Lady Travels Towards "Joyeux Noel"

Welcome to my home

It's the most wonderful time of the year!

CHRISTmas is here, bringing good cheer!

I hope this is what you are humming today.

These are a few of my favorite things...

Daughter Jacquie's gift to me from
Anthropologie, one of my favorite shops!

My halls are decked with boughs of holly,

  ice skates are scattered,

and loads of laughing snowmen everywhere.

The calendar is full

and yet I will find time

for ultimate quietness

to give thanks to the Lord

for all He has done

throughout this past year.

Country French is my cozy preference
(I have since removed this table and chairs to
create my 'dreaming corner')

As you gather with

family and friends,

remember to give them 

extra hugs and kind words.

Life is too short to 

forget the small, sweet

acts of kindness.

Believe.  I spell it BeLeaf

Writer's Note:

I'm a writer who doesn't 

write as much as I should.

However, I spent the past two hours

writing and then submitting

a 500-word essay to a contest titled

'I Inspired Someone to Take A Risk and Be Gutsy!'

I wasn't aware that I had inspired anyone,
until a lovely lady from my past,

Regina Martin Huaracha,
notified me to give me the news
that I had inspired her!
And to my surprise, it was announced that
I WON the contest!!

I shall include the essay on my next blog,

I'm not meaning to 'ring my own bell'

but I want to make you aware that 

someone is watching you.

You just might be someone's inspiration.

I wish you oceans of Christmas blessings!

God sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts.
