Hey, good morning.

 

Hey, you here to work off your Christmas dinner?

 

Right after I work off my breakfast.

 

You want to join me?

 

Why not?

 

So, how were your holidays? You did have one, didn’t you?

 

I was not a grinch this year. I actually spent the day with Chelsea and Conner.

 

Sounds nice.

 

Yes, it was. It was very nice. I had almost forgotten what it was like. A real family Christmas.

 

Is that what you guys are a real family?

 

I think so. Yeah, I guess we are.

 

It has just been a long time since I’ve heard you talk this positively.

 

I look... I mean... I am just embraced in the notion that, you know, you live this life and you do

things and even the awful things, you can put it behind you.
