Receiving Christmas gifts can get expensive. Yes, you read that right. It’s not a misprint. Giving gifts always costs money, but this year getting them wasn’t cheap either.
The last, stressful hurdle of the Christmas season is over. The discussion (arguing?) is over, the job has been completed, and Jenny and I are still speaking.
I’m not really much of an authority on weddings, even though I’ve had three of them. But I thought the one I attended recently in the Faulkner Literary Garden at the Union County Heritage Museum was a good one, as weddings go.
This and that from the past couple of weeks:
Tuesday morning when I woke up, my right wrist was sore. I started to tell my wife that I thought I had sprained my wrist holding the big candy bowl for all the trick or treaters.
Saturday night my wife said she was giving up sports for the season -- watching, that is, not playing. We were sitting in the stadium in Oxford, and after a quick touchdown, Ole Miss had fallen hopelessly behind.
