December is here and If you are anything like me, you might be wondering "How can this be"? Don't get me wrong. I love all the holidays, especially Christmas. I love decorating, buying gifts, wrapping gifts, lights, cookies, the music, I love going to church to see the nativity set up, I love going to the tree lighting in town. I love all of it.
I just wish there wasn't such a rush that is associated with it. You see, I believe in enjoying each holiday separetly. That means starting with October - I have several family birthdays - followed by Halloween. Now while my children are married and no longer living at home, I still enjoy decorating the outside of my home and of course giving out candy. I live in a development where we receive close to 100 kids trick or treating and it is fun for all.
Next is followed by Thanksgiving. Normally, a family traditional holiday focused around the table filled with food. Wheather at home or not, this is usually weeks of decision making with regard to where, what, who & when all will be prepared.
Alas, December 1st!!!! Now the above begings and oh yes, I almost forgot, Christmas Cards need to go out too.
Merry Christmas to all and To All a Good Night!
