Hope you had enjoyable holidays with family and friends. I certainly did. Had family from Minneapolis here that I have not seen for years. They thought to warm up in Arizona. Fat chance! It was 28 degrees this morning when I got up. The older dogs wanted to come back in the house real soon, the young ones loved it and played to their hearts content. I personally positioned myself in front of the fire with a good glass of wine and great company. Flagstaff had 2 feet of snow and more to come. My daughter and son-in-law could barely make it out of their driveway but said the freeway was not bad to travel on. Now most are back home again to ring in the New Yea and I am trying to get my stomach back to where it was before all that sweet and rich stuff.
