IT IS TWO DAYS before Christmas..
the shopping is not quite finished as
usual. What to get the kids,,notto
mention what to get for the be alf of
the family. I just don't know..and as
for my Mother..the thing is, what does
one get one's Mother. .expecially when
you haven't been able to have a visit
otherthan by letter or an occasional
telephone call. anyway I settled on..
guess what? (Actually, as you know,
this is written a week in advance, and I
haven't the slightest of a glimmer in my
little mind) maybe I'll know more next.
week..
If you are at all interested inthe
chrysanthemums on my walls, they are
going the way of all chrysanthemums..
Out! OUT! The realtor has told me that
we can paint them away, Away, AWAY!
And A MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU SIR!
Seemed more like Christmas last week,
at least the hail sort of made things a
little more Christmas like. The white,
white ot the roofs, and the way ir looked
on the holly tree..oh well, visions of
a white Christmas were almost here..
and may still be..but today is sunny
and almost warm..
Heard the jets flying over the other
night and thought again about the story
I was reading, and thinking again about
Pearl Harbor, andhonestly, how can one
really rest easily.. .and @..ececse0es
Merry Christmas to me..
MY SON keeps borrowing someones
bicycle and I rather think that is a real
broad hint..butI shall remain adamant.
The last bicycles in our family ended up
costing us a small mint..a broken leg,
a serious injury and the loss of a front
tooth..no more, no more..andA
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU TOO, SON!
I sound more like Scrooge every minute..and the Ghosts of Christmas Past
keep seeping in and around..and 1am
feelingrather grouchy..Christmas does
things like that to me..the friends that
are elsewhere..my family whichis separated by distance..andhappier lands,
and the fact that I am broke as usual..
and a merrier Christmas to metoo..
ANYWAY..enough of that sort ofthing.
The tree looks so nice..the parties are
many and varied..the people so courteous when you approach them for a picture.
AN ORCHID to the lovely waitress at
the Gold Center Club who thoughtfully
provided a cup of coffee when I was
waiting for one of the many party groups
to put in an appearance. ™
MULTIPLE ORCHIDS OF MANY KINDS
to the youngsters at school who put on
their plays, directed by hardworking men
and women who received naught But
thanks for: their efforts..the parades,
the many things brought for the needy.
the people who cooperated in fashioning baskets to be distributed..and our
nice boss who had a party for us at his
home in Peardale..the people who call
us to tell us the news..and the good
will toward fellow man that prevails..
BUT..can't you see the stores the
day after Christmas. . exchange! exchange !
Exchange! EXCHANGE! It doesn't fit, it
is the wrong color, I already have one
like it..egad, who would want that?
All in the;spirit of Christmas..
Well, anyway, there must be some new
babies that will just be satisfied in being
tbe club members. .
Ithas rained and everyone
who didn't feel "Christmasy"
does now, orso they tell me.
Therain meant a lot to everyone, but Gertrude Atha was
especially glad because it
