Well, I have less then an hour left before Christmas is over, so I better post something.  I am still learning how to do this.  I have a ton of pics and vids just waiting for me to edit and add.  I will say this, Christmas felt more like Easter then then any other holiday this year.

It was warm.  Too warm.  Spring warm.   I didn't feel festive.   We, Hiroko and I, did not exchange wrapped gifts.  My ma, however,  threw together a stunning Christmas-eve dinner.  We ate with one of my brothers.  She gave Toshi a really cool electronic piano.
Overall it was a good day and I should feel more "in the mood."--Hiro-chan and I got to spend time together and we had good food.  I think I am not jovial because my brother's children were missed, the rest of the family is scattered, the sun was too warm, and I have seen too many pics of myself to deny that I have gained weight and seriously need to loose it.
In honor of my attitude, I present this 
LEMON.  If you click it, I promise a funny lemon face.
