today is christmas with dads side of the family. everyone is coming here. well everyone that can come. but still it will be good fun. it's our first hosting of a family christmas. round two will be on monday. hence the big clean up yesterday.
the gardens are looking quite respectable. although these gardens are a bit of work - we didn't inherit them in the best state. so i'm slowly making my way around. yesterday i bandaid solutioned, which meant using the whipper snipper. i know that will bite me in the bum later, but presently i don't really care.
christmas comes around faster and faster these years. and in amongst it all, i must keep remembering why it is that we celebrate this day anyway. it's a good thing Jesus came to this earth, coz i need him. and sometimes i forget that in the day to day.
oh and i love that at christmas, we get to sing, or hear be sung, "O holy night". tis a beautiful song.
