Time

Time is such a weird, wonderful, surprising, fast, yet slow moving thing!  We complain that things take 'forever' to get done.  Then, with a little time, we are complaining that it (time) went too fast.  Why is that?

This year has gone by so quickly, and yet, I can think back to something that happened in January and say, "That was a long time ago!".  I am sure you feel that way sometimes.  It's amazing that our mind works in this way. 

I have been busy so haven't taken the time to put up a post. You know how some days you could be sitting around with things to do but you put them off and then other days you are looking for something to do and it's like there is nothing to do and you are bored.  Some days fly by and you can't believe it's time to sleep when other days it seems the day is taking extra long to end.  I have now taken the time to sit, even though I do a lot of that, and create a post for you readers so that you don't leave me. 
 
For Thanksgiving, we went to the hospital to have a family get together with my grandpa, the one who had health issues, and grandma.  All but two cousins, one uncle, and one aunt were there.  You know, the place or time doesn't matter one bit when you have a loving family surrounding you.  I thank God that my family is that kind of loving family, who understand and try to agree and not make fuss over everything.  It was really one of the best Thanksgivings we had, I think, anyway.  Almost everyone was there, we were relaxed, my grandpa had easy access to his room when he got tired, we had wonderful food, and great family time.  I am so thankful for all of that.  I hope you all had a great Thanksgiving as well. 
I am happy to say that my grandpa and grandma were able to return to their warm home and are enjoying it so much!  Thank you, God!

Christmas is just in two weeks and that by itself seems crazy!  We have gotten our trees, lights, and a few presents ready, but we still have shopping, planning, and baking to do.  We have such a busy month all of the sudden and don't know where to fit everything in.  I am sure everything will turn out fine even if it doesn't go just as it's planned.

Since I don't have a whole lot to say, I will end here.  I kind of doubt that I will get back to post anything before Christmas, but who knows.  So, I wish you all a Merry Christmas and New Year.  And may you take the time to remember what/who Christmas is all about!  
 
 Merry Christmas!
