Merry Christmas and appologies

I'm sorry! I have strips inked and everything, really! But I'm home for the holidays and the only two scanners in the house are connected to computers that are in use most of the time. (And the one that's used to least of those two belongs to a very scary little sister. 0.0; )

But I have the strips inked. Really.

Merry Christmas.

Chapter 6, Page 35 The Christmas Rush

Okay, a little break in the action (such as it is) to introduce the problem that faces all gift givers every Christmas.

Come on. *Tell me* this hasn't happened to you.

Chapter 3, Page 44 Happy Birthday, Jesus

We used to do this. I don't know why we don't any more. Maybe it got to be too much work. Anyway, it's a nice memory, sitting around the table singing 'Happy Birthday' to Jesus.

In case you can't tell, there's a little figure of baby Jesus in the manger on the table.

Chapter 3, Page 43 Waiting for Santa (Sorry for the delay)

Sorry this is late. Hopefully I'll be able to get the rest of this week's backlog up over the weekend.

(One of the downsides to the holidays. Things get crazy!)

Oh, and yes, I really did continue believe in Santa through my preteen years. I think I was thirteen or fourteen before I finally gave up.

Ah well. ^^;

Chapter 3, Page 31 Santa Eats Cheese

Yeah, I really got a letter from Santa. No, I can't remember if it really was postmarked Wisconsin, but it was within the continental United States.

I don't know if the post office still does this, but when I was a kid they'd take the letters to Santa that kids would put in the mail box and send replies. What the exact procedure was (is) I don't know, but it was really sweet.
