Christmastime's a-coming

Sorry that I haven't posted for some time.  Work and life seem to have that effect sometimes.  Nevertheless, I thought that I'd write a little blurb to acknowledge that I'm still here :)!

Well, Christmas is fast approaching!  I tried to get ahead of the game this year, and was doing pretty good, however it's now 17 days away and I still have loads of things to do - including lots of shopping for gifts.

I used to absolutely love Christmas, but it seems that each year it becomes more commercial and more materialistic, that the entire meaning of Christmas is lost.  Yes, I know we can have some control over that, and really make Christmas what we want it to be ... but it's just not that fun when everyone else on the planet is out trying to buy the perfect gift, or see how many gifts they can stuff under the tree.

Rather than get myself worked up of this, I've attempted to at least keep the Christmas spirit in our home ... which is still a work in progress :)!

Time to do some more decorating ... Season's Greetings!!
