Dreaming of a wet Christmas

I peeked out the window early this morn. No snow, just lots of heavy rain. It's been raining here in central Illinois for several days.

I listened for the sound of sleigh bells, but all I hear is the humming of the sump pump in the basement. The good news is that the basement is still dry.

And, tonight is the Jewish Shabbat.

It just doesn't feel like Christmas here this year.

How will you spend this holiday?
