One Special Night

Good evening my dears, it has been a chilly day for Texans and I have enjoyed not just one, but two delightful Starbucks mochas... with peppermint.... a venti, but with only four pumps of the peppermint. I'm one of those needy customers, but I hope I make up for it by being a nice, politeful person.

And now I am nestling into the couch, just.... well, watching a movie. But I don't feel like talking about the movie I'm watching. I actually just feel like sharing a chapter of my own life with all you my darlings.

This time of year has always been hard for me... The holidays were never very enjoyable for me growing up, and they only morphed into somewhat stomach-able when I became an "adult." I always have tried to make the best of a situation, but it was harder at the holidays, and these last few years, (especially after having moved under the texan sun) I have finally made significant headway in finding contentment at this "festive" time of year.

I have stopped trying to look at it how it is "supposed" to be and just relaxing it and enjoying it as things come.  

I don't have much to say, but I just wanted to pop in and say hello and I have not forgotten about you my dears. I hope you have had an enjoyable season and I am wishing you all the love and beauty you can manage.

sincerely my loves,
