Count Down to Christmas

Since we didn't go out to lunch yesterday we went today.  Got haircuts in the morning and then a quick trip to Sam's Club and back to Red Robin for French Onion Soup and split a burger and fries.  The traffic was heavy but we weren't in a hurry.  Ron got the last parking space on that side of the mall.
The sun is refusing to shine today so he's pretty chilly.  I think it only got up to the low 50s.  Not used to the lack of sunshine.
When we got back and unloaded the truck I took a quick trip to the office to get the mail.  Another surprise box.  Two this week that have been a total surprise as to the sender.  A very pleasant surprise from our son, Bob, and daughter in law, Tara.  The first was apples, pears and tangerines ( I think Cuties) from California and the second cheese and sausage from Wisconsin.  They must know how much we like to snack.  Cheese, crackers, sausage and fruit are all our favorites.
Now that we have an abundance of food, we can stay at home, sit back and relax till Christmas morning when we will join Ron's foster brother and family for a combination traditional and Mexican breakfast.  Looking forward to the tamales and the biscuits and gravy the most.
