just sort of lay low and slip between the old and the new.
ease on through with hardly a ripple.
quiet like.

I’ve spent the day preparing a feast for our family and friends. Brni cleaned and set the house to rights and then the two of us sat watching the DVD set of Boston Legal as we wrapped presents to put under the tree.
I’m very much into the holiday season this year. I feel better physically than I have for a long time, plus both my children are in a good place this year. There’s also a weird peace knowing that my dad is not suffering the confusion of dementia anymore. I’m sad he’s gone, but relieved he’s at peace.
So tomorrow–no today–I will celebrate Solstice/Yule/Christmas by offering food from my heart to those I love and cherish.
Happy Christmas to all, friends and family.

all are for gifting family and friends this christmas. i have more to do: a scottish santa for my sister and her scottish husband, a couple more for special friends, a frostie for my cousin and i might do a La Befana for a small friend. at the current rate of a santa a day, i may just finish!

i dunno…sometimes i think this is a good thing to pursue. other times…i think i suck.
some santas and frosties…
some other stuff in various stages of undoneness…

So, for the past week, Action News and the other branded news and weather broadcasters have been predicting frigid arctic cold blanketing the Delaware Valley — any day now.
Today was supposed to *be the day* the cold hits. I went outside this morning in my bare feet to test the cold.not so bad.
I figured, well, maybe it’s supposed to get dangerously cold later in the day.So, later in the day I donned heavy jacket, gloves, scarf, etc., went outside and promptly went back in the house to shed the aforementioned outerwear and slipped into my bright orange ‘tween jacket. No need for gloves or scarf.
So, now they say the cold will hit any minute now. Be prepared. Be scared.
I’m so tired of the media turning every minor shift or event into a national emergency.I have advice to de-wimpify yourself:
go outside.
naked.
when it’s cold.
it’s good for you. -
