Have a Holly, Jolly Christmas!
Let me start off with thanking everyone for their kind words and thoughts this last week when I lost my beloved Mother. As we know, life goes on.
Now for Christmas, there is nothing better than seeing your 2-year-old granddaughter (on Skype) running around from present to present…
She was overwhelmed and over stimulated. Hey, she’s our only granddaughter. What were we supposed to do, but buy her everything, including, and I have to tell you it was the cutest thing you have ever seen, a red dragon Stuffie!!! I put a note in telling them his name was Smaug….
Then there was my Christmas. I will start with I got Legos! I got Season 1, both volumes, of Outlander! I got Aidan Turner in “Poldark”. I got Dragon Speak, several genealogical books, a sandwich press, (can’t wait to make “Spaceburgers”), and last but certainly not least, a couple of books on how to sell your stuff on Ebay. I will be the hit of the golf course, with neon blue golf balls and my new golf knickers and argyle socks.
I was terribly spoiled and am eternally grateful for every single gift.
Orcrist was a bit overwhelmed and over stimulated with all his gifts too, from 
antique safety razors to vintage fountain pens. The requisite boxers and socks were a given.
As always, my most desired gift is that you, my friend, (yes, I am talking to you) are healthy and happy, that the New Year brings you peace and goodwill.
Now, I must away to make a Lego Submarine.
