DAY 2102

It is Christmas day today for everyone. I had a Christmas party on the 23rd so we celebrated with friends and family. We had lots of food and good fellowship with laughter and a few memories shared. I am under the weather today with a head cold and the flu so I will probably go back to bed for a bit. It is just me and Ed today.

I was thinking back and I remembered all the years of children’s laughter and fun of opening gifts year after year with my grandchildren and children. Christmas doesn’t feel quite the same anymore. It’s lost its spark and fun of the day.

I got some socks and a snuggy blanket from my friend. I got a Tim Horton’s Tim card for coffee that was cool too.

I got a phone call from my brother this morning. His wife Karen is in the hospital with some knee and arthritis problems. She has been there for about a month. She can’t walk and she has her good days and bad days. Josh was sad that he had a tree up and no one to share it with.

I was glad to hear from Vinny on Facebook it made my Christmas. I gave him my phone number. Maybe someday he will call me in the future.

I’m going to visit with Jackie (daughter) tomorrow on Boxing Day and deliver presents and gifts for my granddaughters Jauna and Jayden. My great grandson Adrian’s first Christmas this year so that will be a treat to give him a few presents and see his reaction.

I hope everyone has a Happy and Merry Christmas today and has fun enjoying your children and opening presents and all that mushy stuff. Cherish the memories and give your kids an extra hug or two.
