Merry Christmas
It's Christmas Eve which means our family has been celebrating Christmas. We started with putting the tree up and getting it decorated. I went to church to direct the youth choir who sang Once in Royal David's City, and to sing in an ensemble (I think this has been my singing-est Christmas in years!) before returning home to continue our festivities. The presents are opened. The fondue is finished. The dishwasher is running. The kids have retired to the upstairs to collaborate on a Minecraft world. In Minecraft, as in life, they each have their skills and interests and deploy those skills in a cooperative effort over the Christmas holiday when both have extra time to just hang out...and play Minecraft. Joerg is checking out what the kids are up to (I think a heard him explaining what a LAN is). And I am ordering some supplies for next year while the list is fresh in my mind. Given the spate of "supply chain issues" we have had recently, perhaps if I order now
