Hung by the chimney with care

    We successfully delivered Dad to Margaret's daughter Bunny's house and back with no major mishaps. One stumble, but he was caught before he could fall. And he looked very nice. But he did not look a lot like a man who was going to be dancing out of the facility any time soon. However, the dialysis folks think that they've figured out why his blood pressure has been too low (he was drinking too much water) so hopefully he will rally again in the new year.
    Meanwhile, nephew James' new bride Christina celebrated her first Christmas in the US. She's from Mexico and had previously gone home to celebrate. And they announced her pregnancy. We did our best to look astonished, having been forewarned by proud future Grandma Anne. It was nice that Christina got to have her first US Christmas in warm family surroundings. The fact that there were a lot of ladies there who could give her tips on getting over morning sickness was probably also a plus.
    So a good time was had by all, and we got Daddy back to Rice Home in time for supper. Yay!
