The stockings aren’t hung at the chimney with care yet, but there is a fireplace here so we might get around to that.<\/p>\n
This is sort of a pause day. There are things to do and rituals to perform later but right now we are taking a deep breath in anticipation of tomorrow. Peter is working on his Fantastic Four novel that he wants to get to the editor before the New Year. Ariel is reading Dracula<\/I> for the first time. Caroline is bouncing around playing with various toys that she can only find at her grandparent’s house. I am taking that deep breath and savoring the pause. I have been so busy with so many things for a while now that I have been forgetting to stop and take a breath occasionally.<\/p>\n
I want to thank each and every one of you who stop by here and read this web log. I want you to know that I appreciate you the reader. I appreciate everyone who comments either on the websites or by e-mail to me. It is a gift that you give me and I want you to know that I don’t take if for granted.<\/p>\n
AMerry Christmas to all those who celebrate it. May the peace and joy of the season last you through the next year.<\/p>\n
