And So This Is Christmas
by John Weckerle
The denizens of New Mexico Central headquarters are, finally, settling into a quiet and comfortable Christmas Eve – so far, at least, and we’re keeping our fingers crossed – with dinner nearly ready and presents wrapped and under the tree. The last of the lighting we’ll do for this year got finished this afternoon. As situations would have it, we’ll likely be the only ones seeing it this year – but we’ll enjoy it, and we’ll see about posting a picture if we don’t doze off too early.
Senior Consumer Affairs Correspondent Wilson has launched a “barker” investigation: What really lies at the bottom of the frozen dairy industry?
The time leading up to the holidays has been a bit of a challenge here; there have been some aggressive viruses, trips to the emergency room and thence to the hospital in general, and an important present that got lost – but, for the most part, all of this has been sorted out.
The most difficult part, though, is that we have a close family member who is unexpectedly fighting for his life. There has been a great degree of pessimism, but I do not share it, and thus far I have been right at every critical turn. Nobody is right all the time, but I’ve called it correctly each time so far and I am not giving up now. Any kind thoughts and prayers would, of course, be appreciated.
All that having been said, we wish all our readers who observe the holiday a happy, joyous, and loving Christmas!
One Response “And So This Is Christmas”
“Barker” Investigation indeed. Very good, and I’m sure Wilson completed his assignment with elan, not to mention plenty of chops licking.
And, I do pray that your relative will see a complete recovery.
Do have a great celebration.
