Christmastime

Christmas is almost here! Merry Christmas everybody!
Our cat brings us much entertainment these days...outside of computer and old TV programs and videos / DVDs!
We've started listening to some old cassette tapes which is quite fun after not listening for years probably.
I think about not wanting to wear out the cassette players, but then I lose out on listening while I may!
My sister worked hard to get some medical info. sent, and after some mistakes on others parts they have finally been sent! Hooray! Please pray for wisdom of the doctor/surgeon on what to do with the information.
We give gifts for Christmas on Christmas Eve Day or evening, so Christmas is mostly just for thinking about Jesus' birth and eating yummy food. Actually, we will probably go ahead and have the Mexican food again this year as well. It's our nonconformist tradition for a number of years.
Our family also has a tradition of a Christmas project...giving to some mission agency for needy people. It can be for something like Spectrum ministries or Action International. We might have given through Compassion Intl. before too. Anyway, it is very low key for those who want to or are able to participate here in our household. It's fun to give for those who are really in need.
We don't usually spend a lot on each other either.
Well, other than listening to Christmas songs or singing or hearing the Christmas story, that's about all I can think of we might do for Christmas.
Hope yours is great!
