Oh, the momentous choices! What font to use! I didn’t want to use my usual Helvetica or one that was fancy but hard to read. So I chose Kailasa, mostly because I tired of looking at all the choices. (Blogger doesn't give me this choice.)
Here I sit on Christmas Day having procrastinated for one reason or another. The last reason took over two days before I gave up.
The reason: having already put this off, I thought I had the perfect photo. It was a waist-high stump at our cabin that was coated with snow and was topped with snow that had slid to one side, giving the impression of a head. I was going to put under the picture:
I am not the grouch that stole Christmas;
I just procrastinate too much!
Problem is: I can’t find the picture! I spent two days looking at all my devices for the picture. I looked at some folders two or three times. NADA! Why do I have such a clear memory of a picture I can’t find? I am sure I saw it in front of the printer two weeks ago.
To make up for this procrastination, I am sending this by email. Otherwise, I might not get the envelopes done until next year!
So, here we sit in Duluth, wimping out on going to our cabin because of a predicted snow storm. Also we are getting leery of driving in the dark (now at five in the afternoon). About six weeks ago Jan hit a deer, in daylight but heavy shade. She looked for the deer but never found it. Her car was drivable, but it took a few days of body work.
Otherwise, it has been a usual year: fitness center, cabin, meetings, plays, concerts, and family visits: in person, by telephone, or FaceTime.
We are slowly growing older, sometimes feeling it, sometimes doing things better than we ever did before!
May your coming year be one of good health and interesting activities, even if it is only lots of good books.
P.S. A sister-in-law has already responded. She misses my fruitcake of yore. I replied that the recipe is at http://magree.blogspot.com/2014/12/fruitcake-doorstop-or-holiday-treat.html.
