Hey!
next up:


This broken wing will fly again
One fine day
This blackbird's mute gonna sing again
One fine day

So all you sinners come out
And all you drunkards crawl out
Come into the light of one fine day

It's like 5:30am or so on Christmas Day, so why am I up so early ?? :? :? It appears that my internal clock is all whacked out, due to the weird hours caused by the OC Transpo Strike ....

Hope everyone has a wonderfuly and memorable Christmas .... ho ho ho ...

Going to run after I throw the stuffing in the slow cooker...and after hubby wakes up so we can open presents :) . Nearly fell a couple of times walking Lily this morning, though, so will run on the treadmill to avoid the ice.

Okay - Cancel that run with NinjaBunny. As someone mentioned - it is an ice rink out there. I could barely walk on our parking lot and the street was only marginally better. So discretion is better than valour.

Be safe people!!

Merry Christmas everyone! Denis and I just got back from our traditional Christmas run around the neighbourhood (new neighbourhood this year though!) - it was beautiful out! Now - we continue the tour-des-Christmases. #2 and #3 today.
