Ornament on my Tree

1. Nine precious shopping days remain until Christmas. Ten days until the after Christmas blow-out sales start meaning you get less value for your return than the person who bought it paid for it. Eleven days until the checkbook balance hits zero!

2. Nothing shows how much you care, like being there. This was one of the themes of the message in church on Sunday based upon Luke 2:10-12.

3. I dislike the Christmas song "I'll Be Home for Christmas." It is the most depressing Christmas song ever conceived.

4. I wonder what 2014 will bring?

5. Freaky football Sunday again. 

6. It was weird. I wasn't really in the Christmas spirit until I began singing some Christmas songs in church yesterday.

7. The world was changed because of a baby born in a barn.
