Well, it is Christmas week. Final preparations under way. I went to Holland yesterday and forgot to stop at Barnes and Noble to pick up a book for my niece Lauren. So, I am on my way today. Or, I might just buy online and have it shipped to her.
Drew is coming in tomorrow night from Chicago. He will be spending Christmas here with me. He plans to stay through new year's. I am looking forward to it.
Compared to the rest of the nation we hardly have any snow here. We are actually very lucky. Rain and mudslides in California, 15 feet of snow (yes FEET) in the mountains of California, blizzards in the midwest and east coast. We have just about six inches of snow...if that. I'm thankful.
Compared to last year's "month from hell" this is such a laid back, relaxing holiday. Last year was just pure hell. I remember calling my mom at one point and saying I just wanted to throw out all of the Chirstmas decorations. I was just over it. I didn't think I would be able to ever look at the beautiful decorations the same way again. It's amazing how the healing process goes. I can look at them all with joy and delight. Fond and happy memories. - Jimmy
