With a soft blanket of fluffy white snow falling, a cool wind blowing and all the holiday lights aglow. If you paused just long enough to hear a Christmas Carol that you aren’t sick of yet, it almost feels “seasonal”. Then you realize that if you have to drive anywhere, or do anything today, the roads, and thus the traffic will be worse than usual. Oh dear!
But it’s Sunday and we don’t have anywhere to go, and nothing to do. The kids can watch The Loud House Christmas Special, and I can shovel the drive way, and patio and paths in peace. Test out my new winter coat, since my eleven year old jacket finally crapped out. I have some presents for the kids arriving from extended family today, so I can wrap those this afternoon/evening. Or whenever the last of the parcels arrive.
Yesterday we had a family vote on potential puppy names. Though we won’t be in a position to adopt a new pet for atleast another eighteen months. The kids were adamant we begin the process of picking names for a dog. Right now the front runners are, in no particular order : Kevin, Green and Max. A strange mix if I do say so myself. I also don’t imagine the kids will forget these names when we are actually ready to go and choose our new family pet. Gotta love it.
