Just hanging out, mostly. School's out for three weeks. So I've been relaxing. We have several parties this week to go to, and we're having a little neighbors-and-friends cocktail gathering this evening at our house, which is why I'm hiding in my office at the moment and surfing the Web. My house helpers are here cleaning the house in advance of that. We'll have a big family-gathering Christmas Eve at my aunt's house near Fort Worth and then a smaller one at our house Christmas Day with just my parents, in-laws and my little sister and her husband. I was really dreading it because of this being the first Christmas without my sister, but it really seems to be less depressing than I anticipated. After Christmas, we're probably going to go someplace for a few days, but we're still discussing our options. My husband wants to ski, and I want to go someplace warm and tropical. . . .
