From My Desk on Christmas Eve …

First, I want to wish everyone a from our home within the home of the LP Journal.

This Christmas Eve was spent with my wife and son and tomorrow, on Christmas Day, we will be traveling by automobile to see Justin (Sharon’s son), Katie and two grandchildren, Megan and Julia. Of course, we have family elsewhere, but our Christmas festivities with immediate family will be in Wisconsin. We had a warm spell for a day or two and the snow was renewed with a fresh batch of the white stuff. While I was preparing my annual Christmas Day message, like Santa Claus who busies himself during the night in his part of the Christmas holiday, and while some folks are attending Christmas Eve Mass or other personal traditions – I bang away on the keyboard with thoughts of Christmas, family, friends and the universe in general. Thus, the title of this article being appropriately called – From My Desk on Christmas Eve.

Reading this you will notice that there are snowflakes falling across your screen. This is a Christmas present from Matt Mullenweg of WordPress to the bloggers, if they so choose to use it on their blogs. His Christmas story is linked above via his name and it is a good one I recommend checking out.

Sharon, my wife who is known as Kritter Girl and author of the adjoined blog entitled Kritter Korner, traditionally bakes four types of cookies and a batch of deviled eggs for Christmas Day.
