We in the choir have to be in church at 10:15 PM for Midnight Mass, which will last until 1:30 AM. Then we're supposed to start singing again at 7:30 AM for 8 AM Mass. Choir directors are monsters this time of year. Merry Christmas to everyone, even to you who are choir directors. -Joe- |

Himself and I are having a quiet morning then heading out to a restaurant for A Nice Christmas Lunch, instead of just sitting round grinning at each other. Our Canberra son and his fiancée will be visiting for a few days on Friday, and we hope - ice storms and power outages permitting - to have a skype chat to our Canada son and girl-in-law. Happy Thingmas and Seasonal Whatevers to all, whatever you celebrate! |

24 Dec 13 - 06:44 PM (#3586390) Subject: RE: BS: It's Christmas Day From: jacqui.c Almost midnight and the house is quiet. Grandson was sent to bed earlyish in order that his iMac could be set up in his study, ready for the morning. He is under orders to stay in his room until 7.30, at which time he can come to me and we'll make tea and take it up to his parents for stocking opening. I love the family Christmas traditions. Even now he's thirteen he becomes a little boy again at this time of year. |

Chilly, clear night and the moon has just risen over the horizon, shining brightly as it moves up behind the trunks and bare branches of the trees in the small woods across the way. Santa has just finished filling the stockings here, and took off again, headed west. Happy Christmas to all. |

We've just had the main course of Christmas dinner (a very nice chicken with all the trimmings) and a really good 2009 white Burgundy. Christmas pud is on its way and I'm typing this with "Singin' In The Rain" on the TV. Again... Madame F. LOVED her pressies, I got a great wallet. Mum-in-law is flabbergasted by her new iPad and what it can do. We've had torrential rain, thunder, sunshine and everything in between. All is quiet - until the grandkids descend on us tomorrow...

26 Dec 13 - 04:25 AM (#3586684) Subject: RE: BS: It's Christmas Day From: Amergin I gave one of my grandmothers a couple of chapbooks...one published last year...and one that will be officially published next month, an unpublished poem about her late husband....and I printed out Home For the Holiday for her...she has never read it....and some how didn't know that I write poetry and prose...she was quite impressed. She had me read one...and I read about a childhood memory about finding the right Christmas tree in the hills of North Idaho.... Then, she read a poem from one of the chapbooks....and I kept saying no you don't want to read that one...not aloud to the group...it was very erotic. My face was burning through out her reading it....Good thing it wasn't one of my more explicit ones...that would have been unbearable. Then, at the end of that chapbook is a poem I wrote almost 11 years ago...and on the tenth anniversary of her first Christmas with out my paternal grandfather, she read a poem about his death....her voice breaking as she realised what it was about. She loved it though. |
