Where is the Sunshine?

We need to get rid of this ice and a little solar heat would help.

 Little Wonder and Phoebe did chores with me this morning.

 The battery in my camera ran out of gas before I could catch a shot of Phoebe.

I did a few things around the house, got cleaned up and went down to the village.

First I picked up some cookies to deliver to the Town Hall.

Mary and I have gotten to know everyone and really appreciate all they do for the town.

When I arrived, they were enjoying their holiday luncheon and the building smelled so good.

There are some great cooks in that group.

 They each had a stocking hanging at the front desk.  Sweet.

 From there I went over to The Center to play duplicate bridge.

 I had a nice view of the canal, which has been drained and is now frozen.

 My partner, Carol, and I did not think we were doing that well and came in first!

 After that I stopped at Wegmans for a few things that we still need for Christmas Eve.

It was dark by the time I got home.

Gary had a board/holiday dinner meeting and I had leftovers.

The critters and I relaxed in front of the fire and I made myself get up to write this post.

It would have been so easy to fall asleep.

 Night all.
