It is time to stop everything for about two weeks and concentrate only on family, friends, Christmas and New Year’s Day. Time to make cookies—which I am doing tomorrow. Time to get out the DVDs of old-time holiday movie classics that never fail to make for smiles, along with the Christmas episodes from old television shows. Our Victorian home looks like a Christmas from the late 1800’s landed all about. There is a warmth and a gentle manner to the holiday in our home that lands far more on tradition and nostalgic moods than commercialism. I would have it no other way. The photo in the banner, through the end of this year, is what my family home in Hancock looked like during a snowstorm. Love the look and the way it makes me feel. The memory of those wintery days when as a child I watched the snow piling high still brings broad smiles.
So until the bustling year takes hold everything will now slow to a crawl for those in this home. Trust in yours, too.
I wish my readers a Merry Christmas and Happy Chanukah, and a very Happy New Year!
I hope you are a part of this blog in 2020. I wonder if there will anything to write about…….?
