What a week this has been around the Home Office! I thought that having Christmas and the first day of Hanukkah fall on a Sunday (and on the same day) would have made things easier for everyone, but if my experience is typical, the schedule was a bit harder than it has been in other years.
I guess I brought some of this on myself. Christmas Eve was sunny and an unusually warm 55 degrees Fahrenheit (13 degrees Celcius). How could I pass up the opportunity for a half hour ride on my new Trek 1500? I haven’t had time to write a review, but Kathleen’s verdict is in. After a ride down the driveway she said, “Oh it’s so smooth!”
Fourteen people spent the evening in our living room in Newtown, PA last night. The Christmas Eve get-together for our families has become a tradition since Kathleen and I got married. This year there were two regular digital cameras and a Nokia N90 in use, so we almost ought to start our own Flickr Photo Pool. Maybe I’ll have time to post a few photos of the festivities tomorrow, but we’re at another family party today– there won’t be time now.
Merry Christmas and Happy Hanukkah to all Operation Gadget readers and to my friends and family. Now that we’ve done most of our gving to others, I hope you all get something you really want from someone special.
