Merry Christmas!
Dec. 25th, 2007 06:40 pmWarm and cozy, surrounded by people I love.
Charlotte and Adam cooked a great dinner, and Billy's father and stepmother came over, and there was good conversation and good food. Prime rib, roast chicken, green bean casserole, cucumber salad, roasted potatoes and vegetables, and sweet potato pudding served in cupcake tins with melted marshmallows on top. It was quiet and sweet, and now we're watching movies, the four of us.
It hasn't snowed since the beginning of December; today was bright and sunny and kind of warm. I like it. But then, you all know I don't like snow and cold. This is one of the few times I can remember when it hasn't been a White Christmas. But it doesn't have to snow to be the spirit of a winter holiday.
I felt awful for still being in a fibro flare that made it difficult for me to help with the preparing and cleaning up. I did the best I could. I have a feeling this flare might last a while.
This morning, I finally managed to write past the block in the novel. That's a bit of a success. The right music playlist helped: Tangerine Dream, Deep Forest, Delerium, The Waterboys. Go me. I can actually finish the book now. I know where to go.
