SATURDAY 9: HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
1.
As you can see, when Sam Winters was a little girl, she loved giving
her annual wish list to Santa. If you could ask Santa for anything at
all, right now, what would it be? A coupon for free handyman service, and then the time to get the work scheduled and done. There are so many things I'd like to have done around here!
2. Are you currently on the Naughty or Nice list? How did you get there?

3. Are you traveling this Christmas? If so, are you going by car, plane or train? I'm flying 1550 miles to Key West. I'm very excited that I got nonstop flights to and fro! I hate flying, and not having to change planes is a blessing.
4. Did you buy yourself a gift this year? Yes. I ordered two sweaters from ThredUp. I like buying from there because it's good value and good for the environment.
5. What's your favorite holiday-themed movie or TV special? Have you seen it yet this year? It's Mr. Magoo's Christmas Carol. I found it on Peacock and watched it over and over as I wrote my holiday cards. (I do dearly love having a gazillion channels.)
6. Which do you prefer: candy canes or gingerbread? Gingerbread.
7. Close your eyes and tell us the first carol that comes to mind. "Silent Night." I miss Christmas Eve service at my own church, where we close with "Silent Night" by candlelight.
8. What's your favorite winter beverage? Bigelow Salted Caramel Tea. My aunt sends it to me every year for my November birthday and it carries me through the cold weather months.
9. What do you remember most about the 2020 holiday season? I was recovering from covid last year and celebrated with my nephew, my niece, and her husband over Zoom. Thank God for the vaccine and the booster! Hopefully with Pfizer, masks and hand sanitizer, that nightmare is behind me for good.
Merry Christmas! I hope your trip goes well. We are flying to San Antonio, and a big snow storm is forecast for the day we leave. The good thing is that if we can just get to San Antonio, it will be sunny and in the 80s! I do not enjoy flying either but we have to change planes once both coming and going. No non-stops from SLC to San Antonio. This trip is causing me so much anxiety, I don't know that I will ever plan another mid-winter trip, but my husband is really excited about it. The things we do for the people we love! Amen to your thoughts about Covid! I am so grateful for the vaccine and booster and also the new Covid treatment drug that was just approved yesterday. The only reason I am willing to travel at all is the vaccine and booster. I am not really worried about Covid as we travel, but of course, we will take lots of precautions. Merry Christmas to you. Have a great trip to Florida! See you again soon!
