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!

Well I'm glad for any opportunity to tap into more of your wisdom, my dear. :) Welcome back!
I have found, this year, that despite being overwhelmed in many aspects of my life, I'm enjoying a peace due to (a) silence (I turned off my iPod) and (b) having the shopping mostly DONE before Advent started.
And now I must go get more coffee. :)
Mimsy's back! Hooray!
I look forward to reading all of your wonderful ponderings.
