Things sure have been busy these past few weeks, and now Christmas is upon us. So many activities at this time of year... dance classes and recitals, school concerts, christmas preparations, not to mention all the usual stuff... hockey games and the like. I have closed down my shop for a full two weeks this year. It has been so cold and snowy that we have been limited in the projects that we are able to work on. The guys put on a big push and wrapped up everything that we could. We will now all take a long break to relax and unwind and spend time with friends and family. The shop won't re-open until January 7th.
The girls have been excited for ages and now it's starting to boil over. As I write this we are getting the last preparations together for Christmas with my family. The Pohl family always celebrates Christmas on the 24th, with a big dinner, followed by a gift opening. It will be a little different this year in light of my father's situation. He will most certainly be there with us, but does not live at home any more. One or more of us will have to take him back to his new place when the evening winds down. All the kids take part in a gift exchange, while the adults just exchange gag gifts. Then on Christmas Day, we will do it all over again, this time at our house, with Margarits side of the family.
