A day of nothing but bad news

This is the Christmas Tree in the entry of the archive.  It was decorated by the Primary School in the building.

 

Scripture of the day: Doctrine and Covenants 4:2

 

 

We only had 3 hours of camera time today.  Once again the computer is acting up.  Looks like we are sending it to Germany tomorrow.  We told Chris Norton that all we wanted for Christmas was a new computer!

 

On the way home, a woman that always visits with was waiting for the bus too.  I have not seen her for weeks.  Turns out she has stage 4 breast cancer.  She starts chemo on Monday.  She had breast cancer a couple of years ago and now it is back.  So grateful our daughter was pro-active with hers.

 

On a completely sill note -  here are a few Christmas jokes for the kids:

 

Which candle burns longer - a red one or a green one?~

~ Neither.  Candles don't burn longer - they burn shorter!

 

What do snowmen eat for breakfast?

~ Snowflakes!

 

What's the difference between a knight and a reindeer?

~ One slays a dragon and the other is draggin' a sleigh!

 

Why are Christmas trees bad at knitting?

~ Because they always drop their needles!

 

What kind of ball does not bounce?

~ A snowball!

 

When does Christmas come before Thanksgiving?

~ In the dictionary!

 

I remember most of these from elementary school.  I remember thinking they were hysterically funny!
