quiet Christmas

I decided to stay home for Christmas this year, for a variety of reasons. It's been a nice, quiet weekend; just what I needed. It's so nice not to be on the road today.

I took a walk around the neighborhood last night, looking at the lights. I walked down to the park and the woods today, where I saw the above owl. Now I'm baking cookies and watching "A Christmas Story" on the telly. Since the holiday is on a Sunday, I also have tomorrow off. No snow, but that's OK.

Of course, the best part is tonight: the Doctor Who Christmas special!

I hope all of you had a lovely holiday weekend, whether you celebrate Christmas or not. :)
