Christmas Eve

Don't be surprised if i double blog tonight. Merry Christmas Eve. Slept badly last night, was up early, went to the office to wait on a UPS package. Actually got a few things done, left in mid afternoon and then went shopping for my last gift. And what a deal, all I can say now.

Christmas Eve always brings back fond memories from when I was a kid, going to Grandpa and Grandma Howell's house, seeing all my Aunts and Uncles and cousins. Playing cards when I was old enough, getting socks every year from my god parents, Uncle Laurence and Aunt Nona, all the cool gifts we got as kids. And then driving home, sometimes in the snow, and eagerly awaiting dawn to see what Santa brought. And Santa did not wrap, so it was a free for all.

Always missing my mom and dad and brother and sisters, aunts and uncles and cousins from up yonder this time of the year. Christmas Eve is always fun with the Schroll's, as is every Holiday event, everyone brings appetizers and then the free for all begins.

Will be spending some time tonight putting things together, a sofa for Grace for her room comes to mind. Merry Christmas.
