I made it. Stayed up until the stroke of midnight, knitting. I do it every year....but in the past it was a frantic race to Beat the Time (name that gameshow host from Sesame street....) to FINISH before the bells tolled for me. This year I CHOSE to stay up, to knit in the sweet silence of solitude. All my gifties were finished, amazingly enough, and so I was knitting something meditative (from Indulgence, of course!) and oh so sooothing.
Rang in the Christmas Day and off to dreamland. Kiddos slept in until almost NINE o'clock...what a gift in itself. Happiness and joy just to have them here with me...I couldn't possibly be PROUDER!
Blessings to you all, far and near......
Stay tuned, cuz Danger Girl is gearing up for the NEW YEAR!
Merry Christmas! I crashed early, having gorged myself on risotto and antipasto. The husband redeemed himself by doing all of the Christmas wrapping. I've got food in the oven, and wine on the table. Peace to you and yours. . .
