Throughout the day I jot down ideas for blog entries in Notepad. When I get one completed I’ll cut and paste it into my blog. When I don’t update for several days, I end up with a backlog of entries that, reading back, don’t seem that important now. So, without anything earth shattering to report this morning, I’ll just summarize those entries to get you back up to speed.

My trip to visit friends in Arkansas last weekend got cancelled due to the weather. Hopefully we’ll be able to reschedule sometime right after Christmas.

Mason’s birthday is the 12th. Last weekend he and I found an indoor mini-golf course out at Crossroads Mall, and we’re going to have his birthday party there next Saturday at 10am. The golf course is very dark and lit only with black lights, so wear stuff that glows!

Last Friday, mom and I attended Robert McCanliss’ funeral. We saw a lot of old friends from the old neighborhood.

Exercise has become a pain due to the winter weather that blew into town. I’ve tried the treadmill; I hate it, but I’ll do it over nothing. Last night I just put gloves and a hat on and went walking around the neighborhood. I only slipped on the ice twice.

Sunday, while driving through our neighborhood, we spotted this. Ho, ho, ho.
