December 26, 2007 Day 251
Christmas day was actually quite delightful. Cooking and baking has always been therapeutic for me, as long as I didn't feel rushed. The pies and apple crisp turned out great, and the turkey as well. After dinner we played round robin games of ping-pong with the kids until Gene had to go home and milk the cows.
This morning's drawing was a study in greens:
Then I had to finish writing our annual Christmas letter to friends and family, which will be late this year. It begins, "We're still alive!"
(Note: There is a gap between the dates I'm writing and posting in order to give me time to get ahead.)
