Thinking About Christmas

I slept late today and it felt good. It seems like the month of December has flown by and I hardly got to notice the days being checked off on the calendar. I don't mind though, each and every day was fun, full of blessings that filled me to the core with gratitude for the life I have.

Now that Christmas is over, I would be perfectly happy to take all decorations down, tree included and get back to the normal, pre- Christmas life. I think part of the reason I feel this way, is my love of no clutter and after the holiday, the decorations feel a bit like clutter to me. All the anticipation associated with them is over. I want my corner back for my rocking chair where the tree now sits, that sort of thing.

I have been thinking about what I want to see for myself in the new year. Been making a mental list of goals and objectives and by weekend they will meet with paper and pen and become a commitment of sorts. Its good to write down what you want to see happen, and better yet if you can share them with someone. No doubt you will all get to see my list....not many secrets in my life : )

The city park, with all the lights

and the gazebo all lit up is where Melissa and James and Melanie and Casi both got married, a special place indeed !
