Well, It's Christmas day! So first and foremost I hope you have all had a very Merry Christmas.
I've been surrounded with so many wonderful people who enjoy surprising me with gifts of my favorite things. Duckie things, teacup puzzles, tea, chocolate, movies, jewelry, and even shoes. It's been a blessing filled Christmas.
I'm not going to lie, this Christmas has been full of a lot of rough moments too but mom and I are trying to get through. I've become restless, unable to sit still for more than 5 minutes at a time, but because of that I've gotten A LOT done.
I did the Feast of St. Thomas single ladies thing on Dec 21st. Though I DID have a dream (google Feast of Saint Thomas) I don't know what it was about... or who.
OH! My headaches are doing a little better as well...
I'm looking forward to the new year, starting a list of things that I want to get done in 2015, also will be singing in front of people for the first time in 4 years on Dec. 28... Nervous about that one.
Hows everyone else doing? Much love and blessings to you and yours.

Cranberry Bliss
It's winter, which means it's cold.
It's Christmas time, which means so many Christmas miracles are happening.
This is the time of year where so many good things happen, you see God's love in places you don't normally see it.
People that often seem invisible are now very visible to the eyes as many.
There is also so much sadness, bad things happen to a lot of people during this time. Bad memories resurface.
The world stops and moves on all at once and by Jan 1st your not sure how you lost so much time, but had so much time for so many things. It's beautiful and confusing in one breath.
This is my life right now, worry, and strength, sadness and bliss, blessings and stress...
I often think this must have been how Mary and Joseph felt before Jesus was born. That stress and worry through at the beginning, a sadness looming even though something amazing would happen soon... Mary's strength, then Joseph's as he stepped up. The bliss that came and the blessing that was Jesus... all these mixed up feelings that leave you wondering, where did the time go, and what now? But then that strength comes again and helps you through, the strength of God. It's beautiful and powerful and it is there for us all. there for the taking if we want it, if we reach for it.
I'm praying for you, my friends.
