Despite the wars, unrest and turmoil abroad and within, I wish I had the power to demand Peace.
A tiny tree, bare of leaves, but made beautiful in the Spirit of the Season.
I want to give the gift of Hope and to show that Joy does exist, even in the simplest of things.
This was a bare corner of a large building and some one there, who is very creative, made a “statement” using the empty planters, pots and plants who were comin g to a “resting” stage. . .
The gem and stone store showed its Holiday spirits by using gems as the window display. . . .
My favorite store, Gardenworks, never disappoints in seasonal displays.
So many enjoyable, unexpected, simple moments– and there for anyone to appreciate. I count my blessings every day that I have these moments. BUT I wish I could command that wars stop so others can hear and savor peace–not bombs and destruction

A VERY MERRY CHRISTMAS, EVERYONE. TAKE CARE OF YOURSELVES AND TAKE CARE OF EACH OTHER. MAY THE LOVE AND JOY OF THE HOLIDAY SEASON TAKE YOUR FOOTSTEPS TO FABULOUS ADVENTURES AND FUN TIMES IN 2024!
