Yes, it’s time to update where we are on Christmas prep for the year:
- GIFTS: Helped Katherine pick out some gifts for the family at the Goodson craft fair on Saturday. Got my Secret Santa gift for — the person I am Secret Santa for. Margie and I both did some catalog sorting. Status:
- CARDS: Christmas cards have been bought (but not stamps). Holiday letter is not done. Twelfth Night date has been set but invites are not done yet. Address list has not undergone preliminary review. Status:
- DECORATIONS: Halloween/Thanksgiving are down. Boxes of Christmas stuff are upstairs. Tree is up, though one string of lights is not working. Still significant decorating to do, though Katherine is doing a good job of reminding us. Since we have folks coming over next weekend for Game Day, I believe, that gives us a nice deadline to focus us on the task at hand. Status:
- TRAVEL: Reservations are made. Days when I’m in the office are planned. House sitter engaged. We’re golden. Status:
This has been an update from Christmas Watch 2005!

Hmm… Does this mean you’re coming back to So Cal before I leave? My last day of work is Beethoven’s birthday. (I’ll have my birthday off for the first time in years.) I’ll be packing up until we leave on or about the 29th.
We’ll be in town just before Christmas.
