Merry Christmas, everyone!

Yes, I missed a post again last Sunday. I was at the computer and kept putting it off, thinking "I'll do it later." And when "later" finally arrived, I was off doing something else.

Anyway, Valerie went in and got a "Christmas colonoscopy" yesterday, and was declared "all clear" by the doctors there. She doesn't have to drink the special gallon of "go juice" for another 10 years; I, on the other hand, wasn't quite as lucky and (if memory serves me, even though I'm trying to forget) I have to return in five years for another fun-filled adventure.

We're having a white Christmas this year, even though it arrived here later than usual. (I wore my postal shorts into the first part of December this year, something that I rarely am able to wear past the first week in November.) This Christmas Eve promises an incoming storm, so we should be having another layer of "Christmas cheer" on the ground by morning. Hooray...

Valerie got stuck working today (which is our scheduled day off), while I didn't. So I'm sitting at the Toyota dealership right now having some routine service being performed on our RAV4 -- which is a great winter driving machine! After this, I'll probably go do some last minute shopping (is there any other kind?), and spend a little time this afternoon with my mother.

Merry Christmas to those of you who observe this Holiday, and have a pleasant day wherever you might find yourself!
