Well, we blew Christmas.
Got weathered out of our planned road trip to our daughter's near Boston.
And we both came down with the local bronchial virus here anyway.
*cough*hack*snort*
Chicken soup for Christmas dinner.
Nyquil chaser.
blah, hub-bug

Just about recovered from the blah, so now we're going up for...
INAUGURATION DAY!
We'll celebrate with champagne and watch it all on their Big Screen teevy.
Do a late Christmas, gifts and stuff.
Darlin' Daughter says she'll leave the tree up.
YEA!

P.S. Our 1st grader grandson has inauguration day off from school.
How cool is that?
:-)

3. "christmas" can be celebrated at any time!
I'm so glad you'll be able to celebrate with family and that your Grandson has the day off! Enjoy!! I'll be hoisting a glass of champagne in Dublin!

4. If I were there I'd be hoisting a Guiness with you. Or three.
I have a good friend from Dublin who is working in Dubai now.
Ireland is one of my favorite countries.

8. Actually, we have another one coming tonight. I postponed Christmas
too and told Will and Cailen to wait for better weather. They are supposed to come on Thursday but that might not be in the cards. :hi: back to ya!

9. Well, we're flying this time.
Around a week from tomorrow.
So we only need decent weather in Dallas and Boston.
*fingers crossed*
Our friends in Merrimack were without power for over a week last time.
