So I've just been taking it easy these last few days. I've been a bit tired lately and have decided not to push myself to keep up with all my projects and those last minute Christmas wild hairs I always get! Got the cards out, a few prezzies and I think I'll have to be satisfied with that this year.
Needless to say, I haven't done much lately in my Journal Your Christmas project. I went to bed last night at 7:00 pm. I woke up around 10:00 pm and then we ended up watching a bunch of episides of the "Dog Whisperer" on The History Channel. Wow, I really enjoy that show! Almost makes me wish we could get a dog!
Today was spent taking care of a few last bits...a stop at Starbucks, some banking, a trip to the Liquor Store to finish up a few gifts and then we played Santa Claus and delivered some gifts to friends and family. We visited Glen's brother and family and took some gifties for the kids and a bottle of Limoncella for the grown ups! That stuff is SO tasty! We bought ourselves a bottle too!!! It was a really fun visit. Here is a picture of the Erica and Daniel. I just love these two...and they're getting so big!!
I'm looking forward to tomorrow. Glen and I are planning on going to the Willamette National Cemetery to visit his Mom and see if my Daddy's gravemarker has arrived. It would be a good day to go to The Grotto too and light some prayer candles. Doing that little thing always brings me such peace and helps bring me back to center. It helps me prioritze the things in my life that are important which helps me trust that my life is heading in the right direction towards happiness, contentment, and fulfillment.
Okay, before I dive in and start talking about New Year's Resolutions (it IS that time of year!), I'd better run off to bed!
Take care and talk to you soon!
Greetings. Those "last minute Christms wild hairs" Oh how I relate to that. Did the same as you this year. Just chilled.

Great to see the pics of Erica and Daniel. I think of them so very fondly. Love the Grotto--makes me remember one of the many places that are so wonderful in the Portland area.

Takin' it easy is so wonderful for you and your health. Sometimes, when it's a holiday like this, it's very stressful.

Takin' it easy is good for your health, sometimes when it is a holiday like this can be stressful and that's when you get sick. So good for you!
