Me: I have been having
the best times Pam. This life is amazing. I cannot begin to
describe the happiness I experience afloat. My Seaweed brings me
such joy.
And it's warm here! It
has been what we call balmy too. Think low 80's in the daytime
and low 70's at night. That perfect sleeping weather.
I did decorate for
Christmas. This year I did less than "normal" with fewer
ornaments on the tree. Just listening to my fellows (Bing
Crosby, Dean Martin, Frank Sinatra, Rosemary Clooney) serenade
me was such a pleasure.
A few years back I was
given some radio shows. Listening to them was fun too. I have
"It's a Wonderful Life" with Jimmy Steward and Scrooge, plus a
few others (Gildersleeves, Burns and Allen, etc.) so that is fun
too.
Music though is what I
like best about the holiday. And my tree. The tree is my
history.
I have two ornaments
left that belonged to my Grandma. She was born in 1895. A few
are from when I was a little girl. The tree is a look at where
I've come from...
One year I had a friend
(Tina from Oramae) who helped me decorate the tree. I had fun
doing that. She was nice as can be too as I shared the stories
behind the ornaments. Here there are no women and men-folk just
aren't into Christmas like I am.
That said, the day after
Christmas everything was taken down/put away. Except for the
stuff I missed. Don't ask. Suffice it to say I missed putting
away my whale. I'm sure there is more so will wait a few days
before I put the rest in the Christmas box.
Such is life in Florida.
Stay warm Pam, as much
as is possible. Please note: 24 is an age, not a temperature!
And thank you for your
comment. It is appreciated. |
