Today is called Boxing Day in Canada. Must be because you box up the stuff you don’t want or that doesn’t fit and send it back. For us, Lori and I are headed to Denver to return a car load of stuff. More on that later.
Yesterday was a nice day. We woke early and had our Christmas which the boys loved. We did really well for them this year for the most part. Then after some 24 hour French toast Lori made, we were off to Denver. We picked up Dixie and headed to Tom and Ali’s. When we arrived Ali was out getting her dad. Earl had a nice time and is doing really well for 89. We all had a nice time before taking Dixie home around 3. She commented a few times how that was the first Christmas she’d been to with no alcohol. Not sure what she meant but I think she wanted some. If so she should have said something, ha. You see Lori, Ali, Earl and I were not drinking and I think Tom, if he had anything, might have had a beer before we arrived. I didn’t think twice about it until she mentioned it. Oh well, we had a nice time and Tom made a great prime rib and had leftover ham from the night before.
When we made it home the boys ran out to get sushi to go and Lori and I grazed on leftovers. We were going to go to the gym this morning but I think we’ll go after we get back so we can try to get down and up. Lori didn’t sleep much so she’s pretty tired this morning and moving slow. Tomorrow Lori is flying Dixie home which is good as it’s been a long trip for her and I think she wants to get back to her familiar surroundings. We offered to take her to see where Earl lives as he just loves it and it’s close to Greg and Jae’s and Tom and Ali’s but I don’t think she wants to go. Hard to make that decision. Saturday Lori will fly back to Denver and I’ll pick her up in the afternoon. What a good daughter to fly there and back twice to get her Mom. She does so much for Dixie that it’s almost like she’s a hired caregiver only she doesn’t get paid, ha. That’s it, time to get moving, God Bless.
