So Ready For Yule


Today is Monday, December 20, 2010. We are back under freeze warnings again the last few days. I do think that if it is going to be this cold, we should get to have snow. The thought of having to go to the post office this morning just hurts my bones. Freeze warning is over at 9:00 this morning, high to be 60 degrees.

The candy is finished and ready to be delivered, this is one of the fifteen trays that are ready to go. The album is finished wrapped and ready to ship. This was a learning experience, however it turned out nice and keeping fingers crossed that they like it. Getting the pictures proved to be the biggest challenge. I learned that I can take pictures with my digital camera, load them onto my computer and send them right to Wal-Mart to be picked up all under one hour. George went to get the pictures, one child couldn't seem to get any more than two pictures, they were both of the back of the kids heads.

My Yule log is made and ready to burn tomorrow. Looking back on this year, there has sure been a lot of uncertainty. George working in SC, coming home for a day and a half every other week, not knowing where we were going to be living or for how long. Not knowing how long he was going to be working where. The kids were scattered out all over looking for work. They have all moved back, one a little further away than he was, but they are all working and doing much better. Grandchild #11 was also born this year! Hoping that we stay at #11 for a while.

Tomorrow is Yule, we will have a Lunar eclipse, which hasn't happened on Yule in 274 years and won't happen again until 2094. Hoping that we have clear skies tomorrow, so looking forward to enjoying my Yule ritual. Wishing all of you a Blessed Yule!

Remember yesterday, dream about tomorrow, but live today. ~Brightest Blessings~

    This is an amazing week, is it not?!?

    Oh wow, those candies, made in so much heat, I remember. I do hope the people who receive them, appreciate them! And so glad you got the Album completed, even though not-total cooperation materialized.

    Gentle Yule hugs...
