January 2

My last official day off. Requiem Press is up and running (making books at a breakneck pace), but I will take some time off to fish as yesterday proved too rainy. My Vektor Fish & Game Activity Table says that the Major feeding time today for fish is 4:16 PM. So we will be ready. The boys are gathering crickets and earthworms as we speak.

Yesterday was quite enjoyable. As a family, we played a court game. The kids presented a court case from a book and Mrs. Curley & I as the jury had to find the verdict (sort of like a whodunit or a "2-minute mystery"-there is a correct verdict to render based on the evidence.)

After the young ones were in bed we had our annual New Year's Eve/New Year Evening party depending on the year. If we are too tired on New Year's Eve, we have it the following evening on New Years Day. This year was such a case. So Mrs. Curley, myself, and number one son and daughter gathered at the piano for some songs and then danced some polka, waltz, and big band music. We finished the evening (much too late) by watching a video of Alfred Hitchcock's Saboteur. If it seems we have been watching a lot of movies this week-it's true. This always happens during the Christmas season-which is not over yet.

Oremus pro invicem!
