There are three inches of snow on the ground at the homeplace.
There are several plump male pheasants hanging close to gobble up the
corn as soon as Dick throws it out on the driveway. The bunnies
are looking fat and sassy. The bobcat stills lurks.
Gladys and Dick are readying for the gathering at Ted's this afternoon.
Dick has made his Texas Caviar. They are happy and content. Glad to hear
from all their friends and family at this time of year. There
is nothing really that they need, nor want except for news of friends.
They are glad to know that family and friends
are safe and sound.
This morning a box of Belgian Chocolate Delicate Squares arrived
from new friends in Washington. What a thoughtful gesture. It
just made the day that much more special. Gladys really perked up when
she heard from the Postal Carrier that a package that looked like
candy was due to arrive at the mail box at 11:00am.
Dick and Gladys recieved a Christmas Card from Lorna and Spencer Antoniak
in Colorado. Lorna is Kay Martini's daughter. Kay was like a special daughter
to Gladys and one of Dick's best friends. Kay is missed but somehow hearing from
Lorna makes the day much brighter.
"Lorna is so much like her mother", says Dick.
