Merry Christmas Everyone!

Merry Christmas Everyone!

I want everyone to know that I blog just about every day, but somehow only about once per month seem to get through lately...  It's a good thing that I'm so easy going or I'd be really upset with vox :)  That being said, and assuming this post makes it on my page, I wanted to wish everyone a Merry Christmas!  I'll tell you what, My Christmas spirit has been running on empty this year.  I can't really explain it and what's even stranger is that many people I've talked to have had the same feeling...  The last couple of days have been a bit better... Watching IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE while eating SCHNUGGETS*tm* with Steve and Janie helped.  Also our church's Christmas musical went really well and all of the preparation and Choir practices seemed worth it with the enjoyment that folks seemed to have from it.  Even though I enjoy singing, I had a solo part, which is nerve racking and even though a part of me looked forward to it, the nervousness and dread is always hanging overhead.  So, with that having past, and shopping done, there has been a little more of a Christmasy feeling felt.  *It might have even helped a little that the Redskins gave me the gift of playoff hope a couple of days early*  But overall, I'm looking forward to tomorrow... Christmas has a real meaning that can't be ignored whether I'm feeling the "Christmas Spirit" or not.  Couple that with having family over and enjoying giving things to folks you love and I think Christmas is going to be pretty special once again.  Here's to hoping that all of you have a very special day with your family and friends, and that this Christmas is one you'll always remember. -Gary
