Plus, Christmas Morning it is all still New and Exciting!!! Remember: the Christmas Season doesn't END with Christmas Day, it lasts at least until Epiphany....Years ago, it wasn't over until the Feast of the Baptism of Jesus on February 2nd!<BR/>So Celebrate, by golly, even if we are more tired than we have ever been in our fantasies!<BR/>Pax Christi!Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07505258364895249347noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3271931822987740572.post-52300092921105287272008-12-08T21:28:00.000-08:002008-12-08T21:28:00.000-08:00YES - I am more tired in my real life than I ever ...YES - I am more tired in my real life than I ever was in my fantacies too!<BR/><BR/>Hope you are doing well, J - sorry I've been so absent - I've missed you.
