'Tis the Season

'Tis the season...
  • for shopping
  • for wrapping
  • for baking
  • (and eating!)
  • for family
  • for helping
  • for giving
  • for barely controlled chaos and fun!
I don't know how much I'll be visiting the bloggy-verse in the next few weeks, so I thought I'd take this time to wish you all the very best of the season - no matter what celebrations you enjoy.

I hope you're surrounded by love, hope and possibilities. Enjoy the moments & I'll see you in a few weeks!

    Merry Christmas to you, Jemi! After Wednesday's post, I'm taking a couple weeks off as well. The Ninja will be lurking though...

    Hey Jemi,

    My human, Gary, the guy I so kindly allow to live with me, has asked me to say, "Merry Christmas, eh!"

    Enjoy this festive season and may we all think of those less fortunate who could use some words of comfort. Peace and pawsitivity to you, Penny the Jack Russell dog and modest internet star! :)
