Eve afternoon

Just finished cleaning house, leastways my version of cleaning house—picking up all the newspapers and vacuuming the floors—and am looking out my back window at a sunny but crisply cold afternoon. There was ice on the fountain again this morning, confusing the birds. Susan and Bill are coming over around 4:30, and we'll head up to the annual Davis Holiday Meal, given these past 24 years by the Davis Food Co-op as a way to bring the community together to celebrate the season and one another. After dinner, it's back here to crack open the Bailey's and exchange Festivus tributes. As for tomorrow, I've been invited to join Susan at her sister's house in Danville for dinner. And maybe, just maybe, if I'm not in fear of my earlobes freezing off, I'll get in a bike ride beforehand.

Merry Christmas to all, and to all a warm night!

And Merry Christmas to you, too, dear Babz from deep in the heart of the tropics. It's about 80º here and, at our usual Christmas Eve dinner the big concern was mosquitoes, not frostbite. Hope your celebrations is full of joy and hope for the future.
