These are a few of the holiday decorations we have up..I will add a few more to give you a feel of our home this season. It is my ABSOLUTE FAVORITE time of year. The love the Lord had for us embraces this season as we prepare for the Birthday of our Beloved Savior.
My beloved has been out of town for a week & will not be back until late next Friday.
He was in GA for weeks then home a week then RIchmond Va 2 weeks then home for a week for Thanksgiving then he left Sunday--The BUSIEST travel day of the year???
so what do we do?---drive him to the Charlotte airport for a flight to Richmond. Well.. it was beautiful weather until the Minute we parted(an act of God at our parting?) maybe? a nice thought..as I pulled away from the airport the rains beagn..here in our severe drought ridden part of the South East any rian is wecomed..but this day?? so I drove on the tristate & highways in a wonderful heavy rain. Stoping to do the usual errands ont he way home..drive thru dinner for the child- pick up the usual round of prescriptions & milk etc. I think he got thru airport security & boarded & landed before I got home. HEHEE..(I found some great sales at Walgreens & Food Lion & it kind of consumed some time) But we got some holiday funs things....a musical dancing snowman --adorable, the child discovered a singing dog whos head & mouth moves as he sings. Ordinarlythese would be silly expenses BUT with DH being gone & the holidays are for fun AND I have been a tad overloaded holding things up at home alone...I relented & tossed them in the cart.
Back home, in the rain-after unloading the van we got the new holiday team members out & called over Jollimon. He came tail wagging UNTIL we pressed the button them them & then the SINGING dog & musical singing snowman who was scooting about the kitchen overtook Jolli's sense abilities and he got wide eye & FREAKED & hurled himself into the kitchen cabinets..then tore thu the house in terror. Well it was entertaining for us. He now keeps a watche on these newest attractions in case they have the need to attack him I guess.
So apologies for the time I am missng - by the time everything is done at the end of a log day I manage to have a nice tun then fall into bed..I cant put words & fingers to the keyboard with out some energy & brain. So I am crocheting some Christmas angels in bed - if only a row a night. I have them in my latest travel bag with baggies of beautiful balls of yarn to make foo-foo squares for Heartmade Blessings.
Thanks for hanging in there as I hang by my usual thread....
