Merry Christmas Dad

Good morning.
We went to that party in Brampton last night. It was really just getting started when we had to leave. Man, I hate it when that happens. But we had a good time for the short time we were there and we helped out Toys For Tots by going. Admission was $5 or a new unwrapped toy, we took toys, had I of thought about it, it would have been cheaper to pay the $5, however I enjoyed buying toys, as I have no one to buy toys for at this point. Little R isn't so little any more. It turned out that Hubby knew one of the doormen from work. We saw a few familiar faces and met a couple of new ones. The turn out wasn't as many as expected, but people were still showing up as we were leaving.
When we got home we found it had snowed a bit, my car was covered in white.
I got some pretty bad news not long before we headed down to the party. And that is, that my niece doesn't have very long. At first it was, yes she's terminal, then it was, wait, it may be something else, there is hope, and now it's, if you want to attend your daughters wedding, being planned for August, you better move the date up, so now the wedding will be the end of December. This is very hard. I don't know if moving the wedding that far ahead is significant or not. I have been unable to call her because I know I will just fall apart. I don't feel right at all about calling a dying person just to bawl in their ear. On the other hand I can't imagine not seeing her or talking to her before she's gone. Then again, I'm sure she wants to spend her time with her husband and kids, I would feel a little intrusive. I'm very confused.
On our way through town last night we stopped in to see if we could get a Christmas gift which was on sale and it was the last day of the sale. Of course they were sold out but we did get a rain check, which guarantees we can still get it at the sale price whenever they do get more in.
Today my father is coming up for dinner and I am excited about that. I just don't see enough of him these days. It'll be nice to have just him here for a quiet dinner together. Besides we got him a really nice Christmas present for a change and I may just make him open it while he's here. We have a few other little things he can take home and open on Christmas. I never get to see him open his Christmas presents and I want to know if he actually likes this one or not.
I did take a couple of pictures last night, well, more accurately, Hubby took them, but I can't post them because I look like such a dweeb in them. As is part of the PMS parcel, I have this gigantic zit in the middle of my face which stands out like a third eye. I also have this really stupid look on my face in most of them. And for whatever reason there is a lot of red eye going on in these photos. Ugh.
Well, until next time...have a great day!
