Getting Close . . .

Christmas is just three days away. And Master Will arrives tomorrow from the Frozen Nawth bring his parents with him. He is a traveler, been to California, born in New York and resides in Wisconsin. And he is only 13 months old!

The weather is suppose to turn nasty, rainy and the temps will drop. Probably going to be cold Christmas Day. That's okay, it is a "inside" time of year. Forays outside are to get food at the markets or to dine out, shopping be done.

We are getting a Christmas card or two, not that most are slowly going our way, no cards. Another loss to the Post Office, traffic is down. Packages coming by UPS or FedEx, few if any by the USPS. Wonder how much longer it will stay in business, it is already turning into an Albatross. Another quasi government business, probably will get bailed out in the future.

I thought today about my father, he never really saw the computer revolution. It has all really occurred after his death. Surely, my mother never had an inkling about them. Paw Paw may have seen an Apple II but I doubt it would have interested him. Today, he would have been over joyed not to have to work up the weekly payroll. He had wrote all those pay checks for years upon years, now it is a touch of a button, all done. He missed it, it has all really been after his day as a business man, manager and business owner.

Happy holidays to you all . . .
