December 24, 2024

            Good morning to all, it is Christmas eve, and for me it doesn’t seem like it is Christmas eve. My favorite wife and I were sitting outside yesterday afternoon as the weather was warm and the neighborhood was quiet, when I said, “It doesn’t seem like Christmas eve to me”. There we were sitting outside in the warm weather, no jackets on, while we were enjoying some restful time together, and it came to me, it doesn’t seem like it is Christmas eve. It is warm not cool or cold like Christmas time should be, I haven’t wrapped a single present this year, there are very few presents under the tree, it doesn’t seem like it is Christmas eve. Yes, we have decorations up inside and outside of the house but that doesn’t make it seem like Christmas eve. I did make that statement several times as we sat outside.

 


            Even that photo doesn't help me feel as if it is Christmas eve.

Different subject: I did get the yard man Alex over to our house yesterday and he removed the damaged 50-foot-long string of lights and then replace them. It took about 45 minutes to complete the entire job and then we headed to the chicken restaurant to get him some lunch.

            Our families are supposed to be here this afternoon about the time the weather is supposed to be bad. Having the family around will make it seem more like Christmas eve.

The prognosticators are predicting rain and storms around 6:00 this evening, so driving will be more difficult if the weather is bad. They say Christmas day will be warm and dry, then the day after more rain.

I did work on bible study homework yesterday, and I also went outside and picked up more of the acorns. They are difficult to see with the leaves on the ground and yes, we are getting more leaves.

Well, I don’t have anything else to speak of, so I will say have a good Christmas eve and try to be safe too.

December 24, 25!

May today be better than your best day, but not as good as tomorrow!
