Oh, Christmas Tree

Today was good.  It started out with a bust, but as the day progressed, I felt less . . . anxious.  I think I just needed to be home.  So after church, that's what I did -- I stayed home.  I made a yummy and healthy dinner and watched two Christmas movies as I (finally) put up my Christmas tree.

There's nothing quite like sitting in the glow of a Christmas tree late at night.  It's so peaceful and relaxing.  It reminds me of all the wonderful blessings I have in life and of the things I want to accomplish.  It makes me want to write and bake and play boardgames all night, and yet it also makes me think of things that are . . . bigger and more important than what's going on in my little corner of the world.


Thing I'm thankful for: decorations at Christmastime
