Christmas all around…
Today was a day of surprises. I woke up to find Hyperion already out and about. He heard me moving around and said to come out on the landing. I did. What did I see? The Christmas tree just infested with tigers holding signs.
You see, along with collecting bears, we also have a fair collection of tigers (most from the same company). Some friends also have collected animals and we often will put them in situations and take pictures and share them around. So, somehow the tigers managed to print off signage, climb the tree with their signs and then go teddy for the day. (You know that stuffed animals have to always stay put when in the presence of people; a state that is called “going teddy”. That’s why you have to take pictures of them when they do things like this — of course, we keep hoping we’ll catch them at it someday but so far tigers — lots of points, and all us humans — zip.
We’re having a quiet Christmas watching Christmas movies, reading, talking and just enjoying each other’s company. Friends called earlier with good wishes. I sent out email wishes to friends today. My son just called — he’s also having a great day.
I hope that all of you reading this blog are having a great day of joy and laughter.
