Where Are the McCann's?

I have been AWAL recently. What have I been? What have I been doing? I wonder that myself sometimes. In early November we went to Egypt. Then a few days after getting back, I has a friend visit. Yep, that's right. A friend flew all the way to Ghana to see little old me. Now I am trying to get into the swing of Christmas. So I have not gone native, I have not got lost in the bush. I have just gotten sucked under by life.
