Well, it's here. December. Countdown to Christmas, that started about September, has gone into hyper drive! To many it has become an over-rated, expensive waste of time. However, it need not be.
Several years ago we decided as a family that the opportunity to gather together for several days at the end of the year was an occasion to celebrate. It meant we had made it through another year with all the good things as well as the trials and tribulations. We still have a tree decorated with baubles from our childhood as well as our childrens' and add the odd new one now and then - themed it is not!
Presents are thoughtful gifts that have been fun to find often in charity shops - for isn't that what Christams is all about?
And the meal is the centre of the day.
So enjoy December; before you know it, it will be cold and dark January.
