I decided early on that this year was going to be about the reason for the season and how much there is to be thankful for. One of which is: Not being a horseback in a freezing rain pushing cows to the corrals.
The presents are wrapped and shipped or waiting to be delivered. Two small trees and a few other decorations are up in the hovel.

With All the hustle and bustle of this time of year most people have been friendly and kind. Then there are the few that seem to be just rude no matter the season. There was one such woman the other day at the UPS store. She was pacing around the store, I was standing in line. When another clerk came in, pointed at me, and said "I'll take the next person in line." Since the pacing lady!? was in the store before me, I wanted to let her know that the clerk could help her now. I said "Are you in line, Because the..." When she turned to me and snapped "Are you an idiot, of course I'm in line! Do you think I would be here if I weren't!" I took a deep breath, and whispered a prayer to myself: "let God & karma take care of her." As she glared at me, grabbed a box from a side table and stomped up to the counter, I'm pretty sure she had no idea how God's grace saved both of us that day.
It has been raining, raining, raining here, but darn it doesn't look like we will get snow for Christmas.
All the kids & grandkids are well and good!!! I'm warm and dry, baking cookies, drinking eggnog, and watching movies with Willie.
Wishing you and yours a Blessed Christmas!
