huzzah and hip, hip, hooray!!

I'm not quite there yet but the end is in sight.  I have finished my Christmas shopping (not wrapping, just shopping) and my Christmas cards are finished, notes written, addressed, stamped and ready to drop in the mail tomorrow.  Now you may be thinking "big whoop"  all of these things should be finished.  It is, after all, only four days 'til Christmas, but considering some of my Christmases past when I was still wrapping gifts on Christmas Eve - after the midnight church service - and my Christmas cards mysteriously morphed into new year's greetings I'm feeling like a winner!
