Seriously; nothing really exciting happened. Ok, untrue. We went out to eat Friday night at Cracker Barrel – because they have a huge cozy warm fire – then looked at Christmas lights. Admittedly, it was a little disappointing. We went through a neighborhood putting on a Christmas pageant and half the houses had no lights. Come on now! On Saturday, our new bed got delivered. We finally got a king size! They delivered it pretty early so we had to get up and move things over a bit in the bedroom. It forced me to clean up a little so now our rooms looks a lot nicer. We still need to paint and put down new carpet but for now, it looks like an adult room. ๐
I was in a not so pleasant mood all weekend which is bad for the kids but good for my cleaning so the house looks pretty good. I did wrap presents each night so that made me happy. I think I am pretty much done with my shopping and that brings me a great deal of joy. I can sit back, relax, and tend to other things in my life.

This week, I wanted to focus on some songs I have always loved. I remember being about seven or eight when I found a cassette tape of classic Christmas songs in my parents’ collection. I took it from the living room shelf and played it in my little boombox every night at bedtime. Here are a few that I loved from it.
There was a version of this song on there too; I love traditional hymns.
Great music
Absolutely wonderful. It’s almost like going to an opera. What talented voices. Thanks for sharing.
Traditional Christmas music is usually my norm, but this season I’ve strayed more to the contemporary side. It’s really hard to go wrong with Christmas music no matter what the style, unless it’s rap. We have yet to drive through the neighborhood to soak up the ambiance. Maybe, this weekend we can do that. Thanks for dancing with the 4M crew. May your spirit be light with the approach of Christmas…it’ll soon be here! Have yourself the merriest Christmas yet!
I am enjoying the Christmas holiday and all the wonderful music everyone is sharing. Thank you for letting me visit this holiday.
I do the same thing you do – clean when I’m not in a great mood. It’s therapeutic. ๐ Yay for a king sized bed! With this new house we finally have a bedroom big enough to accommodate one, so I’m now in heaven. You know, further away from the snoring. ๐
Love you choices – very cool classic Christmas music. Thanks for the dance! ๐
