Have Myself a Merry Little Xmas

It's going to be an interesting Xmas. My Mom is over my breaking her leg the other night. Well, sort of. No this isn't some weird case of domestic violence at a distance, we were on the phone and she went off to get something, and I heard the crash when she tripped. After a few minutes my Dad gets on the phone to let me know she's OK (aside from the probably broken bone and that she'll be right back...) ???! Um - shouldn't they be taking care of the injury? I love them dearly but sometimes I feel as if I'm trapped in a weird real-life sitcom. However, as a result the shopping's all done. :-)

We all went up to decorate their tree since she's in this huge cast (ours is slowly and incrementally getting done). Hopefully I'll begin to get to enjoy it this week.

No one's having any parties this year. Weird.

But as much as there's all this ritual in our family, and my parents go completely overboard, I always look forward to spending time with them around the holidays. We always DO have a fun time.

Got a card from my sister with a picture of my godson. He's growing up SO fast.
