 | | Hope everyone had a nice Christmas day.
Ours was quiet -- and WHITE! First white Christmas here in almost 2 decades, I think the weather folk said. All day long the snow fell. Didn't ever cover the streets, but the lawns are mostly white, and the trees and shrubs are cottony. My big holly with the red lights on it looks pretty neat with the snow flocking.
Since we went to dinner at my cousins' last night and looked at lights on the way home, we didn't plan to go anywhere today. No trips, visits or phone calls; just nibbled the Xmas cookies, watched "Miracle on 34th St" (which I'd never seen in it's entirety -- what good dialogue!), opened a few gifts, watched the birds eat seed off the front walk and tried to amuse the cat. (Too wet and cold for even my super-furry, over-blubbered feline to go out.)
I don't know how the roads will be, but we don't have any "must" appointments until Tuesday. I could live this way for a while.

| | I ventured out to get some chairs (long story). The highway is free, but our road is a nightmare, the road through the village is OK, and the street where I had to go was as bad as the one I live in. Still, I managed to get there and back two times (managing to put three chairs in the car per tour). I was lucky that my youngest son was there to help me get the chairs to the second floor. My eldest is ill with a very bad cough and the strain would have left him with coughing attacks and breathless, and my husband 'couldn't leave his PC game'. 
Oh well, son and I managed. Now my husband has gone to take his mum grocery shopping, but he didn't ask if we needed anything.
