And what did I do? Why I harvested potatoes! What a beautiful day we had. Hard for me to believe it's the day before Christmas.
I told Lloyd he could open a present on Christmas eve, all the while thinking (but not actually SAYING) that meant nighttime of course. He joyously entered our room at 6:30a.m. declaring, "it's Christmas eve!! I get to open a present!!" So open a present he did. And proceeded to play with it all day (good call us!).
We worked in the garden, harvested the potatoes, planted cucumber, more rosemary, a swan plant (to attrach monarch butterflies; there's already a caterpillar on it!) and a blueberry tree.
Weird.
Because it's Christmas eve!! But I'm happy. Oh so happy.
The biscuits and beer are set out for santa next to the fireplace and all is well with the world.
BECAUSE yes, Lloyd does know the real reason for Christmas, he does! And so do I.
Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night.
