I am so excited!  I have gone shopping and purchased new Christmas ornaments (I gave my oldest son all of mine before I moved, except for a few "special ones"), and bought new lights, and we are going to get a real tree!  I have not had a Christmas tree since 2002, and I cannot wait!

 I put up my beautiful manger set, set out all my Angels and snowman, and it's "beginning to look a lot like Christmas"!  I tell you it is very strange preparing for the Holiday when it is in the 70's, but I love it!

I work from home, and I am sitting here listening to my Christmas playlist, and I tell you, it doesn't get any better than this! :-)

My youngest may be coming down with his girlfriend, if her mother allows.  I have given that one up to God and am working hard on not having any expectations.  I may not see any of my children this year.  Acceptance is the key....

All in all, life is wonderful, and I am very grateful to God for my sobriety and my serenity.

Have a day!  Good or bad...it's up to you!

Love, hugs & blessings...Sharon
