Trying to stay calm amidst the hoopla


It's Dec. 17 ~ and I'm feeling overwhelmed. I've only decorated a tiny bit, haven't shopped, and I feel like the days are flying, which they are!


Speaking of flying, I'm posting some vintage artwork of sweet angels to help us focus on the quiet peacefulness of the season. I love looking at them.

Get your own vintage images here.




I wish everyone a Happy Yuletide!

I suspect we're all feeling the stress of time fleeting right now and need to remind ourselves not to rush. Thanks for the vintage angels link ;--)
Hugs and blessings,

Dianne is right, we will survive and peaceful angels like these will most definitely help!

It's too easy to be too overwhelmed and then forget the real reason for the season, isn't it?
