A Christmas still life for this last day of November.
We got our first Christmas card; it is time to finalize the newsletter, cut the photo wallets, and write the cards.
It's time to plot our which activities we want to get to in December, and get them on the calendar. I just sent out a Connections e-mail about four activities offered just this next weekend, oy!
It's definitely time to wrap up my Christmas projects - fruitcake, bottle covers, stitched ornaments.
And it's time to escape from all the holiday hoopla in Christmas themed novels. I normally read the most between Thanksgiving and New Years.
"For many of us, sadly, the spirit of Christmas is "hurry". And yet, eventually, the hour comes when the rushing ends and the race against the calendar mercifully comes to a close...The pre-Christmas rush may do us greater service than we realize. With all its temporal confusion, it may just help us to see that by contrast, Christmas itself is eternal." - Burton Hills
