Hello there,
The innkeeper is back from the holiday. I hope you had a terrific Christmas Sunday with family and friends. My sons and I celebrated the day for ten plus hours. We wrapped up the night seeing the new "Mission Impossible" movie.
Remembering to take deep breaths when the holidays roll around is something I need to do. Yesterday there was house cleaning--before and after all the festivities, a Christmas dinner to prepare (with plenty of dishes to wash afterwards) and a home to spruce up for the day. On top of that, I played the guitar, sang with my sons Christmas carols and we read Christmas stories as a family.
Over the weekend, I wrote two Christmas stories to share with you, who visit this inn. Did you get a chance to read them? Here's one. and here's the other. The second is about the influence one person can have.
"Tired" inadequately defines how I felt today. But that doesn't mean I'm not happy. I am. Christmas seems like yesterday, even though technically it's early Tuesday morning.
Thanks for dropping by over the weekend, we had more than 1,600 visitors. Some of you may not know this blog is just a baby. It's only been around 9 months.
1. I took a nap this evening. Good for me. I responded to my body's needs when I'm in H.A.L.T.
2. I'm thankful for preparing the Christmas meal in advance, on Friday. It made Sunday more bearable. I enjoyed the fruits of exercising discipline and order.
3. I thankful for this inn. There are more than 2,000 gratitudes I've expressed here. Research shows that those who are optimistic and grateful live longer, are happier and have better health, in addition it reduces the likelihood of dementia. I'm all for that!
As I mention in the description of the blog above, underneath my header, I ask if the visitors of this inn can share three things for which they are grateful. What are yours? I've shared mine. Your gratitudes would meet my need for mutuality and community.
