Who will be visiting DU on Christmas??
Edited on Thu Dec-18-03 02:53 PM by SoCalDem
We had our holiday trip to visit our son & daughter in law at Thanksgiving, another son lives in Seattle, and will not be here, the youngest's fiancee has a LARGE family who adores Christmas frou-frou, so we have told him to just go with her and enjoy the day..

The "old man" & I will be here by ourselves this year. We have not done a tree for ages, so it will be a day like any other,,, We gave ourselves an early present (the new leather furniture)..so no presents..

We might paint the living room, but I am sure I will escape to DU at some point.. Who will join me ???

There will probably be nothing open, so I guess I'll have to cook something.. bummer :(

1. I'll probably pop on to say hi.
Dinner at mom's will be in the afternoon, but I'll probably head down mid-morning. I'll be back home in the evening too.

2. Hopefully I will
A couple of my family members "wear me out" as the saying goes, so I'll try to drop in. :hi:

3. I will be around some on Christmas.
Heading to my sister's for dinner, will be home at a decent hour and then will check out DU again. At least I don't have to go to work the next day. :)

4. Hi there SoCalDem, how are all those cats!
I will probably post Christmas afternoon after I get back from my Mother's house just to "unwind" and relax.

I am spending the night over there Christmas Eve and not really looking forward to it for reasons I won't get into here.

7. They are all grown up and have turned "sleepy"
Edited on Thu Dec-18-03 02:58 PM by SoCalDem
We only have two or three MAD CHASES through the house per day now.. Most of their time is spent "conserving energy"..

I still have Marvin on my shoulder most of the day and Sammy on my keyboard, and Sara still wants to "nurse" my earlobe.. I am "weaning" her since she insists on slobbering down my neck..Ick!!!..

My babies are all grown :(

11. I'll need to decompress
sometime in the afternoon. I got out of going to my mother in law's thanksgiving, but, I don't know how I'm going to wriggle out of this one, unless I wake up with a fever of 102 and wretching I'm stuck.
Fortunately, I'll have my own car and if the freepers get too hard to take I can clear out, but I'll leave Marshmallow there and come home.
