Deja Vu Holiday


MERRY CHRISTMAS, RUSSIAN STYLE!

Dah, to honor her father's Russian Orthodox heritage, Fiorella leaves Christmas decorations up through the seventh of January.  Well, actually, she leaves them up a lot longer than that because she figures it took her a full month to put them all up, and she deserves to have a full month in which to take them down.

Enjoy!

Good News All the Way Around

It's been a semana buena en la casa de Fiorella. Su hijo menor has a job, a real live job, and his art is being showcased by un amigo of his. And the knee replacement surgery de su hijo mayor went very well--he's undergoing physical therapy as we speak. Meanwhile Fiorella is talking to a real live New York agent about Princess of Bosque Bend.

The nexus was the birthday del padre de la Fiorella en Lunes, and having Nephew Aaron's cumpleanos en Martes augmented it.

Gracias al buen Dios, muchas gracias. Merci, grazie, danke shoen, spaseeba, shyeh shyeh.

Okay, Fio took a flyer on this one so any corrections to her linguistic prowess are welcomed.

Celebrate!

S Rozhdyestvom Khristovym yescho raz!
Merry Christmas again!

Fio thinks the calendar has been changed for the Russian Orthodox in the past decade or two, but she still glories in her paternal heritage and celebrates a second Christmas on January 7.

Which gives her another excuse for not taking down her holiday decorations.
