Every year my partner and I and Miss Charlie our bulldog, rent a car and drive to New York from chicago. We spend a week there with my parents and at the same time like to sightsee in New York city. I also hold a dinner for those who are alone or do not have family at the moment at my home in Geneva illinois. If you are in Illinois and find yourself alone this season please contact me. This is a season of love and giving.
God bless everyone.🤗

Thursday nights are always busy with JOKERJOKERtv on youtube. It's great because I don't have family anymore so no sense risking Turkeypox or Diarrhea. The last 3 Black Fridays have been quite nice not being in the bathroom on the commode.
