I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas.

Ours was very mellow, which was quite nice. Page played with the Wii till he got cranky and was pulled away from it, while Geoff and I watched several hours of Dollhouse on Amazon. We ended the evening with nice Chinese-ish soup (using up all of the chicken stock I'd started the day before), an early bedtime for Page (who was so over-stimulated that he was happy to go), and another couple of hours of Dollhouse.

All in all, a good day.

Geoff's at work today, but he's taking an extra long weekend tomorrow (not going back to work till Wednesday), which is something we're all looking forward to.

The only noteworthy presents were the aforementioned Wii, a new, removable plates, George Foreman grill, and Page's ornament (Hobbes aka Calvin's Hobbes). I'll take a picture of the latter one of these days before I pack up the tree (which won't happen for a few days yet). I might take a picture of my new skirts, too. And I might paint a picture (or more) of my ornamental tea pot. ;-)

OH! And Geoff got a DVD of Monty Python's Holy Grail! So that will be fun to share with Page one of these days. :-D

Anyway, gotta go do some clean up, and start some Christmas presents. (That strep throat was really quite ill timed.) I think our proper Christmas dinner will be tomorrow. That way, I can get Geoff to help with the prep. ;-)

Happy Holidays to all of you. May you notice the growing light around you (which is meant only figuratively for those of you south of the equator, I'm afraid).

My brother sometimes had to be pulled away from games when he got too competitive/frustrated/cranky as a kid.

I'm glad it was lowkey and enjoyable, and that you're on the mend. *hugs* Continue getting better!
