Christmas Cheer! Skal!


Good Evening, or whatever is the best greeting to you, in your part of the world!

Am glad it is nightfall; will be seeing our bed early tonight. Methinks with the days becoming darker earlier, along with this cold Arctic air mass, the instinct is to just stay put indoors; as if in a 'snug as a bug' cocoon.

Enjoyed a really nice tid lunch / visit with my daughter, the twins, and their tenacious pug / bulldog, 'Pedro' today. It is refreshing to see how active 2 little boys can be; into everything, non-stop! However, they are listening more, learning how to speak and pronounce words; so they are molding into quite the unique personalities. I am thankful too, that they are not identical! LOL! The little guys loved the mugs and the 'snow scenes' (you can refer to yesterday's bit post if you wish); and methinks the book, 'Woman to Woman', by Joyce Meyer, will be a tremendous resource of inspiration to her. The bubble bath will be a welcomed treat as well, am sure! She gave me a beautiful turquoise sarong from Hawaii; when she, her husband, and boys were there a month ago for a week's vacation. Seems so long ago!

Alan stayed home and 'manned the fort'; if you will; still no news. However, we are going to remain positive and have the FAITH, that He will Provide Solution.

Tidbit - Make a genuine effort to 'nurture' and 'solidify' better relationships with family members; particularly during these challenging times. Also, have empathy and compassion for all those you meet - daily.

Bittid - Pray to Him for 'Understanding', Guidance, and His Words of Wisdom, each and every day. Also, 'Praise Him In ALL Things', regardless of your situation! If you ask Him to carry your burdens, He does - always. He never gives you more than you can handle; and do your best, to 'have a calm' and 'keep things simple.'

We are going to savour heated up hors'd'oeuvres, with a glass or two of chilled white wine. May sound like a strange repas combination; however, Alan and I are on 'the same page' for dinner tonight. Warmed up sausage bittid rolls from Costco, soon to be enjoyed! They smell delicious! Mmmmm. Yum! Just hit me, even baking or taking a box of Costco frozen goodies, can be a useful and appreciated gift tidbit!

Am going to appreciate the same photo image as in yesterday's post; as the picture looks so 'Christmassy', and full of wonderful warmth!

Good Night and God Bless.
