Christmas Miracle Update

I'm very happy to report that we had not one but two Christmas miracles at The Compound.  First of all, the missing Ginsu scissors have been found.  In one last ditch effort, Dad and I moved the couch and looked underneath and around it to no avail. Then he tilted back his recliner for the third time as I crawled on the floor and looked up inside of it.  Low and behold, the Ginsu scissors were inside.  They apparently fell from Dad's lap down the side of the chair and were stuck inside.  Hallelujah.

The second Christmas miracle happened later yesterday evening when I drove Mom up to her sister-in-law's house to drop off her Christmas present.  I backed the BMW out of the garage and as Mom got in the car, she noticed the second miracle had taken place: the passenger door handle was working again.  For the past few months, whenever you opened the passenger door, you had to manually press the door handle back down, or else the door wouldn't close.  Once again, low and behold the door handle works again.  Yep, Christmas is the time for miracles.
