[Nfbmt] christmas

[Rebecca Stewart]

Hi Rick.   If you would like to read my new book, I can send you a card for
a free download and then Jaws will read it to you.  It's short and sweet,
less than 200 pages.  Just let me know if you're interested.  It's my memoir
and it's not just another story about how blindness has affected my life,
I'm sure you know all about that already.

Greetings on Christmas Eve.

Karen and I wish you all a very Merry Christmas, too. Snugged in in Bozeman.

The moose up in Kelly Canyon. The downy woodpeckers outside my office
window.

And of course Lydia the Feline Queen of our house, who jumps on my scanner
every time I start up my Kurzweil K-1000. She thinks I only want to read
books about cats. They all wish you happy new year. At least that is my
interpretation and anthromorphisized version of their most recently heard
utterances.

The music is all sweet.
And the candy a treat.
Now settle in, be neat.
And for gosh sakes, watch your feet.
Don't step on me!! I am here by the fire. What, are you blind or something?

Cats. Gee whiz. So subtle aren't they?
How did she actually seize control of my keyboard like that anyhow!
