Hello fellow FA Artists, Writers, Photographers, Fursuiters, Crafters and other highly creative people in FA Land.
The packages have all gone out and have arrived at their locations, the gifts have all been wrapped and given to their appointed persons. On Christmas Eve, my friend Schirm invited my friend Noah and I out for Pizza and we drove up to La Canada to enjoy our dinner at the Round Table restaurant. Afterwards, on a whim, we ended up driving to Christmas Tree Lane, in nearby Altadena. The attraction has been pretty in pretty much the same location from around 1920 and is something of a local treasure. This year it was still as spectacular, where for almost the length of a mile, the community up in the foothills have decorated their houses and the Deodar Cedar trees lining Santa Rosa Avenue with hundreds of thousands, maybe a million or more electric lights. The displays also included cheerful winter scenes featuring many cartoon characters, Deer, Penguins, Snowmen and even a Grinch or two. Most delightful of all was seeing a "Family" of illuminated snow-people made of spherical Chinese Paper lanterns, and an homage to this year's hit movie "Barbie" done up in various shade of pink lights. We returned to the house, all feeling the carb crash creeping up on us, and after checking my emails, I retired to my bed, and I don't even remember hitting the pillow.
Christmas day, I originally wanted to cook a Christmas feast, but we were "Blessed" with so many leftovers that I just reheated my slices of pizza and that set me up for my whole day's calorie intake. Much to my surprise, I spent more than eight hours on Christmas Day just answering emails and comments on Facebook. I even fell asleep before the keyboard and monitor several times. I was even chatting with my friend in New York City, and I fell sound asleep for at least a four-hour nap. The day sure brought me tidings of comfort and joy, that's for certain.
Now is the time to work on the thank you notes and prepare for the coming of the Ney Year and the Epiphany on the following January 6th. Pasadena is already preparing for the Annual Rose Parade, and the following Alabama Vs. Michigan football game. Yes... The cycle begins anew. I might be a bit late in wishing you all a "Merry Christmas," but I can still wish you folks a happy, healthful and safer New Year. Most of all, may we be blessed with peace very soon in the Near Future.

May you have an equally good 2024!
Sounds like you had a decently good Christmas. By coincidence, I also had reheated pizza on Christmas. xD It was super good and I wish I could eat it all the time, haha.

Stay safe and we'll see you the other side. :)
Lady Mouse and I had a quiet Yule and Christmas... this was our first Yule together in the same home in many years. It was so nice to have the her within arms reach for a change.
good to hear you had a great time. :) it's what we all need in these times, some experiences to look back to.
