Sat, Dec 6th


Boy I will be glad when Christmas is here. This is like none I have ever known. It's go, go, go all the time. Today, we ran into town to do some errands. Stopped at the Co-op for Dawn's prescription, Woolworths for some household stuff, Messages for a handful of jars (I love jars), hardware store for screws and caulk, The Proper Cornish Shop (a new take-away in town) for an excellent Cornish Pasty, and finally our local frame shop. We'd seen a poster print of the Empire State Building last week and decided to check it out again. We ended up buying it as a belated 12th anniversary present for ourselves to commemorate meeting there.

At the house, I moved our dining table from the living room into the dining area. Dawn then spent the next couple of hours putting up the Christmas tree, while I made a large pot of chili and of spaghetti in the kitchen. We had already installed a new curtain rail and some blue curtains in the spare room, and I changed the front door bell. However, that wasn't without incident. But, I'll leave that for the moment.
