Christmas and beyond

First of all, thanks to Maureen and Fran for a wonderful Christmas dinner. Thanks to Patsy too. It was a nice day, even though I was late....so what's new? I just finished the Irish bread; it lasted longer than anyone would think.

I'm spending money like a drunken sailor, but on different things from what he'd spend money on. I have a new DVD recorder to transfer video tapes to disc. Why? Because it was on sale.
I've also joined Netflix; cheaper than a video store, but do I really watch that many movies? I'm on the free trial membership for now. I figure I'll try it for at least a month after that.

Little more than a week till the big trip.

It's festive!

My new Christmas tree looks great. It's different, that's for sure. If I can remember how to post a picture here, I will.

It's cold!

Back from Florida! Just a quick long weekend with the family, dinner with Jo-Ann and Steve at Grill's. If you ever get to the east coast of Florida, go to Port Canaveral and eat at Grill's. It's the best! Ate at the Lobster Shanty, Red Lobster, Sunrise Grill, and And All That Jazz Cafe. All good. But Grill's is the best; did I mention that?
Early mornings in Florida were chilly, but this week it's going to be in the teens here in RI. Too cold.
My computer is back, and working well. My TV came back last week....we'll see. There may still be problems.
