• Nice morning: warm, calm, cloudy, temp: 71, high: 77. Scattered showers forecast.
• at the men's breakfast, several guys ask about Jim & Diane. And on the way home scattered showers started with a light sprinkle.
• Worked on my "To Do" list: decorating Christmas tree, collecting trash & putting it out, taking cardboard boxes to the Hall, setting up Meds, updating blog, daily sudoku, cleaning 3 Surface tablets, bills, etc.
• Had a delicious lunch of leftovers including great guacamole.
• Ordered my first drone, with a camera. It's a SYMA model X5C. A Facebook user said it's the most fun he had in all of 2014. Should be here in the first half of January.

• Gloomy day, cloudy, light breeze, cool, temp: 68. But got my 2 3/4 miles bike ride in.
• A drizzly wet evening held attendance down at the pot luck dinner - about 15 people - food was great, though.
• Today I hit the jackpot. My daughter, Kathy, sent me a Christmas tree (see picture below), a University of Minnesota polo shirt, & sun screen lotion (for our trips to SPI). Thank you, Kath.

• Haven't got the baubles put on the tree yet because I need to go buy some hangers. Kath - here's the picture you asked for.
• And early tomorrow, I'll be sending 4 J&D mail envelopes to Kristina Meyers, 339 Tanglewood Lane, Blue Earth, MN 56013.
