Merry Christmas, Etc...

Wow! It's the day before Christmas Eve, and the wrapping is done. 3 gifts are left to deliver, one family gathering Christmas Eve, snow coming. Perfection!

I have a cake and a batch of cookies to bake, perhaps a key lime pie to make as well. Plenty of food and goodies are on hand, I can serve guests with no notice. One cupboard is devoted just to entertaining. I wonder why I didn't think of it years ago. It just works.

Darling Husband assembled my electric trike and I took it for a spin this morning. Fun, fun, fun! That little sucker can go! 15 mph, 30 miles on a charge and a decent sized basket to go shopping with. I really enjoyed being on it.

Well, this past week was busy. There were a couple of trips to the doctors office. We went to Cirque de Soleil Dralion Thursday evening and took the girls who work with darling Husband to it as well as dinner. We had an amazing time. New opera glasses helped me to see parts of the show, and there were parts I could figure out. I sure miss having sight. On Friday evening we took darling Husband's StepMother out for dinner and to go see Christmas lights. I could see the red ones best along with some of the blues and purples. The rest were just dirty blurs. Still, I enjoyed it a lot.

Yesterday my Son, Arthur, was here for a visit. My StepSon and his Fiancé came by also. They're visiting from San Francisco for a couple of weeks. I talked to Mom yesterday, and Dad called me earlier. My Oldest texted that He loves me, precious!

Today is football, relaxation, napping and pure enjoyment of just time spent with the most amazing man I've ever known.

Sundays are special, our schedules are clear, and we jealously guard our time so that it's just for us. Part of what makes our marriage work is making time to be together.

Speaking of time, I need to go. Merry Christmas  to you all, Happy Yule, Blessed XMas!
