Back to Normal

You can tell Christmas is over. This morning as I began to read the Springfield News and Sun. The front page was filled with a couple of murders, a deadly home blaze, and a church being robbed as the congregants celebrated mass. Things are getting back to normal.

A LOVELY HOLIDAY!

Well, it is Tuesday, the day after Christmas, and I am back at work. We had a lovely Holiday. We enjoyed some inspiring music at the Christmas Eve service, saw an interesting movie, enjoyed the company of a few friends and family, and ate some tasty food. What more could a man ask for? The car business is typically busy over the next few days, so I came in a little early today, in order to prepare for the rush. Hope you have an enjoyable day.

Relaxing Christmas Eve. Morning

Spent the early morning hours of Christmas Eve. Listening to Christmas carols intermixed with the Red Hot Chilli Peppers! (How did they get on the playlist?) Straightening the house and smoking a very good Rocky Patel cigar! Playing the rest of the day by ear. Have a nice day!

Movie and a Pizza


After work on Saturday me and a couple of friends headed to Club North, for a couple of Christmas beers. Later Michelle and I saw the movie; “The Good Shepherd,” at our local cinema. Then headed off for a slice. It was a good start to the Christmas weekend!

What a freakin long day! Traffic at the Dealership has ground to a halt. It is the time of year, I realize that, but I am ready to flip out!
