Who caught who?

I sat down to write an apology for not writing lately.  It's the Christmas season and I've got lots of things to do.  Also, some of my developer buddies are trying to close some deals before the end of the year.  Before writing, I decided to read my counter on the visitation thingy.  Come to find out, you've been busy, too.  Readership is a little low.......and I know why.

I still have a few more gifts to go, but I'm happy to report, I think I have things under control.  I trust that you have likewise found your calm demeanor.  We'll both get back on somewhat of a schedule soon. 

We've got to start some cooking soon.  We are all gathering at my daughter's for Christmas day.  This Christmas, I will have all my sprouts under one roof for a while.  That will be the first time in several years. I fully expect a joyful Christmas week this year.  I won't do much writing.  It's too hard to do with a great grandson crawling around my neck. 

I wish to thank you all for being my readers.  You're intelligent and care for Rowlett.  I wish you all the very best Christmas ever.  And, if you get a quiet moment, tip a glass in appreciation for the police and military service people.  If you've never been there, you can't imagine had stressful it can be.  They would like to be home on Christmas, too.  I was lucky.  I only spent one Christmas away.

And, yes,  you might tip the glass for our Rowlett "officialdom," too.   I lean on them some, but only for reasons that I think are justifiably debatable.  The elected officials  put in an awful lot of time for practically no pay.  They have a lot to keep track of.  They deserve all our thanks.

Merry Christmas to all!!  Have a great Christmas week!!
