Merry Christmas, Janice

Thank you for returning Nimrod. What did you do to him? Elrod is still having to take care of both places. Nimrod sits on the "throne" you bought him in Italy. He barks orders like we are his servants.
Elrod has even called the Most Right Reverend to conduct an exorcism. I just think you spoiled him rotten.

The llamas miss him terribly. Nimrod won't even go outside anymore. Please, come here and take care of this mess, please. I promise you won't have to stay with any farm animals. We do have running water and indoor bathrooms, now.

Your very tired friend,
Beatrice

Janice,

Please bring back Nimrod. Elrod and I are having trouble giving his llamas their daily medications.

Beatrice

Janice,

I am unable to ride to the airport with Nimrod, so I made the sign for him to hold up while he waits for you at the baggage claim. I hope you enjoyed it. I had to use the last of my lipstick.

I look forward to your visit. Elrod has made a new chicken coop, so we won't have any wondering chickens if the wind kicks up while you are here.

Excited to see you, again.
Beatrice

Janice,

I am so excited about your visit. Nimrod has practiced the drive to the Springdale airport twice now. The last time it only took ten hours. I plan on being with him when we pick you up next week so it should only take half that time to get back to the house.

I've got the guest bedroom ready for you. I'm not sure how much space you'll need for your luggage so I cleaned out half of the attic as well. That's the floored side.

Elrod wanted to come with us to the airport, but someone has to stay here with all our little critters. A few still have weather issues. A gust of wind and still some of the hens head for the house. You will have to remember to keep the front and back doors of the house closed at all times.

Well, I'll sign off now. It looks like a storm is blowing up. Can't wait to see you.

Hugs,
Beatrice

Dear Janice,

Oh my dearest friend, I send my condolences, once again.

With a saddened heart,
Beatrice
