stayed, same here.  We pick a day when no one HAS to run off somewhere else.  We're doing Christmas on the 26th.

Aren't we clever Thunder?  Then the whole day is OUR'S!

We are celebrating this year on Boxing Day as well.  We do what works best for all family members.  This year it is Boxing Day for us.  Here is a first...we had spaghetti and meatballs for dinner on Christmas Day.  Hehe.  That's a new one!

Mlc (blah) is something we all share on this forum.  But today we have something more pleasing and uplifting to share.  It's the moon.  We all share in this beautiful moon and it feels special.  It makes the world feel like a smaller place.

Merry Christmas forum friends.

The moon really has been such a great touchpoint, especially today. Something tangible we can all go outside and experience, and know that wherever we are in the world, it's the same moon we're all looking at together. Love you all so much!

Non-traditional meal here too today. Mexican chicken casserole! Quick and easy. The power went out in my neighborhood for about an hour and a half at lunchtime, so I was relieved I didn't have a turkey in the oven.

Wow, what a beautiful thought, all of us were looking at this beautiful moon the last two nights.  Tonight, we even got a small dusting of snow, but the odd part was, the clouds had literally circled the moon, so it remained completely unblocked and lighting the world.  Amazing.  It is very comforting to know that so many people I deeply care about, were all watching it as well. 

Our power went out for a few hours yesterday.  Apparently we got some of the "winds", the very weak ones from the tornado that hit poor Mississippi, terrible, just terrible.  Life is so fragile.  It makes me wonder why we are so CARELESS with it. 

Hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and MiMix, I will be thinking about you, as I prepare our Christmas dinner as well, today.  Is hubby attending?

We got more than a dusting over night and its to continue all day.

Guess I tempted the snow gods.

Not even a dusting Thunder!  In the brightness of that super Winter Moon, it looked like snow, but was actually just frost.  Beautiful day here today.  The lake so wants to freeze, obviously the water temp is the same as the air, so as soon as it dips under freezing point, a light skim of ice forms... then as the day sets it melts completely.

They had forecasted a bit of snow for today... but the sky is blue and clear... temp is hugging just above freezing. Quite a beautiful Christmas though, even without the snow!

Yup, hubby came alright.  He brought me gifts.  He brought everyone gifts.  Was so excited to give us gifts. Probably because he got them all on his own...no help from me.

  He asked me for my thoughts on some general stuff (looking for validation). I gave him my honest opinion...which pretty much was in line with his thoughts.   He explained that others strongly disagreed, did not follow his advice.  BIG SHOCK.  Like everyone should think like His Royal Highness.

I actually asked him to do some things to help out.  He was very willing.  He got to experience my elderly moms new neediness and it struck at his very nice compassionate side.

I could write a book but I still don't think I could ever explain this mess to my satisfaction.  It's just too weird.

Sadly the nights have not been very clear here. But yesterday I managed to see the full moon well for a little while. And tonight it is visible among the cloudy sky.

Mimix, we could all probably right books about this, but never be able to fully explain it to our satisfaction.

I'm so pleased your h came and was so very pleasant, prezzies and everything... wow!  If only it was understandable eh? Glad you had a nice day.  Our's was very successful too.  Such a lot of work though for so many people.  22 in total.
