In The Aftermath
Well, the toilet paper may not have survived the holiday weekend but we did. As Cindy pointed out, it’s hard to get mad at them when you’re laughing your butt off. Of course the first thing R. said when we discovered the damage was, “Get the camera.” We use that phrase around here a lot [...]

Photos by Rana: The Calendar

Old Man Grinch
9 a.m.
Old Man Grinch just wouldn’t leave us alone. I’ve come down with a cold-like, postnasal drip, into my throat, sinusitis, nastiness thing and R. has been on the verge of tears for 24 hours. Ho ho ho. Merry, merry. Bah humbug.

A Christmas Vignette
Sunday afternoon Missy J. and I walked into Borders Books only to have our ears assaulted by the off key screeching of a woman decked out in full Victorian caroling garb. The costume was great but she was taking chances with her voice in public that made me wince for her.
Just as we scooted past [...]
