I started out the month winning big at some mystery
events. First was getting a trivia
question right at the Sisters in Crime/Mystery Writers of American holiday
lunch. I got lucky because the question
they asked me was fairly easy. Almost
tripped me up until they repeated it.
But some of the questions they asked I had no clue about. Then, a few nights later, I went to a mystery
trivia night at the Culver City library.
The woman who is always on the winning team wasn’t there, and my team
won. It was a team effort, too. I didn’t know many of the answers, but
fortunately, my teammates did.
Unfortunately, I did spend some of the month sick. The cough I had over Thanksgiving just would
not go away. I even ran a fever a couple
of days, taking one sick day along the way.
But I finally got over it just in time for Christmas.
And yes, I went home for Christmas. I actually took the two days after Christmas
off, so I had a good long visit. I was
able to leave early enough on Christmas Eve to make the Christmas Eve
service. Christmas Day morning was spent
at my brother’s new house (it’s still nice), then we went to Mom and Dad’s for
the rest of the day. We walked at Spring
Lake a couple of times and played some games.
It was a very nice visit.
New Year’s Eve was a quiet evening/day. I worked, although I got off early. Went home, went for a run, caught a movie,
and was home to ring in the new decade.
And that covers the highlights and lowlights of December.
