"Almost back to normal"

It's not that I don't enjoy the holidays, I guess I just am becoming an "old fart". We did have a good time having the grandkids over although we found candy-cane sticky hand prints all over the place. Pattye even found them inside her glass-walled shower. Hmmmm, I wonder how those got there?? We did have a chance to get with the Williams clan on Sunday over at Laura's house. I was very successful in trying every food item that was offered, except for the Costa Rican banana leaf-wrapped tamalies. Clark tried them and said they were pretty good.
Anyway, one more holiday (New Years) to get through and we can get back to a normal routine.
