Blue Christmas
This year we had a very blue Christmas. Water’s blue, right? We had a lot of that. It wasn’t the nice, soothing warm water of late autumn that we’ve had around here lately, but the hard, I-want-to-be-snow (or-at-least-sleet) water come spring. A gray, drizzly day is not the best way to greet the most familial day of the year, whether your family is connected by genetics or friendship.
Fortunately, I have nephews, and it’s great to be jumped on by a pair of excitable boys who want to drag you into their world of Christmas-time greed first thing in the morning (but not, thanks to efforts of their parents, at 6 am). So it rained, and rained, and rained some more, and I hoped that all that rain wouldn’t turn to ice in the evening, but it felt like Christmas and for that it could be as blue as it wanted outside.
