Well the holiday season is just about over, once the ball drops on Time Square it is back to everyday stuff, no more Christmas Caroles on the radio, no more lights on the houses and inflated snowmen on the lawn, no more happy mail, ie greeting cards and no more stuffing ourselves with junk food because "It is the holiday season afterall."
I enjoy the lights on houses. It makes the dreary winter seem a little less dreary and while I think people drive like they left their brains at the last store they shopped at, I think in general people seem a wee bit more cheerful or at least willing to smile if you smile at them.
Anyway I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas and it was great to see Katie and Andy Christmas Day. You guys look great and are so much fun to be around.
Well here is hoping that 2009 is a a very good year for one and all. I hope prosperty knocks and you are at home. I hope good health sets up a permanent address within each of you. I hope that peace on earth isin't just a line on next year's Christmas card.
Happy New Year!

Katie and Andy looked great. And it was wonderful to see their whole family at Christmas. My one regret is that I could not spend Christmas Day with my fiddler kin. Being on the road on Christmas Day leaves a lot to be desired. We ate at I Hop in Salina. Many people eating there were visiting loved ones in the hospital. That certainly puts things in perspective. I do not know how Katie and Andy handle traveling long distances so gracefully. I guess they have their own way of keeping life in perspective. People I encountered in the days leading up to Christmas were exceptionally kind to me. I guess kindness and love are the season's greatest gifts.
Thanks for sharing your blessings, Margaret. My Fiddler Kin are certainly a blessing in my life. :)
Mmm, IHOP. I think they serve corned beef hash there. Yummy. Although I guess you don't eat that anymore (if ever), Honor.
I am happy that my Fiddler Kin are happy and healthy--I hope Tom Conlin is feeling better though. It was good to see almost everyone while I was back in Kansas.
Little Jacob is a character. I don't think it's possible to stop smiling when he's around. :)
