Happy Christmas

I hope that you all had a very happy Christmas! 

Some of the things I was thankful for over this holiday season was…


 A reason to build a gingerbread village, which became gifts for some special relatives. 


 The feeling of joy that came from celebrating, giving and spending time with loved ones.


Buying my very own Christmas tree and getting creative with gift wrapping.


 Being able to make rocky road and overdose on chocolate.


 For dogs that guard the pile of wrapping paper.


For festive table settings and delicious three course meals.


And most importantly for a Saviour that was born to give us eternal life. 

Happy as Larry.

Yesterday. Today. Holidays.


Yesterday Mr J and I shopped and ordered our wedding bands, bought a Christmas tree for a whopping thirteen dollars, treated ourselves to a doughnut to share and visited family for dinner. 

Today I jumped up early to assemble and decorate the Christmas tree. With no Christmas carols on CD, I listened to two hours of Glee's Christmas Mix on youtube. Quite good. I was greeted by at parcel at my door and I'm about to start my new book with a cup of tea, work a short shift and start planning this. Keeping my days filled. 

Holidays are giving me time to A) start a new book B) start making Christmas presents C) finalise wedding plans and D) drink lots of tea. This is great.
