Christmas, eating and good old fun....






Christmas came and went, but i still hear people wishing each other merry christmas. i also learned from a sermon that we do not use the word merry x mas, as it is actually cutting christ out! The season greeting and merry x mas was from someone who did not exactly like christmas, but no christ, no christmas.

Christmas eve for me was last minute of additional presents and got home and revamped my gingerbread house. This was the third time it was on "display", this time the flags were changed to 12 names of people who would be the new house owners. I discovered that a bird's eye view was definitely than the normal shots i took. I left or passed the house to my niece, Ashley and perhaps for her to view as a doll house.

Last sunday, hosted get together for my hospis friends and the roast and chocolate fondue was fun. By my standards the roast was so so and the green pea soup a little bland. In any case it was nice for friends to just meet up and chat. This thursday on new year's day, am having pastor and rachel and then dr Jega over with sandra..

Ok, still yet to learn how to make photos larger. As i write, i just received call from Princess that she was taking Happy to the vet as he has been coughing and sneezing. God please let him be ok and just need rest.......like me. It is rare i sleep 8 hours, i normally do 6 but guess must be tired......... i take rest now.

December's here.........




It's the 18th already, and by my standards....two biggie events gone thru..phew. And nope i am not blaming anyone but myself....for wanting to do everything, well not everything but just wanting to do stuff that people did not ask.

First there is the ginger bread house, which Praise God did not crumble. Took me about a week, starting with the fencing and "planting of the trees". It was nice and fun, but i got carried away and wanted to do cookies to bless people and cake etc etc etc. The packing was one thing......It was fun and yes, i am pleased that many were thrilled and took their cameras out. It was nice to place about 14 to 15 flags of my fellow church members and a major flag of our church as the centre point. Was glad i could place the twinkling lights around the house..

Am tired and perhaps could just post photos and write the next day... Just to share the photos but i do wonder how to deal with it..i mean pasting photos as not all come out... Let's see what others i can, some pretty pictures i hope//
