A little less Magic!

Keeping the "steam" in the spirit of this Christmas, has been a little difficult! The girl's opened their presents, I prepared pancakes and potato pancakes (frozen,but yummy enough!), we then watched "Invasion of Christmas lights" and are in the middle of TL C's great baker marathon. We just heard that there may be a storm passing through this afternoon and evening, actually could see 1' of snow here in Alabama! The girls and I are contemplating some time in the hot tub, it entails going outside to get to the UNHEATED pool room! Trying to decide if it is worth it! Maybe just to get out of the room! Shawn is really struggling with the whole day, made only worse by not having cigarettes for the past couple of days and most likely none for another few days or more! If any of you are expecting to hear from him, do not be surprised if you don't. I have just come to realize that he has shut his ringer off on his phone! And with his "nicking" you may not want to talk to him any ways! He has resorted to staying in bed with a pillow over his head! It might be worth hitting the hot tub so he can have a little quiet time! It has been a bit of a struggle to believe that it is truly Christmas, doing the best that we can! Couldn't find out where they were having a community meal today, so we are hanging tight here at the hotel. Probably for the best with how Shawn is doing! Would have been nice to be apart of something, or at the very least maybe kept us focused!
