It’s almost Christmas Day, and there isn’t a great deal that’s new or interesting going on with me and the cats, so I will likely not publish anything on my blog until next week. I will, of course, still read others’. In the meantime, I would like to thank everyone for the good wishes they’ve extended to me and the beasts. In return, allow me to give this electronic version of my Christmas card, the outside and the inside of it.
As the Spirit of Christmas Present said, in my favourite movie, A Christmas Carol (1951), “We Spirits of Christmas do not live only one day of our year. We live the whole three hundred and sixty-five. So it is true of the Child born in Bethlehem. He does not live in men’s hearts one day of the year, but in all the days of the year.” It’s easier said by a Spirit than done by man, but I hope our coming year retains something of the seasonal spirit throughout.
Have a merry Christmas, everyone!
Merry Christmas to all of you!!

I love your card..
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas to you, John, Renn, Tucker, Josie and Cammie. We hope Christmas and the holidays give you more time to just enjoy being together at home and with friends. My Jessica went over the bridge a year ago Christmas Day so she will occupy my thoughts. But I am thankful that I have my Holly with me this year. Warm wishes, Eileen and Holly.
ReplyDeleteWhat a bittersweet time Christmas Day must be for you. I don't know how Jessica and Holly would have gotten along together, but I'm sure that Jessica is happy that you have such a good friend with you. Our friends may be succeeded by others but never replaced; each is unique and loved in her own way. The best of Christmas to you.
DeleteMerry Christmas to you dear John, Josie, Cammie, Renn and Tucker. Thinking warmly of you and yours and wishing you peace, love, happiness and a joyful holiday season.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Kari. I hope this Christmas is a happy and fun season in your home. May all of your family be safe and healthy - I don't need to wish that they all be loved; that's already taken care of.

Sorry I am so late, I hope you had a nice Christmas. I love A Christmas Carol too, the 1999 version with Patrick Stewart is my favorite.
