It will be a quiet lead up to Christmas. We have a party on Monday, dinner with friends on Wednesday and then another party next Saturday, the 22nd. It's in New Jersey and it's Anthony's cousins. It should be fun. After that, on the 23rd we will head to Long Island for a few days. The time in between will be spent relaxing and doing as little as possible.
We do have friends in England who are in New York. We haven't heard from them yet so we don't know when we will get together. Since their cell phones don't work here they will rely on e-mail to contact us. I don't know if the hotel where they are staying has a phone. Lots of hotels have reduced their phone systems to just in-house since so many people have cells. Oh, well, we will hear from them when we hear from them.
Time for breakfast and then I have to go to the greenmarket for a few things.
