Holiday Angst?

Christmas was fun. We went to a pseudo family reunion on Friday night. On Saturday we cooked all day and had our kids, Evan and Rachael, over with their dates. Our family hasn't had a sit-down dinner in quite a while. On Christmas evening the six of us sat at the table for over two hours enjoying each other's company.

Today, everything tried to get back to normal but it wasn't. Can't get the body or the mind back in gear after a relaxing three day weekend. So we're taking tomorrow off to get ready for the New Years Eve party/open house.

Got a Husqvarna chain saw for Christmas. Pray for me and the trees.

The breeders outside have suffered through 6 freezing nights in a row (the low was 24). This week the temperatures will moderate with highs reaching 72 degrees by Thursday. Lows will remain above freezing for the foreseeable future. They won't know how to act. The Vos babies made it through well. Sonia kept them warm in the nest and Cal fed them often. They'll be coming inside the house on Saturday.
