Everything is relatively clean and organized - except my closet. THAT is a four-star disaster at the moment.

Grandpa, DIL, and Grandson and I went to the cemetery this morning. Little One wasn't freaked out about it at all. He was amazed to find his name on Great Grandma and Great Grandpa's stone.

I like his reaction to the cemetery.

I do, too.

We played between the candlelight services tonight. Our leader was out with a stomach bug, and I filled in for her. I did okay, but I think one song was marked wrong.

This particular hibiscus hasn’t really bloomed much this year, so this really is a surprise.

I am curled up on the sofa, dressed in a fleece pullover and sweats, and under a fleece throw. This apartment is very drafty and my little heater can’t keep up when it’s windy or cold. I am unwinding from 1.5 years of way too much to do.

These tamales are enormous and they are enormous in flavor. The masa is soft and delicious while the pork is tender and delicious. I am very happy.

I was a reader for the Christmas Eve service. I read the story of the wise men. From King James. THE WAY IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE.

I like King James at Christmas. I like the wording. It's so much more poetic.

The news here in LA is the weather. We were warned of an atmospheric river, possibly 8
inches (!) of rain and flash floods through Saturday. We could flood with much less than that. I canceled an appointment and declined an invitation. It has rained all day, but has let up at times, helpfully.
