     Christmas is approaching thank goodness.  I am all worn out from the hype.  This post is going to contain some random things in my life.  It is not the usual posting.....I am just warning you.  I read in the news the other day that a group singing, "Silent Night" would not sing Christ in the song.  I think that is one of the silliest and shameful doings during this past week.  "Silent Night" is all about the description of Christ's birth.  I think society gets a little absurd at times.
     I noticed that today is the 22nd of Dec.  that means, Tracy Stockton, Joseph Smith, and Cacia Green Rogers have a birthday this week.  I hope they all have a great one.  I will think of them on their special day.
     We had a Christmas party with some of Tim's cousins.  Ashton, a son of Rosco and Michelle who is about 14 loves the piano guys.  I told him that we live near Jon Schmidt and we could go visit him.  I had to take Michelle Schmidt a plate of goodies....after all I am her visiting teacher.  So I made a phone call and Michelle said we could come for a quick visit.  When we got to their house she was having a family party.  Oh my, did I feel stupid...but it was fun to see her brother David and her sister Leeta again.  I dropped off the plate and we had Jon sign a CD.  He was very nice to the company I brought.  Ashton was in heaven.  Craig and Lynette were so excited because Jackie was going to love the CD especially with Jon's autograph.  Before we left, we got to hear a song by Spencer and Annie Schmidt (Jon's children).  I love that the Schmidts are so down to earth.
