Hope everyone had a happy Christmas. The boyfriend and I spent our day together in total peace and quiet. First, we toasted the holiday with tall-glass Bloody Marys, then snacks before a supper of tasty leftovers from Christmas Eve. Raindrops fell the entire day, which made for cozy indoors. Those of us who didn't have to go anywhere could enjoy the silent seclusion.
This afternoon at 2 we're invited to our beloved Cuddy's parents' house for sips and snacks. There will be a little soul missing, of course, but it is what it is. They are two of the sweetest people, and, through puppysitting Cuddy, we forged a special friendship. This January they will be spending time in Hawaii. Before Cuddy passed away, I planned on him staying with us. But, like I always say, we must suck it up and play the cards we're dealt.
You'll notice that I changed my blog photo to include my darling fur-nieces, Millie and Maggie. The picture was taken Saturday when we were with the G-clan. I always tease how I'm gonna secretly steal them and take 'em home with me. Aren't they little sweetie pies?
Today I'm really happy that we didn't put up a lot of decorations. We drove by some homes where the yards were covered with miles of lights, blown-up Santas, reindeer, sparkly snowflakes, and lord knows what all. Having to dismantle all that must be a real drag. And, then there's the business of packing it away and storing it somewhere. Sure can tell I've graduated from that school of effort.
Best get going here so I'm ready to head out the door shortly before 2. Ta-ta till the morrow.
