It’s
almost Christmas time!!
Ho Ho Ho... Yep only a bit
more than a week until Christmas! Are you ready, have you finished all your
shopping? Got your tree all set up and decorated? Figured out the yummy menu
yet? For those of you who celebrate Christmas, don’t you find there is always
so much to do this time of year? It is quite astounding that we find ourselves
in such a conundrum, because Christmas does arrive at the same time each and
every year! But alas, most of us seem to enjoy the hustle and bustle of waiting
until the last week to accomplish everything!
Yep that includes me. Although my
list is much smaller than it was when I first started, it seems that the hours
in a day have somehow succeeded in going by faster than I would like.
I also believe that the
reason we have a big turkey dinner at the holidays, is because most of us will
not have eaten a proper dinner in the week leading up to Christmas. Especially
those of us who work in the retail business, our days just get longer and
busier as the big day approaches, and take out and frozen dinners seem to be
the go to foods!
Now don’t get me wrong, I
love this time of year, probably even a little bit more because of the
craziness of it all! But there is something to be said about the holiday
spirit. It’s a silent, happy and somewhat peaceful sound that you can’t hear,
yet it manages to surround us and engulf our souls. It’s the reason that people
seem a little bit nicer, they walk a little bit lighter, and smile a lot
easier, and there almost seems to be an invisible glow of
goodness that emanates from them. Think of it like watching a happy, sappy,
romance movie, when the movie is over, it leaves you feeling all wonderful, warm
and fuzzy!! Yep that’s how Christmas
makes you feel!!!
So I would like to wish
everyone a most merry, happy and wonderfully sappy Christmas!!
