There are lots of loose ends to wrap up before the holidays, literally- all of my wrapping, making treats, caroling, and the traditional to do list. But for some reason I can hardly get myself to move. Most of the things on my lists seem so insignificant. Besides the national tragedy, two dear elderly friends passed away and we have been arranging food and funeral luncheons, a dr. visit evoked all sorts of mixed emotions as my body is preparing to deliver this baby, and most recently a family who we knew from the Spanish branch had their home burn down over the night. My heart has been heavy.
Thankfully we have a vacant house that the family is going to be moving in to so there is plenty to be done. Somehow, my helping hands are one of the best ways for me to cope. I am grateful that I can scrap my holiday to do lists and focus on those things that really matter.
