Off to San Antonio and Christmas with the family, should be fewer than 20 this year which is a releif (I have eight brothers and sisters and am the second youngest). I really enjoy Christmas; love the Nutcracker, kind of like carols and caroling, love trimming the tree and opening presents, even egg nog. LOVE Christmas dinner with my family, everything just the way I like it (green beans but not green bean casserole, natural gravy, cornbread stuffing with onions, celery and mushrooms, and plum pudding of all ghastly things) and at the right time, around 12:30-noon so you can take a nap and be up making turkey fried rice (another family tradition) by six or so.
We're taking the dogs this year, and have managed to get placed in the outer office, which will give us our own bathroom and make it less of a drag for everyone else when we have to take the dogs outside in the middle of the night. I'm not sure if the pool will be heated but I'm not terribly interested in swimming this year, should be miserably cold throughout the weekend.
So Merry Christmas, or whatever, and be careful driving. It's Drunken Tragedy season, and you don't even have to drink to get involved.
