i understand we are having ham , but thats not till friday , our family has too many bisected bits to get everything together perfectly every year so , we alternate around the other bits and this is our odd year out for either christmas eve or day , most of our family will be there along with my inlaw family , not perfect but better than nothing , it doesnt really bother me as i seldom if ever see my side of the family for a holiday , they are 300 miles south and thats mostly on I35 - not the best road when storms are moving this time of year thus i can just adjust to others ,
we have spent christmas eve at a church service that my daughter played violin [they did a number by "Tran Siberian Orchestra" that you all would recognize] that was fun save for the 60 mile drive to get there and same back in blowing snow/high winds ,
then we spent yesterday 'christmas' at the nursing home with my 90+MIL , that was actually very nice save the 50 mile drive there and same back in snow storm ,
we dont do new years stuff anymore , and i get to have a colonoscope the 2-3 of jan so that just tops off my bah humbug season fine
