A Quiet Holiday

I spent a quiet Christmas visiting with a friend.  It was absolutely dead at my house.

My friend fashioned a tree out of a cactus while I cooked an omelet breakfast.  It didn't look like much but it was tasty.

I received some wonderful presents from friends and a couple of my siblings.  A running vest, a novel, a sweater and a few other useful items.

For the first time I drank a beer that had a cork and wire as its closure.  It was tasty.

I spoke with a couple of family members.  My brother visited my sister out west and everyone else seems to have spent Christmas at home.

Happy holidays to everyone.  I'm looking forward to 2015.
