My family had a wonderful Christmas brunch today, featuring mom’s home-made cinnamon rolls. Over the last few days we’ve created a “clay” nativity scene.

On a more startling note, a bird flew into our house. No kidding! I hear that it was in the garage and then flew from there, past my dad, into the house. Then it decided to visit my bedroom. Such was the state of affairs when I got involved in the chase. Stubborn critter! I’d try to shoo it out the door and it would fly in the exact opposite direction. Finally it flew off into another room and probably out an open window. Although we weren’t quite sure what happened to it. Mom though it flew into one room. One of my siblings thought it flew into another. I can’t say I didn’t get a surprise on Christmas! LOL

Would anyone else like to share how they’re celebrating Christmas?

Lee's Buffet

Three friends and I just ate at Lee's Buffet on the westside across the street from the mall by The Outback Steakhouse. Buffet's are never really very good, but you get a lot of food for little money.

I want to wish a happy day to all of the people who don't celebrate any of the holidays that come this time of year.

Rob,

still trying to feel out what this blog considers a hijack of a thread. I'm thinking your post is that?

As for celebrating Christmas this year, we did the family gig on Saturday. Many of the family had to work today.

Hope everyone had a good Christmas day and drive safe in the snow if you have to drive.

Krull -We were asked by the

Krull -

We were asked by the original poster how we spent the day. Rob answered.

Someone might elaborate or clarify but I understand hijacking to be intentionally derailing the conversation, either by going off-topic or in going on the attack.

Different people and different styles of posts seem to be a factor. I try to limit the kidding in serious conversations.

Please give me a second grace. Please give me a second face. I've fallen far down, the first time around, now I just sit on the ground in your way.

My Christmas

Spent it at the University of Washington hospital. Hung out with Deb's twins. Babies are pretty cool.
