Wolcum Jole!

We had our Christmas concert and it turned out a bit better than I had thought. I always like the music by the time of the concert, and feel sad to see it go. But, on with Lessons and Carols, Christmas Eve, and then the trip to NYC in January!

After the concert, jeffj cooked up some yummy shrimp and grits and bread pudding. He sure can cook. I don't feel very competent in the kitchen with him around. Oh well, I will just let him cook. His party was splendid, Jane and Billy came, and so did Joe and Kim, along with the usual suspects. It was fun.

Sunday, we went to Sewanee on the bus to attend the Lessons and Carols there. The music was okay, but the atmosphere is so cool, incense, candles, processions, holly. What more could I want?

Monday, my mood was changed by a meeting called by my boss wherein he broke some bad news about the coming new contract. It looks like my coverage has been sacrificed for emergency cost savings measures. So I have been scrambling to prepare my resume, and my sweet daughter has already called her company's HR department to see if they have something for me. In addition, I oticed a good dozen openings locally for such as me. Besides, my company may have something for me, and I would prefer to stay with them. But I have to look out for my own interests.

So I thought I would come and mention what I have been doing, just to keep this blog from too long a period of inaction. I will talk more in upcoming days.
