These are cool horse deevers we had at Thanksgiving at Dan's.
Today I made fruit cakes and on Friday I made something else that I just realized I cannot talk about here because some of the people who read this blog will get some for Christmas. That was a close call!
Christmas and I are doing fairly well so far. I have managed to stay out of the "I am responsible for the family's happiness at the holidays", the "we don't have enough $", the "I don't have enough time", and the "I wonder if I got them that before" traps. Feel like I am tap dancing around the quicksand of my mind, like a "Chipmunk roasting on an open fire...". I'll keep you posted on how it goes.
We have no decorations up yet, no tree and no lights - I should be upset, but I cannot question the wisdom of my self. I am making some gifts and just focusing on one day at a time. Went to a nice party last night and saw Teesha's cool and very HUGE art studio. Envy, envy.
This season just makes my juices flow. Why is it so short? I want to arrange a couple songs and quilt and bake and make cool, artsy gifts and go to parties and celebrate.....and now I need a nap!
