24th December 2022
It’s Christmas Eve and all is well. It snowed all day, but we didn’t care, we weren’t going anywhere.
Work continued on the bureau. I put sealer on the newly exposed maple, and Kelli put the first coat of paint on the carcass.

I did my usual thing of wrapping presents last minute, and placed them under the tree.
Not much traffic went past, not even the postman dared to be out.
