The Universe Has Smitten Thevictorian Family Christmas

I should be grateful. Everybody is healthy. Enough! I can still hobble. Still prepare (with The Pony's help) our Christmas feast. I was able to access the home of my sister the ex-mayor's wife for her Christmas Eve party. However... I did not win a single game!

The Universe decreed that Genius could spend more than 4 hours with us on Christmas day, because Friend's family was sick. That's terrible for Friend's family, with whom they usually spend Christmas afternoon and evening. However...

We could hardly wait until everybody was done eating our Christmas Dinner so we could partake of our annual Christmas scratching. I always buy lottery tickets as our gifts. Dang it! I might as well have doled out the cash this year. Because we had very few winners. Not even my usual 40% back.

Hopefully, our casino trip on the day after Christmas will set things right. Hear me, 
Even Steven???

    1. If only! The casino was not kind to Val! I hope you had a nice Christmas. I did, despite losing. Family is more important than money.

  2. I hope Even Steven heard you. He hasn't been hearing me at all.

    1. Yes, it was great! No rush to eat. We spent the afternoon playing games. And we had longer at the casino the next day.
