Well it is a very windy morning here in our little valley. It is not real cold yet but the wind makes it feel colder.

Some years, families are blessed to initiate festive new Christmas traditions. Other years, the new tradition is a solemn acquiescence to “the new normal.” The Tyrees fall into the latter category this year. That’s because my mother passed away exactly two months before Christmas, having shared her wit and wisdom with the world for 97-and-a-half years. (Nonagenarians and little kids get to count the half.) Although Mom took a perverse pride in finding kindred spirits who didn’t quite “get” m...
