Jen spoiled me with junk food and treats.  Canadians of a certain age remember a drink called Tahiti Treat that doesn’t exist anymore.  Jen found something called Tahitian Treat fruit punch that I hope will be similar.  This was quite a nice batch of sugary snacks.

There were other assorted cool things too, such as comic books, funky socks, a hat with a light, and sardines!  I also received Moby-Dick and look forward to the reading challenge.

For those curious, yes I did sabotage my mom’s Christmas village one more time.

Unfortunately, we also received the call this morning that Grandma has Covid again, which means we won’t be seeing her tonight.  She’s none too happy but we will see when she’s well again.  This is round two for her.

This Christmas I want to express gratitude to everyone who is in my life.  This was a great Christmas.  I even got a toilet light!
