Christmas Eve tidings

well the stockings are hung (or laid out), Glen's gift is on the TV in the bag from the store (men!), the cookies are made and iced, the kitchen is clean. I get to prepare the rest of the dinner, go watch the National Weather Service show where Santa's sleigh is on the evening news (my favorite part), and then entertain friends and neighbors. Oh, and I still have to get my jams to the neighbors. What a luxury, to have a day to get dressed in my new Christmas apron from my friend, cook and bake and clean, and then get to eat, drink and be merry. I hope where ever you are and however you celebrate, these blessed days bring you peace and love. And presents, of course. the knitting needles came yesterday!
