Only a few days left until Christmas. I got my tree decorated this last week and lights up outside. It really comes fast and then over so quickly. When I was kid, Christmas was really a joy. I lived in Chicago and it was always snowing when we went to church on Christmas Eve. We played in the snow, made angels, ice skated and dug tunnels along the parkways. Shopping for special gifts and baking was a very wonderful time of my life. I now live in Southern California, so no snow but has really be cold lately. I miss too that the real meaning of Christmas is disappearing in our society. May we remember it is the birthday of Christ and that is what we celebrate. Most of my family is gone or moved away, so it's just husband, daughter and grandson. Today is my birthday- a Christmas baby I am, and not feeling old at all. I keep very active, creating and quilting. Walk every morning and being successful in a good weight loss this year. Got the best card from my sister-in-law that said "Forever 39" and that's really what I feel like.
A Very Merry Christmas to everyone and much peace for the New Year 2012.
