Merry Christmas (part 2). Have a brilliant day, whatever you’re up to.
It's been an unusual and pretty bad year for most of us. I know I 'preach' it every year, so I won't harp on as usual, but remember that however bad it has been, there are always people a lot worse off that have been hit harder. Please take time to spare a thought for them, and as usual the homeless and the less well off.
Have a great chilled out time.
Very best wishes to all.
Stay Safe, Stay Well, Stay Sane(ish).

Snow falls in heavy flakes, cloaking the world in a silent white mantle. The crackling of the fire in the fireplace accompanies a muffled atmosphere, almost suspended in time. An intense scent of spices and burnt wood intoxicates the air, creating an aura of magic.
In this enchanted setting, the senses are heightened. Touch feels the softness of wool, the warmth of the fireplace, the coolness of snow. The sense of smell is intoxicated by the sweet scents of freshly baked cookies and scented candles. Hearing captures the crackling of the fire, the ticking of the clock and the muffled silence of the night. Sight is enraptured by the dance of the flames, the twinkling reflections of the lights on the Christmas tree, and the stars twinkling in the winter sky.
Christmas is a daydream, a moment suspended between reality and fantasy. It is an opportunity to find oneself, to appreciate the beauty of small things, to rediscover the value of love and sharing.
At this time of year, hearts open to love and hope. Differences fade, making way for unity and solidarity. It is a time to hold loved ones close, to share a smile, to exchange a hug.
Christmas is an invitation to look beyond appearances, to seek light even in the darkest moments. It is a call to our humanity, to our capacity to love and be loved. Especially at a time in history (for humanity) as dark as it is now.
Under a sky of stars, today (and not only today) I want to let the magic of Christmas envelop me. I thank all those who follow me with affection, whom I feel close with every sentence, word, gesture. You are the force that drives me to always create something, trying to do better and better. I wish You all and Your Families a peaceful and light-filled Christmas and a New Year full of hope and joy.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all of you!♥

How is this for a blooming Christmas Cactus in my music room? ....I can't ever remember seeing so many blossoms on it.
This sterling silver snowflake is 45 mm across and was a bonus with the jewelry I purchased from Maui Divers for my wife's Christmas present.

Normally well hidden at the back of the tree, but this year somebody managed to get the little bird a place in the front row. Nag, nag, nag! Every year the same game. Sometimes you win, sometimes you lose. ; )

"The earth has grown old with its burden of care
But at Christmas it always is young,
The heart of the jewel burns lustrous and fair
And its soul full of music breaks the air,
When the song of angels is sung."
~ Phillips Brooks (1835-93),
American Episcopal bishop,
wrote 'O Little Town of Bethlehem'.
Locust Valley is one of my favorite little hamlets in my area – mostly for its preserved natural beauty and Europe-esque houses, but also for its holiday spirit. Train 551, led by a boxy-looking cab car, sounds off for Birch Hill Road and rolls past the abandoned LOCUST Tower – which is decked out in Christmas splendor.

My annual trip to Birmingham for the Outskirts Christmas party seems to get longer! This year I arrived the night before and met up with my friends Linda and Helen and had a lovely evening looking around the Christmas Market followed by a great, fun night in a bar!
Doesn't this Christmas tree look amazing?
