Soon..

Well, departure is getting closer and pretty soon the dreaded packing cannot be delayed any longer and must be undertaken…holy sheet!

Regardless of what either of us says, we’ll both pack what we want, need and a few things the other said were not needed just to drive each other bonkers. After 40 years of marriage we can still find ways to challenge each other and that includes the bonker number – gotta love it!

Last night over dinner we were talking about the trip and both of us had the same question or hope; “we will have heat in our compartment, right?” I mean, we have traveled by train before but during warm months, this is the first winter train trip so what in hell do we know. Could be a very cozy two days if there is limited heat!!! Naw, I’ll just fine the booze car and that’s body anti-freeze and that’ll keep the body warm and the mind numb. Hey whatever works, right?

The front page of the local newspaper is once again bringing us local cheer or at the very least, junk to mull over. Once again we are seeing the County Administrator under the microscope and for what, doing her job? How dare her do her job – for crying out loud, what in hell is she thinking!

Here is wishing all of you a very safe, healthy and happy holiday season – oh sheet, Merry Christmas everyone….keep smiling, laughing and reading my blog, leaving comments and staying sane. Once again, if we’re above ground and breathing we’re just dandy!!!
