Nice to find the peace at the end of a tiring day and season. Thanks again.
ReplyDeleteAll those lists sound exhausting!!!
ReplyDeleteGreetings of the season! Cheers!
A bit of peace and goodwill would be needed after all that, lol! Same to you, Rall.
ReplyDeleteHolidays definitely bring hustle and bustle. Good that home is always a place of peace. Wishing you a Merry Christmas too!
ReplyDeleteYeah...at last that bit of peace...Merry Christmas Rall.
ReplyDeleteYes peace at last and the best peace at Chritmas cam always be found at Christmas especially by making others smile - as you did here...
ReplyDeleteHappy holidays to you. I remember this holiday bustle in the city. Here in the village, there is just a festive feeling - no malls, no where to shop. I love it.
ReplyDeleteI can relate to your poem, so much going on to prepare for the holiday. Peace and Merry Christmas to you as well!

much love...
haha...all true. Now, why do I love it so much?!
ReplyDelete(As my poem reveals, I AM trying very hard to simplify.)
Great job on this! Made me smile.
I sure do love those quiet moments when I can shut out the commercial spirit of Christmas.
ReplyDeleteHave a very Merry Christmas.
What happy slaves we are to the god of consumerism. What a blessed day is Christmas Day and the short rest before the sales!
