Busy. Good busy. But so busy.
We’ve been buying presents, reorganizing the apartment, running errands, walking back and forth to school, wearing coats and hats, decorating the tree, and making cookies. I don’t think I’ve enjoyed a holiday season this much in a long time, and that probably has something to do with us all being at home this year. No traveling. No being apart. No rushing. No crazy schedules.
It could also have something to do with living in New York, where the smell of chestnuts is on every street corner. I think this city rivals the North Pole as the center of the Christmas universe.
I’m thankful for the best December in years.
I’m also thankful to be busy writing some online posts for my favorite hometown website. Oh my goodness how I’ve missed deadlines and work. It feels really good and productive. You can check them out here, here, here, here, and here.
Told you I was busy.
I hope you’ll take the time to check out the website in general, as there are some really great ways to donate or help good Arkansas based organizations over the holiday season.
In the mean time, happy Christmas you guys!
So glad that you have your work ( which you do so very well ), your family and your Christmas Spirit. My husband just mentioned yesterday that he misses the charter bus trips we used to take to NYC at Christmas time. Merry Christmas to you, Jane and Dates๐๐
