Weird holiday season in General musings

Doesn’t feel much like the holidays. Of course the fact that I have to have an outpatient “procedure” on Wednesday doesn’t help, but it does get me out of some “family things” I’d rather not do. Just baked some of the cookies today - more tomorrow I guess. Gifts are all set and boxed up, but not wrapped yet. Changed my profile picture to Larry when he was a small sickly kitten - he is about 16 lbs now at 15 months old.
