Yesterday my legs were hurting me a lot so I did not wrap the presents.
But I was happy to find the Scoth tape and I bought Christmas paper when I was at Dixie´s.
I also found a beautiful china bowl that Carolina might want for her house. It is a delicate white bowl hand painted in blue with the sort of figures that have been found in caves ot rocks where primitive men have lived. I´m sure that this belonged once to my father as his brother, my uncle, was an archeologist.
My daughters will not have presents. They should come and take what they want from my house.
Do you still have to go Christmas work?

I don´t have to cook today. Christmas Eve´s dinner is at Claudia´s and I cooked a tongue yesterday. I guess I´ll just make a tongue sandwich for lunch.

@LadyDuck I now have half of the gifts wrapped and came back to watch the news on TV. This fire at Viña del Mar has been as terrible as an earthquake for the people who lived there. They lost it all.

Wrapping gifts is Christmas work for me as I have to do it standing up.

Merry Christmas, I hope your daughters will be happy with taking things that might mean a lot to them.
I no longer buy presents for anyone because they are all old like me so what we do is exchange our time, Carol already got her gift because she wanted to go shopping at Costco and I took her. Now it is my turn to ask for mine but I will not do that until February.

I don´t really need anything now. Maybe I could buy some chocolates to give to myself, later on.

U hope your legs are feeling better tonight. I am doing nothing but watching Christmas movies this year. The cold is so bad I just like to sit in one spot and the cats are sleeping curled together, I will put on my small heater later when I start watching videos and keep a sharp eye out on the cats and hopefully it will warm up the front room some, We are down to 29 tonight,

Claudia did not want any help with dinner. We are going to be just the family and Claudia´s children are old enough to help.
