We are getting so close to Christmas. Only a week to go. I love this time of the year, but time is getting short. As a result of the time of the year we are very busy at work. I hope that this slows down, but it may remain this way. My days pass quickly. The weather here is anything but that what we like to feel at Christmas. Today looks like it will be cloudy and 4C. The snow that we got last week is all melted. Everything is green. It was overcast and foggy yesterday. I get alot of use out of my happy lamp on such days.

This is the busiest Christmas we ever had, but I will do my best to celebrate and rest for a while with my husband.

Yes, I am sure that it is as busy as the year that you wed. I pray that next year you will both be able to sit back and remember how busy you were this year.

The temperatures here have been like a roller coaster lately. Highs and lows and it's a guess what to wear when you get up in the mornings. My daughter is busy at work too and I guess it's that way for most companies as the holidays rapidly approach and the end of the year as well.

Yes, here also, just up and down. Often there is a damp bite to the air.

@Juliaacv can't help but wonder if we're going to get hit with a snowy Jan & Feb

@Marilynda1225 I know, but hopefully just one forecast at a time, we will get through this season without too much of the nasty. Snow is much easier than ice to deal with. I hope that this weekend will be dry as so many are preparing or celebrating the holiday itself.

Thanks, I have a load of lights in the washing machine, am about to log into my work computer, and will switch the laundry on my break in a while. Enjoy your day today.

@Juliaacv I have been using it all year as our family room doesn't get morning or afternoon sun.

A happy lamp is one that simulates natural sunlight. It is a good pick me upper.

I love my happy lamp! It does help! At least I can function now after using it for a couple of weeks. I hope you get a little slow down at work too!

What did we ever do before those happy lamps? They are game savers here. I hope that today and tomorrow remain busy at work so that they fly by quickly. Aren't I fickle?

Yes, I am used to juggling the housework. I hope that the weather cools down so that we have a cold Christmas, maybe not snowy, but if it freezes it will feel more like Christmas.

If I can stop the time, I will. Christmas Eve is fast approaching and life is getting busier and busier.

It's good that the days pass quickly. Christmas seems to be rushing headlong at us.

Before you know it Christmas will be here and gone - leaving the not so thrifty with empty pockets.

December is always so enriching, full-of-life and begins on an enthusiastic note. I want to be in December mood throughout the year!
