White Christmas

We had a family gathering on New Year’s Eve Day. (Is Eve Day really a thing? I used to date a girl named Eve Day.) As part of our festivities we had a white elephant gift exchange. We were in the middle of the exchange, having a grand time, when we learned of Betty White’s passing. The party continued, but a damper lingered – not a dark cloud, but a damper nonetheless. A white cloud, perhaps. Afterward, we decided not to sing as we often had in the past.

In honor of Betty, we’ve decided that our future White Elephant Exchange will be renamed The Betty White Elephant Gift Exchange. Mark it down.
