I love the holiday season! It changes our everyday lives into a time for lists filled with to-do’s, spending, remembering loved ones, and mailboxes filled with something other than junk mail. What I especially like is the surge of human energy that surrounds us. It’s a temporary escape from reality before plunging into the real world of 2012 which could be much like 2011.
It’s also a time when there’s a lot of creativity in making others feel in a holiday mood. Here in Alameda, CA, although it’s a small town, Christmas Tree Lane is always popular and fun to walk up and down. My favorite is the parents trying to answer the endless questions the little ones have.

I was so impressed with the following creative Christmas lights display found on UTube, in case you haven’t seen this.
From what I understand, the creator of this display is a computer genius as well as a fabulous designer. Open the link and see if you agree:
Then there’s the husband who is in a hurry to play golf and is definitely not a designer (yes, honey..I did hang the lights)…
One of the highlights of this season is the shopping trip with my grandsons (twins 14 and their little brother 10). While shopping for their dad, they really thought I should have this piece of furniture. (It’s bigger than my living room).
Whatever you’re doing, wherever you are, I hope you will savor each moment of the rest of the year and that the coming year will filled with joy, love and abundance.
With love and good wishes,
Dolores
