Per Granny’s request, here is a record of Oliver and Bert’s Christmas gift. Had to split it into two parts.

Merry Christmas
December 25, 2009
Merry Christmas, everyone. We aren’t doing anything too spectacular this year. Christmas tends to sneak up on us here. I fully intended to get decorations up and have a festive December, but it just didn’t happen. Our artificial Christmas tree is still in the box and the box is under our bed serving as a support to keep the bed from sagging. It is stuck there until we find a substitute. I fully intended to get some shopping done and ship presents home, but that didn’t come to fruition either. With Paul working all the time at his “part-time” job and me spending weekends struggling to make a dent in the housework and laundry, shopping just didn’t happen. Christmas eve we did manage to get to a mall and shop for presents for each other, but that is the extent of it.
I got up early this morning because there was lightning. I went to the living room to watch it with the cats. The storm was actually north in Sharjah, so the lightning and a little thunder was all we got here.
Daddybird is still sleeping and we are waiting patiently for him to get up so we can open presents. We got a bubble blowing machine for the cats. I can’t wait to see how much fun that turns out to be. Hopefully, it will entertain Oliver when he gets in one of his yowling moods.
Daddybird: “Merry Christmas!”
Kanga: “Happy Holidays!”
Bert: “mew”
Oliver: “MAH-WOO!”
