I got an unexpected Christmas gift last night.

I had accompanied two men singing "O, Holy Night" at the Christmas Eve services, with an elderly, retired pastor playing violin. Afterward, the pastor, who has a few extra tickets, invited me and a friend to a Symphony concert early next year. Wow!

So cooooool!! Speaking of concert, I saw an ad for a Japanese conductor, (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Masaaki_Suzuki), who's conducting cantatas by Bach next year. He's a Christian and teaches in Yale, and apparently loves Bach. The concert is free, but we have to get online tickets. It's still more than a month away but registration's already closed. T_T I was too late. BUT, they will open his rehearsal day for the public. I got a ticket for that! So I'm just gonna settle for rehearsal day. But I guess that's good enough. I will learn a lot from this experience. I'm psyched.

Just had a nice visit with eldest daughter who came up from L.A. I gave her her presents and will do presents with my younger daughters tomorrow. Just kicking back and a little stuffed from dinner: cream of asparagus soup, whole wheat herb rolls, green bean casserole, rosemary lamb, and lemon meringue pie.

Exhausted from cooking and the visit. I think a nap on the couch is in order! I could go upstairs to bed, but I wanna dose off looking at the Christmas tree lights. :D

I finally saw Star Wars and it was amazing. There were a few things that I didn't like though...but I don't wanna spoil it for anyone. Maybe I'll make a thread about it soon so we can talk.
I hope everyone had a great day today. Happy to have a Savior!
Happy birthday Jesus Christ!

I'm almost dead tired. Finally all the Christmas parties are over. If it weren't for the presents, I would have completely hated December. But I got a lot of gifts this year! I should make more friends. Oh but I get New Year's day all to myself. Finally some chill time. Literally just laying in bed staring at the wall right now. I'm enjoying this.

Oh and there's an app called LibriVox where you can download and listen to great audiobooks for free. You can volunteer to be a narrator as well. They have lots of books, good for self studying or just feeding the brain. I'm tempted to listen to Lincoln's autobiography, but I might just fall asleep right now. Hmmm, maybe tomorrow.

I spent most of Christmas with my stepmom's side of the family. It was a really nice gathering. :) They've really started to accept us, and I'm super relieved.

World Cat is cool too. Its where you can go to your library and check out any library book from any library in the country. Even college libraries. They will ask if you are willing to rent the book for a certain amount just say no. My librarian told me he has never seen anyone have to rent a book before.

As long as you've lived there you should know that the term "desert" refers to annual precipitation, not temperatures. Huge percentages of Colorado are considered desert (including Co Springs) yet we get temperatures well below freezing. Right now it is 13f with a wind chill of -13f.
