I am always amazed at how much we can pack into December. Is it because it is the last month of the year, so we feel compelled to get as much as we can out of it? Or is it because there is so much activity for us between October and January, that it just snowballs under the weight of its own momentum?
We're still recuperating, the cough sneaks in and out, but is mostly gone. I went to see The Messiah in Hacienda Heights, a great way to jump start the holiday season for me (did I mention that already?). I took my parents to a bluegrass concert in Simi Valley last weekend. The Witcher Brothers were wonderful, and there was a young fiddler and a young mandolinist spotlighted; it was very impressive to see these very talented musicians in action. I am looking forward to seeing the Watkins family again later this month, with my dad.
I am wrestling with a nasty hijacker on our new pc. I am seriously considering doing a system recover back to day one, but I'm still not sure if that will get rid of it.
We have one more weekend of Old-Fashioned Radio Christmas. We got our Christmas tree last weekend, and I have just one string of lights on it. I'm sure the kids will prod me to get it done this week. I plan on making fewer tamales this year, since we are going on a road trip through the Southwest the day after Christmas. I'm still planning out the route.
I think that's it for now...I got my eyes dilated today, so I'm feeling a bit off-kilter. And I have those ridiculous looking plast shades on.
