Enjoying the Christmas Season!

My daughter flew in for one night to attend her best friend's wedding. They have been friends since they were six years old. She is in charge of decorations so tomorrow around 3pm, she will pick up 10 small and 6 poinsettias from the flower shop. So far this Christmas season, I have had lunch with my hair stylist and my friend who lives in the group home. I have attended various church services. I sent out Christmas cards, shopped online, wrapped some gifts. I put up the outside Christmas lights and set up and decorated the Christmas tree. I also decorated the living room. After spending an hour setting up my winter village, enjoyed it for three seconds, then have the entire village in disarray due to a feline, I decided on an alternative plan. I set up various mementos from the various countries my family has visited--France, England, Spain, Germany, Italy, Costa Rica, Korea, Japan and Peru, and placed them about the room with a note "Merry Christmas" in the language. I placed a small vase in the flower shop with the handmade bookmarks made by my friend. I sold two of them today. The money will be used for her trip to Frankenmuth with the club.
