Good Morning  on this rainey Christmas Day...
Currently 60F cloudy   High  64F heavy rain  with a  Low 45 F .

{{{CLynn}}} hope, some how,  the morning finds you doing better

Tig shucks about the fudge and the game. Any clues to why the fudge went awry?

Karen yummy dinner for you last night. And, a happy Christmas Eve you shared with neighbors   too.

KB cute Christmas greeting today. Indeed for the child in all of us.

Hi Emyrauld hoping your  Christmas will still be special.  And, who knows it may yet snow your way.

BL LOL Kopje . So far Maggie has been exceptionally good about her present.  We opened a bottle of raspberry wine and toasted  our glasses...sadly not to a roaring fire place like you and Pip. Thanks for the tune

We had homemade thin crust pizza topped with alfredo sauce fresh spinach BumnbleBee canned  chicken breast (white) flaked,  sliced black olives and shredded parmasean, tossed green salad w/ olive oil vinaigrette.  No leftovers.
I'm up stairs and heard a comotion below  :o ---Maggie all big-eyed in the chair next to me and Jim tucked in bed. Santa knows where I set the glass of milk and plate of  chocolate chip cookies and carrots.  ;)

I saw several versions of these  images and paintings yesterday.  And, thought " Why not happen?"   

 But, this particular one caught my eye and captured my heart.  Saint Joseph's gaze---who has his attention? And, why  so fixed? And, then I realize...Oh yes!

Puff somehow I missed what my lucky guess was, but I've been fortunate enough to have missed many of them.  ;)

The trip is all about I have no Idea but I like it as my travel partner once said.

We where sitting on a beach on this night some time ago on this planet.

How can one say anything or properly retort to that.

Luv the quote BL.  So true. . .

No, you gave me the clap on the back over my guesstamate of O'Hare being about 10 sq.mi. as opposed to Midway 1 sq.mi.

Very curious kareng - you make a lot of mentions of the city and neighborhoods in Chgo where I spent between 1956-1971.  Actually grew up for about 8 years on north side of city - now trendy old town.  We got out because things seemed to be going downhill.  Spent a lot of early teens at North Avenue Beach.  Outcome for Old Town - put facades on the buildings and yuppies took over. You know what that means $$$$$.

Anyway we went south and west to Midway area.  Grade school = Mark Twain    High School = Kelly High School   College = Chicago Teachers College  Career = CPS Teacher 30 years.  Left the city (except for occasional White Sox Game) in 1971 for the big west DuPage County, Darien.  Travel Advisor now, here, for about 30 years.

Ooooops, we aren't suppose to post personal info.  :-\  At least I didn't post my address.  But I just wanted to pin down our close history.  It sounds like we just missed each other?  Tsk is even not far, far away; 15 miles?

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE

KAREN   Enjoyed your memory of Midway.  Everyone still calls it Old Orchard but is owned by a big conglomerate as many things are.  How nice that Piper had a play date and you had some pleasant conversation  ;D  I will make 3 meals out of the rib eye steak Tim got each of us for last night's dinner  :o :o :o

EMY   That is so true - We have not had snow for Xmas in a long time and agreed it just doesn't feel the same.  And it has been way too warm for us.  Have a Merry Christmas.  :)

BL    Words to ponder...

KB   Amazing!  Flying reindeer  :o ;) ;) ;)

PHYL    And why not....Interesting depiction of the birth.

Old Orchard now Westfield Old Orchard.  Makes sense.  Now owned by huge Paris company - makes no sense?

Good Morning Beakers!  Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas !

And, a most joyous and blessed day to you and your families.
 With love, Jim, Phyllis and Maggie, too.



Tsk    Re: 'Why not happen?' Yes it is interesting.   

{{{CLynn}}} so nice to hear from you this morning. Thank you for the Christmas greeting. Sure hope you're doing, at least, some better. Wishing you a blessed Christmas with your mom, Ed and Kelsey.

Tig I always thought fudge a 'tricky' confection to make. I've never made the stuff ...So-to-speak,  you will ever be one up me. LOL  :-*

Lori tks for the special Christmas greetings.
Y'all thanks for the Merry Christmas greetings.


BTW: 'Pope Benedict' kitty wasn't posted for laughs, etc.
