The first from Howie

Christmas has come and gone. What a wonderful time it was. The eve was at our house. Good food, fun and my family. Not to mention the neat gifts. Thanks to all. Everyone pitched in to help Cath clean up. I feel guilty cause she does so much. I've told her many times of ways to make it easier, to no avail. I think she loves it.

Christmas day it was off to DE. My second celebration. Another place, family, food, fun and more gifts. Different, but as good as I could ask for. I enjoy the secret Santa. We start with the youngest. Each recipient stands in the center to meet their "Santa" and the surprise gift. Being the oldest I'm last. Got nice golf things. It's the highlight of the day in DE. Some laughed, a few cried. I have two families. How lucky can you get?

In my old drinking days, after a holiday, I always got depressed. I would have this over whelming feeling the party's over. Now events don't seem to end. Just new happenings start. I'm in a good mood. More later
