A Return To Blog-ness

My husband was not comfortable with me blogging last year and so I decided to take a year off. After reading my adult daughter's blog recently, as well as my boss' blog, I decided to make a comeback. For us middle-aged kids, it can be kind of scary to think about random folks looking at our happenings and honest thoughts. I think that is what bothers my husband. I get that. But since the word "Jesus" is in the title of my blog, I'm guessing I won't attract too many stalkers.

I am in the midst of a lovely Advent season. I have decided to make Advent a time of some sacrifice, just as Lent is. I have so many things to be grateful for, especially the gift of God's love and peace. I am giving up a little something each day (the hardest being my beloved martinis on occasion...Oh, Beefeaters, how I love thee!) and I am reading a meditation each day as well and trying to incorporate that into my daily thoughts. It is making my Advent a richer time.

So fellow awaiters of Christ's visit this Christmas, tell me your thoughts for this beautiful season.

Peace!
