on the first day of december:
woke to sun shining
drank a lot of coffee
wore a cozy sweater and slippers
watched/listened to a word-by-word teaching on philippians 1:3-11
prayed with my family
packed up some snail mail - a tiny gift, some samples of fabulous shampoo, and socks to be replaced
checked over the list of christmas card addresses - in preparation for the arrival of the cards i ordered yesterday
helped isaac cover the seat for his snowmobile - painters canvas, upholstery tacks, thread, and hot glue
made stir fry with left-over turkey and left-over veggies
thought about getting out the christmas tree - but didn't just yet - maybe one evening this week
did some laundry
and will end the day watching the downton abbey movie
.. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ..
sending all of you my best wishes for a merry and bright december
also - some tips for steering clear of the crazy, and doing more enjoying and less stressing
.. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. .. ..
go gently, love fiercely, and be wonderful.
xoxo, e
