Old Age Day by Day December 5, 2010

Well, our holiday party invites are out and the online shopping done. It's beginning to feel a lot like Christmas. Especially since the weather is about as Christmasy as it gets. It's only fit to go out for movies. I've got to find one I want to see today. And they didn't have the sweater in my size I wanted online, so my husband and I will have to look in an actual store. Luckily, it's a little store and nearby, so if I find something, he's taken care of me for Christmas.

What I love to do is make gifts, so I have a picture of a bird mobile I'm going to attempt to replicate, and need to go to a fabric store tomorrow. And if I finish the quilt tablecloths I began last summer, that will be some homemade stuff. I also have been knitting in a frenzy whenever I watch a DVD, and it's adding up. Nobody needs these things I make, but it feels like one of the truer parts of the holiday for me.

But my party is the heart of the matter, because I get to feed my friends and see them and wish them well. I like the connections that occur over the season.
