Holiday Planning Bah

Here it is Christmas time again and our anniversary. We’ve been busy helping kids out lately and as usual everything has been poorly planned.

We have started on a trip to the southwest where it is forecast to be only 7F low. We only just realized that we left our warmest down jackets in the closet to stay nice and warm, while we on the other hand, freeze. Guess we will practice some running moves. But on the plus side, there is no rain or snow storm about to hit.

As for Christmas, we started looking early in November for grandkids presents and bought for the 3 youngest boys. And here we are on Dec 15, driving to the southwest while the presents are safely stored in our closet. Looks like, once again, the gifts will not get to kids in time. Our poor grandkids and their parents must get so tired of us and our ways.


We are, except for the being cold part, looking forward to this trip. We haven’t been away since Sept when we cut a vacation short in order to help out kids for the month of Oct. And with the forecasts of a strong El Nino on the horizon, we will have fun while we can.

  1. So good to hear that you have begun your trip. The presents will get to the kids and you'll be warm enough with layers hopefully. It's just good that your on the road to begin a new adventure together.
    Happy Anniversay....even though it's probably not yet arrived.
    Hugs and keep me posted. I am in Jacksonville until April 4th.

    Hugs to you both. G
