BirdDancer, those cookies look great! I am not much of a cook.

Nothing really going on with me. We had an extended family Christmas at my parents' house on Saturday, saw my 2 sisters & nieces & nephews, grandmother, some aunts & uncles. It was mostly chaos with the kids opening gifts, stuff & people everywhere, a bit crowded actually, but it was nice outside though it was windy, and my mom put up 3 tree swings for the kids.

Yesterday, I finally did the Christmas wrapping. I hadn't wrapped a thing. I can't seem to get myself into a holiday spirit at all. H finished the Christmas shopping for our daughter. I made a mistake and got the Christmas ham and some food today. All the stores were packed. I also had to get some food for the rest of the week. We just finished eating lunch at 2 PM.

It's been warm here, even for this area of Texas. The predicted high tomorrow is 69F. We have not had a Christmas this warm for years, but it happens sometimes. Maybe the warmth is why I can't really get into it this year. I always have a hard time for the holidays, but this year is especially hard, and I don't know why. Maybe because H has a new job and how his schedule is going to work is up in the air. Not to mention the medical, dental, and vision insurance will change. It will be better insurance it looks like but how long to take effect? H goes for orientation Jan. 3 and will learn more then.
