One month until Christmas!!

There was a time in my life when the thought that Christmas was only one month away would have struck fear in my heart!

But no longer - Christmas has ceased to be a shopping, logistical nightmare. We pretty much do the same things, year after year, and practice may not make perfect, but it does make things easier.

Mostly I just look forward to seeing everyone and eating potato soup on Christmas Eve - and getting lots of Christmas cards.
