It's starting to feel like Christmas

My *hated* task of the day was grocery shopping and my Journal page for today is below.

Christmas music playing, a fire burning, some baking, with the tree brought in from the deck plus a few decorations and it's beginning to feel like Christmas around here.

Oh, what a roller coaster of a Christmas ... I think I'd be moved to tears every year, too! :( I am glad you are able to find some kind of balance ... and your home scenes look beautifully festive!

Love your page. I love scrapping and if I was obsessed with quilts it would be the obbseession for me. Now I do when I can and I love finding inspiration from pages like yours! Im just binding the stars and stripes quilt from you site that has been sitting as a top awaiting patiently its turn. I hope youll drop on by in a few days when i (should) have it finished and photos posted.
Happy and hot in a summer christmas \Cherry

I so like the idea of a "hated task" of the day that I am going to add it to my life! Thanks for the great idea

Mary, I understand your struggle during the holidays ... we lost our oldest, Angie, on 12/23/99... It's difficult to have holiday cheer, but yet, you want to honor and remember those who have gone before ... and still enjoy family here on earth. Keep smiling.

(((hugs))) I lost my Dad on December 10th 5 years this year and I still cry and wish he was still here. I don't know that it ever gets easier.
I'll be thinking about you...
