I’m in blogging withdraw! My computer that has been dying a slow and painful death for some time has finally breathed its last. I’ve been computer shopping, which for me is like trying to buy a car.
In the meantime, the wireless connection I can occasionally get at home has been very weak. I no sooner get online and it dies out. Thus, I haven’t been blogging.
So, a very merry yet late Christmas to everyone!
I went to the Christmas Eve candle light service at my church and it was so beautiful. They turn off the lights at the end and just have the spotlight on the alter, the soloist and the Christmas tree. I wish they had left it that way throughout the service because it was so beautiful, even before the candles were lit.
I sat behind a family that seemed to have a number of young cousins visiting and they were all having a ball playing the pews, crawling under the pews, peeking over the pew at me. And I was horrible because I only encouraged them, they were so cute. I looked at their drawings and played picky boo with them. If only it weren’t incredibly inappropriate to take a picture of them during the service! It would make a neat painting with all the adults so serious and sitting up straight, and the kids just trying to survive through the service without getting in too much trouble.
I spent Christmas by myself. Before everyone has a fit, let me just say that to me, this was not a big deal. If anything, it was a blessing because I get so little time off.
I had an offer to go to Wichita, and then thought that perhaps my Dad and Ryan would fly in instead. They had mechanical problems, however, and were unable to fly dad’s plane. Everyone was so worried about me being alone – but I blissfully enjoyed some guilt-free sleeping, reading, listening to music etc. It was heavenly to me.
Hopefully the computer issue will be solved soon. I can’t tell you how I miss being online and being able to communicate with everyone.
