Merry Christmas everyone! May the blessings of the Lord be onto you, and may you remember the gift of His sacrifice. For those who do not celebrate Christmas, happy holidays and happy shopping!
Christmas this year was to be celebrated at our place but has been cancelled due to Covid. The person who has Covid still has symptoms like coughing, tiredness but is otherwise doing well. There is no shortness of breath or anything serious. Another person felt they could not make it so we decided to postpone Christmas until the new year.
Luckily although all the planning had been done for the meal, the shopping for food has not so that has saved me from having a fridge full of composting food while we we are away at the peninsula for the holidays.
Instead of moping around, we have decided to make the best of the situation. I will cook a smaller Christmas feast and deliver it on Christmas Eve to the person with Covid so they don't miss out simply because of Covid. We will then have Christmas day free to go to church, have a leisurely brunch, go to the beach and explore another part of town new to us.
I am reminded of some of the things we can do during the holidays even though we may not celebrate. One of my friends volunteer at a soup kitchen on Christmas Day, another will spend it at home knitting with their online knit group with members from across the world. Yet another has gone on an overseas holiday.
Which ever way you spend this season, may you be safe and happy always. Signing off for 2022...
