Christmas
Yay! Christmas is over! Not too bad. The only low points were 1: the obligatory Christmas kitten that the kids let out of the house an hour later, then chased out of the neighborhood before informing us that it was gone, 2: the boy-child refusing any gifts this year that did not have his name somewhere on the wrapping paper (it wouldn’t have been so bad, if only he didn’t scream so much), 3: the girl-child being jealous of everything the boy-child got, 4: the food-poisoning for the anniversary dinner on Friday night (reminder for next year — don’t go anywhere fancy), 5: the mad spending that went on, and 6: the immediate ignoring of the over-priced presents by the chilluns, who preferred the fort I made out of a couple of large cardboard boxes. Other than that, things went fairly well. As long as I am not laid off anytime soon, I should have the spending madness paid off by May. How about Yours?
