Roxy Fluffernutter and Timmy

Christmas past–Our dear Hamish (we miss him very much)

And introducing our newest bundle of joy, Roxy Fluffernutter. (#Roxyfluffernutter on #Instagram) She has been entertain us these last few weeks! Wondering if we dare put up a tree; I am recovering from thumb surgery and do most of the decorating, and she is ‘curious’ 😉

***Happy birthday, hunny.***

Welcome to December! We’ve ALMOST made it through 2016 and I know it’s been a tough year!

“There are those who give with joy, and that joy is their reward.”  Khalil Gibran

Definitely words to hold close these next few frantic weeks! (please forgive the inevitable hiccups as I get this back to a daily format — it’s like learning to ride a bike again..bit wobbly at the outset but I’ll get there)

Santa was kicked to the curb!

I am not a fan of the mad rush up to the 25th, with a full screeching stop for one day, and then the determination to denude the house of any sign that Christmas happened before the next trash pick-up.

I celebrate the 12 days of Christmas AFTER Christmas, as is traditional, and not how retailers have decided it was meant to be BEFORE Christmas.

So, as long as all Christmas is packed and away by Valentines Day, I feel I am doing good! The tree stays up till the Epiphany. And it is usually far longer before it gets taken down, to be honest! I want to enjoy the holiday season, not rush to the next big thing…

I hope that Santa was good to you!
