It's been quite a while since I've felt truly "Christmas-y" and I think this year may be even less than most...but, I too am going to try & follow your suggestion.

However, this particular post really reached out to me. It's been a difficult year for my family in more ways than one, I have not, as your friend stated "been feeling very Christmas-y" this year either. But, after reading your post I am going to take your great suggestion of listing a few things to do and run with it! My heart feels lighter already. Merry Christmas to you & yours!

They certainly were on another path and they were displaced and refugees the first few years of Jesus life. So all of us who feel a bit unsettled or on another path during Christmas perhaps that is the tradition. I loved Alex's setting of the manger it brought me a smile.Maureenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18010767083006504337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37220856.post-60615107791267469762011-12-18T00:08:01.677-05:002011-12-18T00:08:01.677-05:00Thankyou so much for this, makes me think a little...Thankyou so much for this, makes me think a little. I think we are so primed to have the Norman Rockwell Christmas that we don't stop to realize that Gods will will be done no matter how we feel.

Thank you for sharing this for our "mutual" friend. He's singing a beautiful song tomorrow with another "mutual" friend (V)!! I'm glad he's able to share through song even though he's not feeling very Christmas-y. Take care, and have a blessed Christmas.

I just cleaned the kitchen of all the remnants of cooking and now I'm going to do some doll sculpting. Then I'm going to put a cloth over cover on one of my sculpts. :-)<br /><br />DixieDixie Redmondhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18290571323764327616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37220856.post-6425284709245263522011-12-17T09:13:42.500-05:002011-12-17T09:13:42.500-05:00My daughter is the tradition-bound one of our fami...My daughter is the tradition-bound one of our family--she insists on doing certain things every years, no matter what. Some of her traditions (which movie we watch on Christmas Eve, for example) have stuck with us, so even with all our family far away, we have a Christmas-y feeling. <br /><br />Hope your friend has a joyful Christmas in his own way...JDConwellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17610411044128692258noreply@blogger.com
