Damn. Lucky.

The night of the 27th. I should be thinking about dinner but I'm sitting here in the dark, with the trees glowing, watching some Steve Forbert interviews on youtube. Ernie and the boys are watching the National Lampoon Christmas movie in the other room. I feel peaceful. I think we all feel happy.

Christmas was lovely. As always we probably spent too much but I gotta say, those boys of mine are so appreciative that it does my heart more good than I can say. They are sweet, sweet peas. First thing on Christmas morning they insisted we open our presents, even before they opened any of theirs. Do they have any idea how much I adore that? 

I owe a bunch of folks some thank you notes. We are so blessed with our friends. And my family? Well, I just don't know how I got so lucky.

Merry Christmas....because the 12 days of Christmas are just beginning!

Waiting for daylight on Christmas morning, after having opened presents. I took my traditional Christmas morning nap, and it was delightful....
