Now that’s a Christmas Tree 🎄 😃
“Some people have told me that Christmas just is not the same as when they grew up. You think the spirit of Christmas has died a slow death? No, never! It is only your perceived expectations. You should keep Christmas safe for the next generation and the next. It's not about the gifts, but, the spirit of Christmas. It is affordable.“
⬆️ I have been guilty of saying that kinda thing about it not being the same. I agree with you though! The Christmas Spirit is certainly alive 🙌. Unfortunately this year was off because literally half my family got Covid last week. Most just feel like they have a cold so that’s a blessing this new strain looks mild. That said it messed up all the plans so me and Ashlee (my mysterious Texas Lady ) stopped by my moms for Christmas Eve and again next day but my sister who hosts these holiday events is sick in bed along with all but one of my mothers siblings. Just crazy timing like everyone at once. Vaccinated or not like more family and friends have it this week then I knew of all year in terms of people I know really well. Just one of those odd things. That said we had a good day and after the visit to moms spent it solo watching twilight zone , It’s a Wonderful Life and finished off with Coming To America. Oh and eating Ashlees Taco’s (her moms recipe and so good!) Will be making plans to see my sisters family among others who are sick for the second or so weekend in Jan. Was just a lol weird not seeing everyone but it made my mom so happy we came by for dinner Christmas Eve and stopped by Christmas morning. She went to a church friends home in afternoon. I definitely felt the Christmas spirit and it is alive indeed. Just bummed so many are sick at once but obviously just happy most are not really really sick needing emergency care. That is a blessing indeed. My best friends wife has asthma and is probably worst case outta the bunch so say a prayer for her 🙏. She’s not go to hospital level but it’s really uncomfortable and her chest and breathing effected. She’ll be ok but it’s effecting her more then the rest.
You are amazing @Dswigle 🙏 and I’m blessed to know ya!
