December 18: Seven Swans a Swimming

There are only seven days left until Christmas.  In one week, the season of yule will be drawing to a close.  My kids will have piles of new stuff.  Hopefully useful stuff.  And I will be as tired as...a swimming swan and six geese a laying and five golden rings and four calling birds and three French hens and two turtle doves and a partridge in a pear tree.

I started shopping this evening.  I got three presents.  I have a long way to go.  Lots of stuff left to get.  Miles to go before I sleep.  Miles to go before I sleep.

Saint Marty has miles to go before he...ZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzz.

Trumpet of the swans...
