‘Tis The Season

This post has been long in coming. I don’t think that I was ever absent from my blog for quite so long. But I think that most of you will understand why I have found so little time to sit down and post.

Christmas is almost here and this year I still have not got my act together. There are still a few people I need to buy gifts for, some more baking to do and then some last minute cleaning. It has been hectic, to say the least. Each year I promise myself not to stress out but somehow I always get caught up in the rush. It has been busy at work too, tying up lose ends and finalising projects. I have been so tired by the time I got back home that I have not had the energy to post for several weeks. Having a 3 year old around the house helps increase the Christmas spirit but also the clutter. But I am not complaining. My only impossible wish is to have a white Christmas. But as you all know, snow and the Mediterranean do not go well together. So each day I sit in front of my screen and ooh and aah over the photos posted by some of my blogging friends from colder climes. Our forecast is for a warm, humid Christmas day. Oh well, I will have to live with it. In the meantime, I am belatedly sharing some photos of my Christmas decorations.

I wish you all a joyful and peaceful Christmas and invite you to read an article I wrote for Triond last year. Entitled The True Meaning of Christmas it is a profound look at what makes this season so special for me.

 

    

I would like to thank all of you who stop by and read my posts for your constant support and friendship and I would also like to express my sincere gratitude to all those of you who have recently passed on awards. I am sorry but I have not had the time to pass them on. I hope to do so in the coming weeks. Please rest assured that they are always appreciated.
