It was TORN - dang!! Plus dumb musings

taken this morning - it would have been great but the flag is torn....

Trying to send out Christmas cards. It seems as if Christmas is all ready over. We all have our presents. My sons got theirs early because of what they needed. Same with my mom she has hers and she has given me mine. I have mine from the man and the youngest son because I picked out what I wanted/needed. As with last year I plan to head out to the west desert early Christmas morning. Hopefully I can get some great pictures again. ****The mountain snow is pink with the setting sun - Monday is getting closer. Good thing we can not procrastinate with the seconds-minutes- hours etc of life. We might have a perpetual weekend. ****I was amazed at the lack of vehicles out and about today. Made me miss the days when this town was small... I am a small town gal. ****Not much to say - I was going to talk about how Christmas feels this year but.... why? We miss those who are not with us. A feeling that is as old as time. Holidays just reinforce the fact that there are those that we love who are not here. Fact of life for every person at sometime or another.

If we remember...

... the message of Christmas. We are never alone. Not when the night is darkest, the wind coldest, the word seemingly most indifferent. For this is still the time God chooses."

Christmas - because of a birth we have hope.

Must get to preparing for the week.

Until the next time I try to put my wandering thoughts down.....
