Oh, Hello

Hi, Blog.

Oh, hello. And how are you?

Uh, good. How 'bout you?

Good. Just enjoying some more of these lovely fall leaves. Gorgeous colours [Blog likes to pretend it's British] this time of year, eh. Just brilliant.

Oh, um, yes. About those fall leaves, Blog. It's actually, um, it's actually a bit past fall now.

What do you mean a bit past fall. I thought you were out doing this

Well, we did do that, just not recently.

Do you mean while I've been holding up this birthday cake picture all the leaves have changed and fallen?

Well, yes. They have fallen. A while ago.

A while ago?!

Yes, sorry.

You mean it's almost winter?

It kind of IS winter. Now it looks less like this

and more like this

Dash it all! [again with the British thing, oy] So, how soon till Christmas?

Well, uh, I guess about 11 months now.

WHAT?!

Yes, we had Christmas, and Will's birthday.

I missed Will's birthday?

Again, sorry, and actually Matthew's too. Although I guess it was only a week or so ago so I can probably still get away with telling you about it, since I haven't been that prompt all along anyway.

I should say.

There was also a little vacation to California. And a visit from the best of friends (more about them tomorrow).

Sheesh.

And a trip to my Happy Land.

But I don't care how long ago that was, I'll still tell you about it, because it was brilliant.

I should hope so. I've never been to Happy Land.

I am sorry, Blog. I didn't mean to be gone so long. Things have just come up.

What things.

You know, little boys, California, Happy Land, church stuff, dishes. And then there's the laundry. Crimeny, the laundry.

Well . . .

I do apologize. Really. And I'll do my best not to be gone for so long again. Plus, I've got great stuff for you this week. You'll like it, I promise.

Hmmmm. Okay.

Okay?

Okay.

Okay. Good then. I'll see you soon?

Yes.

Okay.

Good night.

Good night. Here, I'll leave you with a little Christmas picture. It can't help but make you feel better. Put on a happy face, good night.
