December 20 A cup of peppermint teaOh my goodness! December is soooo getting away from me! the regularly timed extra christmas chores, a few poorly timed germs and long distance family medical chrisis and here we are. I am certainly keeping to the holiday tradition of being behind schedule.
Christmas will be extended this year as at least one sibling is bringing his family the day after Christmas to spend a few days. My sister is contemplating roads and weather and may also come. we are crossing our fingers that they will all be here, but I am also gearing up for a longer stretch of holiday. No sitting on the couch the day after Christmas and being lazy!
I am so glad that I still have friends popping in here and I look forward to sitting down at my blog table with mugs of hot tea and coffee when the holidays are over and the gray days of winter linger. I miss writing to you all, and all of your lovely comings and goings.
Last night at the end of a busy day I watched the St Olaf University choirs sing for Christmas on PBS. For me Christmas must include a university style choir. (or a big Presbyterian type choir) Somehow the well sung, harmony and voice rich renditions of the music stir my soul in a way other music doesn't. Surround sound was cranked up last night and the last song, a part of the hymn, "Fairest Lord Jesus" ...was just stunning. I just needed that last night. Music that touched my spirit. It was nourishing.
I hope that you all find spiritual nourishment that only our Fairest Lord Jesus, can give, as you bustle through your holiday activities.
When the holidays are over and you're resting and looking for a cup of tea, pop in and share what nourished you this season.
The Lord richly bless you all.
