Well today isn't Monday, it is a lazy Thursday. The rest of today and all day tomorrow here in Asheboro NC and then we pack up and head back to Jackson Springs for two weeks before heading home to PA for Christmas with the kids. I can hardly believe another year is about to close, December is here and before the aroma of Christmas cookies has left the house it will be time to roll south again for the balance of the winter. I'm looking forward to seeing the kids and the grands. Little Sarai will soon be walking, only a year ago I was home planning a surprise baby shower, now she is almost a toddler. Moyra and Joselin are growing up too fast. Affectionately named 'Squeek and Screech' have developed into the little actress and Papaws little yard nome.
Bittersweet today December 1st (12/1/02) as it is the 9th anniversary of my dads passing. Now we have Johnny Freemans birthday to remember. Sadness envelopes me on days like today. I will never stop missing my dad and wish I could hug away the hurt that accompanies the loss of a friend.
The sun is shining the air is warm, the Christmas lights endlessly burning bright in the front window the tree aglow on the side... I'm dreaming of a white Christmas. Until tomorrow...
