I know it's late, but we did it. Christmas has been accomplished. 

Michelle and I spent the day with her family (we were with mine over the weekend). Her brother woke up at a super reasonable time this morning (8 a.m., instead of his usual 11) and, after Christmasing around her folks' for a few hours, we drove to her grandparents' for the rest of the day.

Now that all's been said and done, we're home. Nat King Cole is crooning "The Christmas Song" from my speakers (again--what can I say? It's a classic). The lights around our tree are plugged in. We've doled out the cats' gifts. All that's left to do is this:12 Drummers Drumming, my Christmas 2019 post.
