… and they make me cry… every… single… time.

There are many versions by various artists of this song, but I do love The Eagles. And, just for the record, I’m not lonesome or longing for someone this Christmas although I would love to have some dearly departed relatives with us once again to celebrate Jesus’ birth. Enjoy!

I’m not keeping the baby this week so had a little time to play last night and today. Ed mailed a few cards for us this year and then I’ve created the online version. Hope you and yours have a very Merry Christmas and a wonderful New Year!

Our Christmas Card

Remember I said no decorations indoors here at the house? Well, I managed to satisfy my need to make things look festive by playing in my favorite program. I was the challenger at Plus PSP this week and provided a stocking with instructions to create a Christmas or winter theme. I managed two images and let me warn you the file size is not huge, but the images are rather large.

Just when I think I can motivate myself to post every now and again, I have once again failed even that piddly goal. Two posts last month and so far NONE this month… until now that is.

I am enjoying keeping the baby girl. She has been good for my spirits. I mean, really, how can you not have an enjoyable time with a sweet one who thinks you hung the moon and is constantly grinning at you? She is a good baby, easy to please, quick to smile and yes, she has already wormed her way into my heart. I already loved her cause she belongs to Brad and I’ve loved him for 26 years now. But, seeing her daily has increased that love ten-fold. I made the comment to my friend last weekend that I guessed it was official, I am attached for I was missing her since it was Saturday and I was not getting to see her that day.

In other news, we have outside Christmas lights, but nary a one is burning indoors. I love my decorations and want to enjoy them this year, but I’m also thinking at this late date, I just might not take them out of storage.

And even more Christmas related news… I have one… ONE… present purchased! I’m only typing this so I can really believe it! I’m not actually sweating it though. I’ve found I do better at the last minute thing and have actually bought better gifts the closer to THE day I need them cause of the sales.

To stop this rambling mess and in case I don’t manage to post again…. I hope you all have a very Merry Christmas and a healthy, happy New Year!
