Holidays and Special People

I was writing Christmas cards today and will polish them off tomorrow. I do like to receive cards. They update us on the folks we don't see everyday, especially those who do not e-mail regularly or touch base on Facebook. 

This evening, we caught the promo for next week's Boston Legal, only to find out that Denny Crane is going to be diagnosed in early stages of Alzeheimer's. I hate that. I hate it that we know so little about that disease. Keith & I try hard to keep our minds active. The hard part is that the people we have known with Alzeheimer's also seemed to be active. We just don't have answers on that.

Harry Farmer is back to winter in Texas and we like that a lot! Harry is coming up to 95 and is still right on top of it all!  We'll see him in church every Sunday and spend some time with him during his stay. He's from Illinois - just like Keith and is very much like Keith's father was. Everyone should know a Harry Farmer. 

We have our gifts bought, have been practicing with Choir, and we are expecting Granddaughter Meghan to be home for a few days from South Korea. 

For Thanksgiving, we have been invited to dinner and only asked to bring some serving spoons. It'll work out because they will come and visit us on Christmas Eve. 

Christmas Eve is special because we have our beautiful Candlelit service and then family will come back to the house for buffet and gifts.

Hopefully you have some beautiful plans for this special time of the year, and have some of your tasks done. It's easier to enjoy when you have time to just sit down and enjoy. I wish that for you!
