I celebrated the day by doing some laundry. I had a little free time and wanted to get it out of the way. Now I'm relaxing. I'll soon watch a movie.

I also did a load.

Keith's cousin set up a Zoom visit with her family as they are celebrating his uncle's 93rd birthday today. It was nice to be able to do a video chat.

Guess I'll finish the operetta now. I wrote the first five pages of will hopefully be the new book - I always do that - write some pages before the January 1 start, so that I'm off and running. I made some decisions on the form of the book, made some notes and I just started and am enjoying beginning a new journey with new characters.

After the mentions of Christmas in Connecticut, we decided to watch that.

The story out of Nashville today is very scary.

Finished with my viewing and listening to the symphonies of Kurt Atterberg, a fine composer.

Since before the Vixter came along, and all through her growing up, our family tradition has been to bake blueberry muffins on Christmas morning

vixmom · « **Reply #106 on:** December 25, 2020, 09:10:20 PM »

Then we make a nice pot of tea and enjoy tea and muffins hot from the oven while opening our gifts

vixmom · « **Reply #107 on:** December 25, 2020, 09:10:39 PM »

Vixter has continued the tradition with her beloved

For the past 4 Christmases we have breakfasted together while opening presents via the wonders of video conferencing

vixmom · « **Reply #109 on:** December 25, 2020, 09:12:11 PM »

We used to Skype but this year used FB video call which was my ch easier and never froze once

vixmom · « **Reply #110 on:** December 25, 2020, 09:12:24 PM »

So that was a delightful hour

vixmom · « **Reply #111 on:** December 25, 2020, 09:12:45 PM »

It cheered Vixdad up immensely

vixmom · « **Reply #112 on:** December 25, 2020, 09:14:23 PM »

He was not feeling much in the spirit having spent 45 minutes starting at 1:45 am, standing in gale force winds and driving rain while trying to reinforce the fence that was trying desperately to lie down

vixmom · « **Reply #113 on:** December 25, 2020, 09:15:29 PM »

Oncme he came in and got dry and warm he had a restless night with the wind and rain and the dread that we were about to lose roof shingles or siding

vixmom · « **Reply #114 on:** December 25, 2020, 09:17:15 PM »

It appears the siding is intact but we’re not entirely sure about the roof shingles

vixmom · « **Reply #115 on:** December 25, 2020, 09:17:34 PM »

But I digress

vixmom · « **Reply #116 on:** December 25, 2020, 09:18:11 PM »

(I know!How unusual!)

vixmom · « **Reply #117 on:** December 25, 2020, 09:19:23 PM »

After the lovely video chat I got together the foodstuffs and presents that needed to be brought to my Mom’s

vixmom · « **Reply #118 on:** December 25, 2020, 09:22:07 PM »

We got over there around 2:30 and I put the potatoes in to start roasting and then we settled in for a nice chat with Vixdad’s sister and her husband, currently in lockdown mode in NW Canada

What a lovely night! A wonderful dinner, "Wonder Woman 1984" and some great friends.
