Pre-Holiday Season 2024: Cigars, Music, Movies

Saturday, December 7, 2024

Lunch with Noel at W.A. Frost today. They had their Christmas tree up. 

                     

When I got home from lunch I hightailed it to the garage for a cigar. 

                     

It was quite pleasant outside. According to Dale the temperature actually made it to 48 degrees. 

Listened to Sia while outside.  

Once back inside I made a vodka martini garnished with olives and pearl onions.  

Listened to Frank Sinatra.

Dale and I watched the last part of It Happened on 5th Avenue on TCM.  At some point it'd be fun to see the whole thing. It's been a few years. 

After It Happened On 5th Avenue was over Holiday Affair came on. We watched it last week with Warren but we watched it again. I like it better each time I see it. 

Christmas Season 2023/2024 - Christmas Eve

Sunday, December 24, 2023

After the Christmas Eve service Dale and I came home and each had a little snack. I had a little Irish cream.

I reminded Dale that our first Christmas together was 30 years ago. 1993.

We needed to wind down just a bit before going to bed so we listened to Frank Sinatra.

We were in bed before midnight. 

Santa won't come if you're awake. 

Sleep well one and all wherever you are. Tomorrow is Christmas beneath every star.
