Maybe it will be third time lucky. Man, Yahoo 360 is sure being wonky today. This is my third attempt at posting this entry. Stupidly I didn't copy the text before posting the last entry and it along with my first attempt was swallowed up by the big, bad Yahoo 360 machine. Maybe third time lucky but this time I'll copy the text before I hit the post button. It's a good thing I'm all mellowed out by the Christmas music and snacks we had earlier. This has been a relatively relaxed, quiet Christmas day for us. We are having roast beef and scalloped potatoes for dinner. Tomorrow we get together with my brothers and sisters for a big turkey dinner then on Saturday we do it all again with my wife's family. The boys are downstairs playing with their new Wii game, my wife is sitting at the kitchen table factoring equations for fun and I'm typing this for the third time.

Last night I went over to the church late in the evening to drop off some alter linen's we had forgotten earlier when we went over for the Candlelight service at 7. It was a very nice and well designed service with lots of Christmas carols to sing. My sister brought her grandson with her and he was quite excited by all the lights. We got there early enough that we didn't end up sitting in the very back overflow area which is horrendous. A few years ago we got to the service late and ended up sitting there and it almost made me want to give up on the Christmas Eve service. Nothing like. that happened last night, our organist even brought her harp and played it for a few of the songs.


When I went to drop off the linens I took my camera because I had seen a house with a particularly nice light display earlier in the night. I also saw another tree that was nice so I took a picture of it too. I've used those two pictures to illustrate this entry. I just posted this entry, came back to edit it and fix the spelling and it was blank. What a rollercoaster ride Yahoo 360 has me on today.

I got my hopes up when I heard that iTunes Canada had finally had some TV shows. Unfortunately all we get are some homegrown shows and a few shows from Comedy Network. They still haven't figured out a licensing scheme for the U.S. shows that dominate our programming.
