Well....I was ahead of the game this year for Christmas...then I got hit with the flu...since we as a family, open gifts and have our traditional Mexican dinner, tamales, etc. on Christmas Eve, I was able to enjoy all that. Then Christmas morning, my daughter and I were both not feeling well. My wonderful husband took over, prepared the prime-rib and made all the wonderful side dishes. Though I wasn't feeling that well, I was able to enjoy a beautiful Christmas with my family. Today, I am finally back to my normal self.....don't know what normal is though!!! I have been a cleaning machine, though with two of us not feeling well, there wasn't much to mess up, and my husband kept on top of everything. Planning our New Years Eve...thinking about going shopping, if you can believe that...one would think I was shopped out, but NO, not me! My daughter's birthday is in March, so I have to begin now! It just feels so good to feel good again!! The picture above is one of my favorite gifts this year and it was from my husband. For many years now, I have collected Waterford Crystal, this is now my favorite piece. It is much larger in person, probably about 12" tall, it's just the angle for which I was standing when I took the picture.
I hope everyone had a wonderful loving CHRISTmas....
