Good Morning!


Fig 1. The matutinal view from my deck last Thursday. I’m pretty sure I wouldn’t have seen this if I wasn’t working.

One nice thing about having a pregnant wife who is in nesting mode is that she makes short work of Christmas. When I woke up yesterday morning, D. had already wrapped everyone’s presents and was heading out the door to Mailboxes Etc. to mail them off to the appropriate family members. D. and I have the same view on Xmas: Get it over with.

So I went down in the basement, braved the black widows, and got all of our Christmas stuff out. The tree is now up and decorated.

Today we will print the envelopes for Christmas cards. We will also bribe S. with Altoids to put on a Santa hat and sit still in front of the tree.

    What happens when S. is no longer satisfied with Altoids? Will you move her onto harder stuff?
