President), Keith Wright (Assemblyman), and our new councilperson Inez Dickens came to wish our block well and congratulate us on the project.
It also gave us a great opportunity to discuss some other issues we feel are threatening Harlem revitalization; namely harassment of tenants by unscrupulous (greedy) building owners and the new practice of advertising air rights to prospective buyers. There was good talk and I was especially proud of Jack's contribution.

French Buffet

We’re selling a buffet on craigslist.  Now that the curtains are done, the buffet no longer fits.  Check out the piece here http://newyork.craigslist.org/mnh/fur/117485013.html.  NYC locals only.  I can’t arrange shipping right now.

Jack designed uniform tree guards for our block. The first sample was installed today. It'll be great when they're all in.
