It snowing again. : )

Started the day walking 2 miles down in the basement singing Christmas carols along with Anne Murray.  : )

More snow today.

We went to Walmart again this morning and got a few things and also another mile and a half walking in.
When we got home Ken started up the snow blower and cleared off the driveway.  It certainly comes in handy around here.

I haven't done much today.  Read, and walked the rest of my 6 miles one mile at a time down the basement. : )  I did a little cross stitch too.

Oh by the way the basket of cookies yesterday was a big hit.  They all loved them and were really surprised.  When it was time to get our bill, Jessica, our server, said, "No charge."  When we tried to say that the cookies were a THANK YOU to all of you, she just smiled.

A happy Tuesday to you.
happyone : )

 “What is the spirit of Christmas, you ask?  

Let me give you the answer in a true story...
On a cold day in December, 

feeling especially warm in my heart 

for no other reason than it was the holiday season, 

I walked through the store sporting a big grin on my face.  

Though most people were far too busy 

going about their business to notice me, 

one elderly gentleman in a wheelchair 

brought his eyes up to meet mine 

as we neared each other traveling opposite directions.  

He slowed in passing just long enough to speak to me.
"Now that's a Christmas smile if I ever saw one," he said.
My lips stretched to their limit in response, 

and I thanked him for the compliment.  

Then we went our separate ways. 

But, as I thought about the man and how sweetly he'd touched me, 

I realized something simply wonderful!  

In that brief, passing interaction we'd exchanged heartfelt gifts!
And that, my friend, is the spirit of Christ~mas. ”
