Walking is the perfect way of moving if you want to see into the life of things. It is the one way of freedom. If you go to a place on anything but your own feet you are taken there too fast, and miss a thousand delicate joys that were waiting for you by the wayside. Elizabeth von Arnim

This years red ornament

 When I got up it was above freezing and raining,
making a real mess out of the snow.
Decided it was too messy to walk outside so got my miles in
down in the basement.

It has rained on and off all day but we still have some
snow around.  It is supposed to get cold again tonight 
and snow into tomorrow.  
So looks like we'll have a white Christmas.

Not much to blog about today.
Just at home keeping busy.

Here is this year's painted red ornament.
It is number 48.


Happy Christmas Eve!!

It's Christmas Eve.
Its the one night of the year when we all act a litter nicer,
we smile a little easier,
we cheer a little more.
For a couple of hours out of the whole year,
we are the people that we always hoped we would be.
- Bill Murray -

I thought this was a sad quote and thought that sure doesn't
have to be true.  Here's to being kind and nice every day. 😃

I agree with you, Karen. We don't have to wait until Christmas Eve to be kind. :-) I love the red balls and Ken chose well the most memorable part of this year. I doubt that any of us will ever forget 2020. You and Ken have a truly Merry Christmas. God bless you.

Have a blessed Christmas Day. We are in for rain, flooding, and temps in the 50s. We are already being warned that there will be power outages. I am praying that no one loses power as the state just got over that just a few weeks ago. That really is a pitiful comment. Oops. That wasn't so kind.☺️
