That Time of Year

Walking downtown
All bundled up. It's cold here!
Just waking up.

I was hoping to post something new every couple of days, but I don't think this is the time of year for that to happen. I've been feeling completely frazzled, going to parties, wrapping gifts, decorating the house and tree, and filling out Christmas cards. And then I reminded myself how much I love this time of year and I should be thankful that I have friends and family to share all of these things with. And I hope every day I can stop for a few minutes and remember why we celebrate Christmas in the first place.
