I got some late Christmas presents today. We also got a whole pileful of Christmas cards. My absolute FAVORITE card from the pile was from my great-grandmother. My great-grandmother seems sort of interesting. She sent me a whole handful of cards that people had written to her. It was kind of funny. Most of the cards were written in Czech and from the Czech republic. I'm trying to learn Czech, but I sadly, I haven't been very devoted to it, lately. She also sent me this really pretty handkerchief (I didn't know that the word "handkerchief" was spelled like that until today), that was from somebody else to her.
She wrote me a neat letter, too....except it was in neat but sloppy cursive. See, I'm not great at reading cursive.
My grandma Hump, as me and my sister nicknamed her when we were quite young, because of the two "warts" on her nose, sent me a box-full of beautiful marbles. I asked her for marbles, for Christmas, and when I did, I didn't think about the price of shipping. She got them off of the internet. It must have been an stinkin' lot of money for just a small box of marbles!
Anyways, I'm off to watch "Dirty Jobs" with my sister and my Dad.
