It's beginning to feel a lot like.....

Christmas time *is* the most wonderful time of the year! It's so very nice to see snow (uh.... well in the mountains) and think of Christmas, and drink hot chocolate, and listen to sweet music. Yesterday I was SO happy to see the most beautiful Christmas tree ever (thanks to Mallory) and it even smelled like a Christmas tree!! I can't wait to get home and see our train, and tree, and all the presents. I love love love it so much. Even on a dismal day like today, I'm sitting at work, there are no calls, life is so boring, at least I have Pandora and Frank Sinatra's Holiday channel to keep me company.

I had a marvelous experience just now so I thought I'd write about it. I was getting pretty bored, wasting all kinds of time browsing the internet absentmindedly.... I took out my head phones for a sec and walked around our little office space and then came back. As I put my earphones back in my overall happiness increased dramatically as I was welcomed by not only a holiday song, but a Christmas song, that's right a CHRISTmas song. I sat and listened to "What Child is This" and was filled with the spirit. I'm so thankful for the 'reason for the season' and despite not having snow, or a tree, or presents at my apartment right now, it's just as Christmas-y as ever. Merry Christmas everyone!!!
