Oh yes, things are going quite well. Nothing has broken, flown apart or caught fire in days.
I hope you can say the same. =-)
As for Christmas, I'm as ready as I'll ever be(oh dear G_d where have the months gone!?).
As much as I enjoy the Holidays, I enjoy seeing the end of it as well.
I only have so much good cheer to go around and by New Years, I'm empty. Give me til next Christmas and I able to enjoy spending time with family and friends once more.
Merry Christmas to you and yours, GrandEagle.
