    I wondered for a moment where Krampus was, but realized he must be the one taking the photo of St. Nicholas!

    The frost seems a little thicker this morning; this makes the third night the wind machines have been running in the orchards on the other side of the river.

    puddle--now that you mention it, my experience has also been that the surgeons seem significantly more friendly and personally interested than the gastroenterologists...

    Rain --> pour. . . . Stacy at Digestive Health called my kid to try to set up an appointment. I called: line busy. Left voicemail saying I'd stay off line for half an hour. No call. Doesn't leave one with a good feeling. . . .

    Those are the people you'd just as soon skip past to the surgeon, correct? Well, with a little luck, they'll forget to call back until after Tuesday morning. ;-)

    Alan, you won't find me posting a photo of Krampus! Ewww! Such a terrible tradition to inflict on children! No, I'll stick with Good St. Nick. :-)

    So, do the wind machines disturb your slumber? I hope you didn't dream it was Krampus out there!

    I'm calling Millie, Dr. Jones assistant on Thursday. Maybe she'll have advice. I don't want to get into an internecine war 'cause I skipped a few (expensive)(and time consuming) steps, lol!

    I hear you. Still... At this point it seems you should have the right to move forward!

    Oh, if we wake up we can hear the wind machines--kind of like loud traffic or surf or a heavy train. No big.

    Here's a link to the text of Obama's speech:

    Obama certainly is a good speechifier, no question there. And this sounds like the theme of a re-election campaign, sure enough.

    Off to the Bay Area early in the AM for court in Oakland and some shopping. Later, gators!
