hello  my sweet friend,

here I'm back...feeling somewhat better !!...

Don't worry : I intend to be more prudent and to take care...and most of all ; I'll obey the doctor and shall go to bed earlier...

Never too late to become obedient....

oh yes! that's it !! : if I'm naughty Santa Claus  will ignore me..LOL LOL

It's more agreable to smile..isn't it...

Have a blessed Xmas week.

I wish you a very nice evening followed by a good and restful night.

Thank you for your precious friendship.

Lots of love.

My goodness where did the month of December go?  I just had my birthday and the month is almost gone.  Christmas is almost here.  

All of God's creatures are excited for Christmas day to arrive!  

I want a hippopotamus for Christmas….only a hippopotamus will do 

Sing & dance and share that Christmas joy with everyone!  Thank you Maryline for letting me steal your graphic!  

But don't forget to share Christ and the true meaning of Christmas.  

Several years ago, I made & sent out the above for our Christmas Cards.  I don't always get the time to do that because when others want off, I like to work so they can be with family.  We are blessed to see our family during the year.  

I am so grateful that we are all part of God's flock and that we are all family.  Blessings & Hugs & lots of LOVE!  Pam  

Have a good night, dear friend

Though I'm getting better, I still need much rest.

I'll obey the doctor, this time...and I'll go to bed earlier, in future...

Dream nicely...and I see you tomorrow.

Lots of love

“Elegance is a radiant inner peace.

Grace is the capacity to give,

as well as to receive and be grateful.

Mystery is a hidden laugh

always ready to surface!

Glamour only radiates if there is sublime courage

and bravery within:

glamour is like the moon;

it only shines because the sun is there.”

Thank goodness tomorrow is Friday!  Blessings & Hugs!  Pam

We are who we are, neither as good 

nor as bad as we're made out to be. 

And who we are doesn't change 

how we truly feel, only our freedom 

to follow those feelings.

~ Melissa Marr ~

No matter what happens, 

in most cases there is a way forward. 

Move forward by assessing the facts, 

with a vision of the ideal outcome in mind. 

Act with kindness, consideration, and care. 

And if there isn't a way yet, 

it's time to forge one.

Hello Friends,  have a warm and cozy week as we count down to the big day!

I will not be here on a daily basis to post to you after today.  I start working tomorrow, Wednesday.  I work through Friday, January 2nd.  I will try to read, answer or send a graphic when I have time.  I have so many pretty Christmas graphics to share but my time will be very limited.  Thank you for understanding!  

Whether you celebrate Christmas Texas style in warm weather, 

or are knee deep in snow celebrating Christmas, 

remember the reason for a true Christmas is the birth of Jesus and

be a light to everyone you meet, write or talk to each day of your life.  

You weren't born to please anyone; 

you have to live life to express yourself, 

not to impress anyone. 

Don't pretend to be someone you're not, 

and never lose yourself seeking 

the acceptance and approval of others.

~ Roy T. Bennett ~

Middle of December and just 10 days until Christmas!  

Oh what a joyous time of the year!  I hope you feel the peace and the love all around you.  

Your tree should be up and decorated by now and presents all around it.  

If you have snow, I hope you had fun with friends and family making snowmen in your yard.  

My prayer for you and my wish for you this day and all the days to come.  

      Hi, dear friend

  MERRY CHRISTMAS

Have a nice Sunday, and a blessed new week ahead

Much love
