Well, Christmas 2010 has come
and departed, rather quickly I might add! Of course, the 2010 Holiday
Season has not been without it’s unfair share of trials and tribulations
for Joyce and me. In fact, then entirety of 2010 has been, shall I say,
wrought with mettle testing episodes that nearly brought us to our
proverbial knees more than once!
We entered into the Christmas week with me sick, like
I’ve not been in many a year. Oh, and lest we forget the podcast feed
issue that we’ve FINALLY corrected?! That was one to REALLY humble me! I
thought myself a computer whiz, but found out I am a computer
cheese-whiz! (Check out episode 12 of Tales From The Mouse House Podcast
for details). But, Joyce and I awoke on Christmas morn to an excited
puppy (yep, she actually got excited to see her presents under the
tree!), distributed to each other our gifts and had a wonderful day! A
yummy ham dinner, then enjoying our beautiful Christmas Tree sans room
lights topped off a perfect day spent in each other’s company. Alone.
Just the three of us (Kate our puppy). The way we like it!
As we head into the home
stretch of 2010, I reflect upon the hardships not only we faced, but
many of our friends and family faced as well, and I can’t help but pray
to God that 2011 is better. So, from me, Joyce, Kate and Tales From The
Mouse House Podcast, have a Happy, Safe, Blesses and Prosperous New
Year! - Al
