The box of Christmas Wishes arrived at their destination.
Loops were added this year so the packages could hang from a banister, railing, mantle, tree, or whatever.
Day 24 contains some special things that wouldn’t fit inside those small packets.
I love how my daughter decorated her mantel this year.
Do you do anything special for Advent?
This day seemed like a long time away way back then… Happy Birthday to the man I love!
When I get older losing my hair
Many years from now
Will you still be sending me a valentine
Birthday greetings, bottle of wine?
If I’d been out till quarter to three
Would you lock the door?
Will you still need me, will you still feed me
When I’m sixty-four?
You’ll be older too
And if you say the word
I could stay with you
I could be handy, mending a fuse
When your lights have gone
You can knit a sweater by the fireside
Sunday mornings go for a ride
Doing the garden, digging the weeds
Who could ask for more?
Will you still need me, will you still feed me
When I’m sixty-four?
Every summer we can rent a cottage in the Isle of Wight
If it’s not too dear
We shall scrimp and save
Grandchildren on your knee
Vera, Chuck & Dave
Send me a postcard, drop me a line
Stating point of view
Indicate precisely what you mean to say
Yours sincerely, wasting away
Give me your answer, fill in a form
Mine for evermore
Will you still need me, will you still feed me
When I’m sixty-four?
Ho!

Enjoy the day!
When the kids were still living at home, I planned our weekly meals based on who had to go where and when each evening. Piano lessons, drum lessons, band practice (for Mr. Aitch and the kids), soccer practice, orthodontist appointments, meetings, teaching, you name it. Something was happening practically every weeknight so I had to be organized. I made 30-minute meals long before Rachael Ray coined the phrase.
I went to the market every Sunday morning right after church while my kids were in CCD (Sunday School for the non-Catholics). I still go then even though I don’t have to. It’s just a habit.
The newspaper ads helped me decide our meals as I mostly bought whatever was on sale. Ribs were on sale this week so that’s what we had Sunday evening but I didn’t think much about the rest of the week.
Like tonight.
I have no idea what to have.
What are you fixing for dinner tonight?
What did you have last night?
Any ideas for tomorrow?
