Goodly morning all...yes it is Christmas Morning here in Canuckland....I started calling the grandchildren and great grandchildren around 05:30hrs. as well as some neighbours children to let them know Santa Clause had been, found they were all up...seems Santa Clause was good to them all...
Here in Canuckland where the Old Girl and I are there is no SNOW, that is unusual, the temperature is usually on the Minus Celsius Scale with a least a foot or two of snow for Christmas Day.
No SNOW forecasted until next week perhaps and the temperatures are on the Plus side of the Celsius Scale.
I need to do my Snow Dance before folks start going outside and mowing/cutting their lawns/grass
Will meet at the Bugsmasher Field around 10:00am to exchange gifts with the other Old Retired Rocking Chair Flying Geezers, we draw names and have a set limit which to spend. Works great and we have been doing this for years.
Then it is off to the Old Homestead, the Old Girl has been driving back and forth all week, our eldest son is away flying for God-Queen-and the Universe...
Will be home on the 6th of January.
However most of our other children are home this year with their families but did not make it to Ontario this Christmas, next year there will be several Family Reunions and one is planned for Christmas.
Well it seems the Old Girl just got off the phone again with our Daughter in Law and between the two of them all is going according to the great plan
