Good Morning and Welcome to Sunday the 27th day of December, 2015.
I had to check the calendar for the actual day of the week.
My computer shows the calendar date on the bottom so I knew it was the 27th before I knew it was Sunday.
Where has the time gone?
We always seems to ask that question.
I think it is likely the most asked question of all time?
Here we are Christmas for most folks is done.
There are some folks who celebrate Christmas in January.
There are others who celebrate the holidays several times due to family being in different places.
But for me and mine it is over.
The preparations, the excitement and the final act are all done.
It was a great one.
One of my gifts was an “Adult Colouring Book” and Crayola pencil crayons …. I have always loved to colour.
Honestly other than colouring in one of the children’s books and with the wax crayons that I have in the house, I never thought there would be such a thing as an Adult Colouring Book.
There are 60 pencil crayons ….. man would have been great to have had that many as a child.
There are colours that I have not seen before …. so happy to colour the DRAGONFLY and the OWL in my Enchanted Colouring BOOK.
I had been saying that I had wished it had been my idea …. this new old craze.
The first Christmas since moving to Edmonton where we held the celebration somewhere other than at my house.
I truly enjoyed being pampered at my daughter and son-in-law’s new house/home.
We all thought that having the Christmas meal catered was the best thing since “sliced bread.”
At first we debated about the amount as it sat in the small boxed containers but as we started to dish it found it was more than enough.
Perhaps I should reword that …. there was enough of everything but POTATOES, we are used to having about 10 pounds of them…. I think there was about 1 pound mashed.
It was funny…..
Alvin …. well he did start venturing up and down the stairs without being coaxed.
Will have to work on the sleeping thing.
Yesterday I called my siblings and spoke to each one of them.
They all celebrated with family and friends.
It is a good thing that there remain a few days in December.
Just five days until we bring in the New Year.
Five days to think about the past year.
Five days.
Well I hear the shower calling me… for some reason this morning my muscles feel sore.
The shower will loosen them up.
I hope that you have a great Sunday December 27th, 2015.
Can you believe that we are only a few days over four years away from the year 2020 ….
Blows my mind.
So cool…..
Sounds space age …..
Hopefully the human race will work out some things over the next four years, and we will be better caretakers of this oasis we call “Earth.”
Happy Sunday.
See you tomorrow.
Special Hello to: my family and friends all over the planet.
Always, Carol and Alvin
