Christmas 2025
The other night, I was walking Charlie and heard sirens in the distance. Then I heard music and realized that Santa Claus was coming on a fire engine. I don’t think Charlie knew what was going on, but he didn’t seem scared.
Marie arrived late Tuesday night. She worked-from-home yesterday. As an editor, she has writers and artists to supervise.
While she was working, I took Charlie to Seven Bends State Park. The weather was nice, but the river level is low.
Today was Christmas Day. Lynn drove down here, bringing gifts and food for dinner.
We opened gifts and had an tasty meal that Marie cooked. I received a new phone and they set it up for me. I used to be tech savvy, but since I retired, I have found it’s hard to keep up with all the changes.
I hope you had a great day too.
