We've got a little bit of snow here as well but to be honest I'd rather be rid of it on all other days than the 24th.
Funny thing you should mention mothers-in-law, JRT. Perhaps the similarity is that they are another item to be wished away? /said with an blink in the eye and a wink of the brow.
I've heard of one particular M-i-L, a rather grand lady, as in robust, or carrying a lot of presence around who was becoming quite exasperated when the kids on the beach pushed her out to sea again every time she tried to swim ashore. You see, they thought she was a whale!
Looking forward to reading the traditional HWH Christmas story - again - and wishing everyone - including Mothers-in-Law - happy holidays before you run for the woods.
