I have been off WordPress since, I believe, Christmas Eve Eve (of COURSE I am too lazy to go back and check). I just typed in some 600 words about my parents’ house, coffee, tea, and the 21st century. It needs editing. I must say it is rather a joy to be composing at the keyboard. I have not even had a pen and paper in front of me in a number of days. I do not recommend fasting from writing. It feels good to get back at it, but I believe it would have felt better never to have stopped.
Here’s a festive lady!
No, I have not been away from the blog due to excessive consumption of wine, although those who know me may be forgiven for thinking so. I merely wanted to put in a Christmasy picture, and this is one I have not yet used. It is Lisa from Adirondack Winery pouring for a tasting at Valley Wine and Liquor in Herkimer, NY recently. I walked down specifically to see her. She is there on a regular basis, and we have become friends. I told her all my Christmas-related drama, and she told me some fun stories of her day job (she works in the school system). I had to take a picture of her seasonal outfit.
Still jingling all the way!
These slippers, a gift from my late husband Steven, made another appearance, as did the fun socks. I am Simply Having a Wonderful Christmas Time, as the song goes (I love that song). This is, as you may have guessed, another placeholder post, to keep my hand (fingers, really) in as a blogger (keep my finger in the blogger pie? Mmmm…. pie!). I need to begin my celebration of Boxing Day, or the Feast of Stephen, or perhaps Second Christmas (you know, like Second Breakfast). More blog posts to follow! Eventually.
