The Monday Before Christmas

Another take on Bill, John, Dima, Glenn and Don

• Glenn's wife, Lolly, wrote this comment on an older blog post. I am reprinting it here so no one misses it: " I just want to thank everyone for the love and support and prayers you have given Glenn and our family. You are all very special people to Glenn. Just knowing you were there for Glenn was enough. It has been a long, hard road for him, but I know that 2009 will be his year!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I can't thank you enough for loving Glenn just like I do. Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas,You guys rock!!!!!! Love to everyone, Lolly"


• Dima reported that when Timmy Kramer came to Sam's this morning, he seemed very confused. Tim has been recovering from a stroke. Dima called Tim's wife, and he was transported by ambulance to the hospital. Please keep him and his family in your prayers this Christmas.


• Laura came in with a dental appointment on her agenda. Bill W. asked if her appointment was at "tooth-hurty" ( 2:30). This joke went over everyone's head as Laura said her appointment was at 3:30. Hope it all went well.
• Katelyn arrived home for the holidays, yeah! I wonder if I will force her to watch the corny holiday movies with me shown on the Lifetime or Hallmark channels. I know they all have happy endings and are very predictable, but they are the perfect backdrop to all of the holiday preparations. I would need a support group to end my addiction, except I think they stop showing them come the new year. (My family will be grateful).
