Hi Everyone!<\/p>\n

How are you doing today out there in blog land? It’s crazy out there with everyone shopping isn’t it? As my husband always says they don’t change the date?<\/p>\n

I remember always doing my\u00a0shopping on\u00a0Christmas\u00a0Eve and\u00a0I remember going downtown with my wonderful sister-in-law Darlene<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0for our Swiss Chalet lunch. \u00a0That is a good Christmas memory for sure.<\/p>\n

I have to tell you I never quite got the whole Christmas thing? Nothing to do with religion as far as I’m concerned because wasn’t\u00a0Jesus born in June according to the planets and stars? I think if you check into it it was done by the powers that be to offset some sort of pagan celebration. Oh well whatever it is it is and I guess any day that brings family together is a good thing and any day to celebrate Jesus and goodness\u00a0is also good. I guess practicing what he taught is even better.<\/p>\n

I know people born later in May don’t really get Christmas as they are usually in a Saturn time which is a bit depressing anyway.<\/p>\n

Sure I had the tree (pink) \u00a0and everything when the kids were small and loved Christmas morning for them but after they are older it’s really just a gift exchange.<\/p>\n

I love when people are into it and they decorate everything and get excited. How spirited they are and I do adore that. Passion in any form is tops in my book.<\/p>\n

So I guess I’m just a Scrooge is what this blog is saying. Sorry! Happier tidings next blog.<\/p>\n
