Anniversary Greetings
A belated Happy Anniversary to my brother Tom and my sister-in-law Charlotte, who celebrated their eighth wedding anniversary yesterday. (I did remember to send them a card on time, though.)

Birthday Greetings
Happy Birthday to my favorite (and only) sister-in-law Charlotte (who's celebrating her "Happy To" Day, as my niece would say it).

Christmas Stuff
Weather: Cold, but sunny and clear.
Music: Nothing at the moment.
Mood: Pretty good.
What I'm doing right now: Decluttering the house and taking down some of my Christmas stuff.
We almost had a white Christmas this year--there was a prediction of snow on Christmas Day but we didn't get any until the next day. This is what my yard looked like last Wednesday morning:
The snow stopped by early afternoon, and by 4:00 it had warmed up enough that almost all of it had melted and dried up.
Christmas week was a little busier than usual . . . I got to spend a lot of time visiting with friends, catching up on movies, and eating a lot more than I should have. It was a lot of fun, but I'm kind of glad it's all over now so I can spend a few days at home catching up on other stuff.
I spent Christmas afternoon at my brother Tom's house, enjoying a truly wonderful turkey dinner (did I mention that he and Charlotte are really good cooks?), visiting with the two of them and watching my niece Emelia enjoying her presents, which included a fairy dress, a new chair, and a really cool electric car (which she was a little wary of at first because of one the sound effects):
I've got some other ones, but it'll be a few days (probably longer) before I can get them resized and posted.

Anniversary Greetings and Sunday Photo Blogging
Happy Anniversary to my brother Tom and my sister-in-law Charlotte, who are celebrating seven years of marriage today.
************
Today's pictures are some that I took in my yard, just for fun.
The first two are of some of my daylilies:
The third is of one of my white crepe myrtles, which just bloomed for the first time this year:
The last is of my poor overloaded peach tree:
Some of the peaches are finally getting ripe enough to be picked, so I'm hoping it won't look this way too much longer.

Birthday Greetings and New SoonerCon Link
Happy Birthday to my sister-in-law Charlotte (hope the card I sent got to you on time).
************
I found out a few days ago that SoonerCon has opened an online store where they're going to be selling t-shirts, caps, posters, coffee mugs, tote bags, and maybe some other stuff later on. Scooter says check it out. (I've added it to my list of local science fiction links in case anyone needs to find it later.)
