It Was A Good Christmas

Had another good Christmas this year. I’m thankful both my parents are still alive and healthy. I worry that they won’t be around someday and then Christmas will be sad. But for now it’s still happy and we have a really good time. Our family is small, it’s just me and my husband, my sister and her son, and my Mom and Dad. But my Mom always makes a delicious dinner and we have rice pudding and the one who finds the almond wins a prize… and then we do gifts and sit around the Christmas tree.

I don’t really believe in any particular religion, though I think anything is possible, so I don’t really celebrate Christmas because of the religious aspect that most Christians do (but not all?). I celebrate a good happy time to spend with family and enjoy the season. Love each other and be together and chat.

The gift thing isn’t my favorite. It’s work to go out and buy things, and then I never know what to get. And stopping at the cigar store isn’t as fun as it used to be. The gift thing is the least fun part… well, opening them and laughing while doing so is fun. Maybe I need to focus on that part more than dwelling on the worry of the actual shopping. Maybe I’ll have to remember that for next year.

I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas.
