Merry Christmas

It’s Christmas Eve
It’s that time of the year again.. yes, that wonderful season that we enjoy so much.

Beverly and I will be alone on Christmas Eve and enjoy the time together quietly. Later we’ll call family and wish them well as we wish they could be with us as we set by the fire this evening. Tomorrow we look forward to having Kevin and his family join us for supper and opening a few presents for the Kara and Zachary.

Wal-Mart
Beverly and I just returned from a short shopping trip at Wal-Mart. It was so interesting to watch people buying last minute gifts. I saw a man going down the sports aisle with question marks all over his face, and there was a little boy scratching his head and swaying side to side looking at some perfume.

We’re in for the night and I am glad for that.

News
It looks like Dad’s house in Knoxville is sold. We have a buyer and the closing date has been set for late January 2013.

I’m having hip replacement surgery next week on December 31. Yes. That’s New Year’s Eve! No wild parties for me this year! Ha! (I’ll be glad to get this done. I’ve been in much pain the last month or two.)

Looking Ahead
As we go into the new year, I have plans to continue this blog on a more routine basis. So I hope you will not forget about Tennessee Granddaddy and check in from time to time.

Best Wishes to everyone for a Merry Christmas and a very happy and prosperous New Year!
