The Blog That Almost Wasn’t

At 3:07 pm on Monday Daveen called me.

“Are you writing your blog for tomorrow?” she asked.

Oops.

My assistant Zatesia, who posts my blogs, is on vacation this week, so no one until Daveen even asked.  And over the years I’ve found that during the weeks of Christmas and New Years Day we complete much less business in my office than during the other 50 weeks of the year.

‘No, I forgot,” I said to Daveen, just as I was planning to leave my office for a Christmas cookie decoration party at our stepson Randy’s house.

Normally a blog takes me almost an hour to write, and about half that to edit after my “real” editor, Nancy, takes a look.

But today because I really do have a date with some cookies, this blog is going to be shorter than most.

In fact, here it is:

Merry Christmas!!!
