Well,my husband put our tree up the Sunday before Christmas. Better late than never. After he got it started, I helped. Not as much stuff as usual under it but I did manage to get a few treasured items hung on the tree. Here’s photo of the tree and of us as Bedheads on Christmas morning. Not the most flattering photo but it will be treasured never the less as this is our last Christmas while my son is still a kid…(18 years old is an adult).

Later on Christmas day my daughter and I rode with my son to Benton to see my family and have dinner. I have to say that while my son drove very well, I was stiff and uneasy the entire time.

Unfortunately, all good things have to end. After enjoying time off and trying to ward off dark thoughts, Monday morning meant waking early and heading off to work. A long day it was too.

While off, the kids were mainly gone and I vegged out on reading mysteries and watching television. I finished two books, managed a warm bath, cooked a couple of meals, watched some old movies and slept all I could.

I hope all of you enjoyed the holiday!
