Winter
« on: Yesterday at 05:35:57 PM »
We have had a good dump of snow this year, after the years of drought this is the best Christmas present we could wish for. Well that and a hot bean bag for my poor back from shoveling snow.

We have already watched 4 Christmas movies, new and new to me, this year. All of them with corny plots and Christmas magic and isn't that really what the season is all about?

People will come from strange lands to hear me speak my words of wisdom. They will ask me the secret of life and I will tell them. Then maybe I'll finish off with a song. The Nomad

That's an impressive snowfall, Diane! No sign of the white stuff here in Scotland yet but it would be nice to get at least a dusting of it over Christmas.
With everything that's been going on, it's been difficult for me to get into the festive spirit. My sister, Diamond Lil, is still in hospital with her broken hip but, fingers crossed, she may get home early next week. On the other side of the emotional scale, my son and his partner welcomed a little girl into the world last week. My second granddaughter---a gorgeous wee thing called Norah. I'm so happy for them.
It will be a quiet Christmas for us with only four adults and my first granddaughter at the table. She is now three and a half and already excited about what's to come. Quiet but nice.
Okay, I'll wish you all festive greetings nearer the time. Meanwhile, I'll get the mulled wine out and watch "It's a Wonderful Life" in an attempt to get into the spirit....
