Happy Yule and Happy Hanukkah!
John spent the day helping Jerry and Dale fix a leak in the roof of their mobile home since there's a storm on the way tomorrow, and by the time he was done, it was time to light the first candle on the menorah, so Dale made him stay for that. They were both here Friday night when I got home from work; I joined everyone on the patio while I opened a package I'd gotten of some holiday ornaments I was planning to give to people at work. Some of them were these here
and John said show those to Dale, she's a cat person (they say "Love Me, Love My Cat"). When I did, she started gushing and thanking me, so oops, I guess I need to order another. They're welcome to put it on their tree/Hanukkah bush (yes, they have both - Dale is Jewish and Jerry is a non-praticing Mormon - I don't think I've ever seen him playing darts here without a can of Bud).
Kids are off starting tomorrow; I didn't really ask for time off, but my boss was cool with my working half days while they're on vacation. I figure I can go in and be back before anyone's really up and doing anything and we'll have the afternoons free, at least.
