Today I have to stay in waiting for the UPS guy, tracking says some
time today - he is bearing a gift my SIL has bought for my daughter. I
know what dead meat he would be if he didn't get it in time, so I
obliged. The morning brought my middle grandson and his wife, fresh
off the red eye flight from Alberta en route to her mothers - they are
only here six days so have to spread it around, will see them again
Xmas Eve.

Starting to feel a bit like Xmas, well the side of it I like, the
people.
