Preparations

I'm at work today and almost had an anxiety attack when I realized the date.  Holy Cow!  It's December 9th already!!

I don't do a lot to celebrate Christmas since it's just the two of us and we have no children.   I used to decorate and send out cards but I don't anymore.  The cards are too expensive with postage and I don't have a lot of spare time to address them.  I'd rather call those close to me and talk with them.  And I'd rather spend spare time visiting with the residents of the Heritage Center and helping them keep in contact with their loved ones.  I'll put up a few things around the house and maybe make it look like something other than a Charlie Brown Christmas.  

In so far as gifts, I have very few that I buy for; Tom, Blaine and my secret Santa person at work...but I have the essential wine for my sister!  Lol

I guess its not all the trappings that make Christmas. ..its what you feel in your heart.  And I feel Christmas in my heart almost every day!

Namaste
