Christmas is basically just a week away! Silly me, I didn't think December would be all that busy. By and large, it was busy with people which is a great thing. I like people!! :) They are the best part of any time of year! I just wish I had the same stamina I used to, but on the other hand, I feel like the time spent is of greater quality.
Oddly enough, it doesn't yet feel like Christmas. Is this because I'm getting older? Is it because the hub-bub of activity right around the holidays is a little overwhelming these days? Or is the feeling still coming?
I'm sure most of us are feeling the economic crunch. I have always enjoyed the gift giving part of the holiday. It's something, I think, I have inherited from my mother! No matter the budget I enjoy the process! I also like that Brian and I don't exchange Christmas gifts. It's kind of odd I think since I'm so about wrapping and opening presents. We might get some stocking stuffer presents, just little things, but otherwise we've decided to spend money on ourselves throughout the year with a vacation or going out on dates! I love that about us!!
Not sure how much I'll blog in the coming days. It's been rather lacking all of December. But I do want to wish you all a Merry Christmas. I pray it's filled with laughter, family, friends and the joy of Jesus.
