Quiet after Christmas

We had Christmas on Saturday and Sunday, so yesterday was a nice quiet day. It's the first time we haven't all been together on Christmas though, that was hard to adjust to. Everyone had to work Monday and Wednesday, and Dakota came over on Saturday for her Christmas, so we decided to have ours over the weekend too. Heather stayed here, that made it easier for me. I enjoyed reading the Christmas verses in the New Testament with her.

My family can be happy to know that I didn't let any skeletons out of the closet during my interview with channel 8! They primarily wanted to know about Prescott in the 1970's, and some of the important issues of the day. It was fun, we were there nearly 2 hours. Heather got to be in the control room to watch, and the interviewer sat off screen. Who knows what it will look like, but hopefully I'll get a little time on the program when they are through editing and cutting. We went shopping afterwards, at the Arizona Mills center. Heather found an Ann Taylor store there, and I found Burlington coat factory. Unfortunately I didn't just pick up a coat there, I caught a pretty bad cold too. We were standing in line with 900 other people, and I kept thinking that wasn't a good idea, my stamina is still pretty lousy. Today I slept most of the day, and I'm feeling better today. We won't make it to Maricopa this weekend though, and I'm sad about that. Most of the family is going to Mom's to help build an addition on her place, and I was looking forward to seeing everyone and helping out a little. But, hopefully she can get a lot done, and we'll go down another weekend to help with the interior.
