1 Day to Christmas
Happy Christmas Eve!
Actually, Christmas is already here for us. We celebrate this evening, so I won’t linger long. The presents are wrapped, and we will have our little gift opening ceremony later on. Nothing grand, nothing excessive.
I’ve been up since 6am, making the house festive – lighting candles, listening to gentle jazz, easing us into the day. Even cleared the ironing! I made some really tasty sausage rolls for lunch, and I’m pleased to report they were a hit. But I haven’t left the house – and I like that.
Grace came downstairs, looked around, and said, “I love your home, Mum. It has such a lovely feel. Great energy. Everywhere you look there are beautiful pieces of artwork and pockets of calm”
That meant more to me than she probably realises.
When the world feels like it’s whizzing around and everything seems a bit bonkers, it’s vital to have a safe place. A haven.
A calm in the storm.
Wishing you a peaceful, love-filled celebration – wherever you are. If you have time tomorrow, do join me for a cuppa and a mince pie in the SHAC at 10am. We’ll have a virtual group hug and a little chat. Sound like a plan?
Love and Clarity always.

Beautiful!
Our new house is still very much a work in progress at the moment with boxes everywhere to be unpacked/sorted but it is lovely and we are very happy to be here.
All my craft stash is in my craft room but actually not accessible so that will have to wait for a while!
Planning to get up and watch the sunrise tomorrow morning! 🌅
I hope you have a very happy Christmas with all your family and wish you a peaceful and blessed new year xxxx
Frohe Weihnachten und einen guten Rutsch ins neue Jahr.

Merry Christmas Barb to you and Dave, your Mum, Grace and Mark, Steve and Sheila, and all of your family. Enjoy your Christmas Eve family gathering!
Hopefully I’ll be there for the start of the SHAC in the morning, then we’re off to our daughter’s house for our Christmas family gathering! 😊
Merry Christmas one and all, throughout the wonderful Clarity Community 😊🎅

Grandson and his girlfriend called in this afternoon and couldn’t believe how many cards we had ! He said something along the lines of he thought people would be scared to send me cards because of the ones I made and did I get any hand made ones, I said I got the exchange ones and my friend I grew up with makes one so I showed him those – impressed he was !
