    I really don’t know what has happened to this year. It’s gone past quicker than any other I can remember. Perhaps it’s because we lost a whole season – summer!

    There quite a bit of Christmas decoration around but haven’t done any for my self.

    Coffee is on.

    And even closer to the real deal – and real end of the year – on the Winter Solstice

      So many date markers, they mean different things to different people.

      Christmas celebrates the birth of Jesus, but he was not born on December the 25th. The scriptures and related texts indicate the birth as being in the summer months. July I think…

      The Winter Solstice and Christmas (the dates) are just another day in the calendar. But the Solstice is tangible and always occurs around that date ;-)

      The time will go quickly it always seems to these days…

      As to who will get their cards sorted and posted, I am not sure..

      I hope you have a great weekend too :-)
