Mele Kalikimaka, Happy Holidays, Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to you all...and may you have a Aloha day filled with tidings of joy!!! 

Well,I awoke to see a blanket of white covering the ground today...and it looks so pretty on this Christmas Day!! I love it when it snows cause it makes the world look so Pretty and Beautiful!! After gazing out the window at the winter wonderland-not too much snow fell though about 1-2 inches fell last night-I headed into the other room to unwrap the presents under the tree. This is such a magical day and a day of happiness!! Also, It is a day to rejoice in the Lord cause after all this is the Reason for the Season!! 

 After unwrapping the presents, I had to log onto the computer to check emails, update social sites, browse the freebie digikits and I also created some lovely graphic pages in which you can view to the side and below this post. I am so addicted at this Digi-scrappin!! 

After surfing the Internet, I have to get dinner ready for when the family and friends come to visit. I can't wait to see the kids and to hear them tell what Santa brought them under the tree!! After all, This day was made for the kids and the adults look at it as a day off from work, HeHe!! I know I do...A day of Relaxation!!! :-) 

Gotta go and check on the dinner..I am having it catered today but I still have to prepare some more dishes. Have a Happy, Blessed and Safe Holiday and also a Happy 2013 Year in case I forgot to mention it on the Blog!!  Oh and enjoy the art pages posted on the BLog!!

Friday before the Big Holiday

Woo Hoo..We made it to FRIDAY!! And, This is No Ordinary weekend coming up either cause Christmas is next week and then the following weekend is New Year's-2013 Babee!!

 I am so ready for this year to end and the New Year to begin...although I must say, This year did Fly!! Also, Next year is the Inauguration for President Obama and its' happening in Washington, DC-woot, woot!! I may have to attend this Inauguration since this will be the last four years of President Obama!!

Oh, and my heart still goes out to the grieving parents who lost their kids in the Sandy Hook Elementary school shooting! What a sad time these families are going thru and around the Holidayz too!! R.I.P the kids and Faculty of the Conn School.
 And, First Lady Michelle Obama wrote a letter of sympathy to the surviving members of this horrific tragedy and you can read it here in the USA Today newspaper.
or here in the Conn newspaper the Courant

And, President Obama has picked a new Secretary of State-Senator John Kerry will replace Hillary Clinton in the next term. According to an article in the Online version of the USA Today newspaper: " President Obama has picked Sen. John Kerry for secretary of State, hailing him as an extraordinary lawmaker who has played a central part in every major foreign policy debate of the last 30 years."

And, The Republicans and President Obama are still working on the Fiscal Cliff!! I wonder if they will all agree before the Holiday break? To find out more, you can read the USA Today article here

And, in other news, Unemployment rates fell in 45 States despite the Sandy storm which is good news for the economy! You can read the USA Today article here.

Well, I am thru talking news now...I have to go take care of some more errands and do some Christmas shopping!! Plus, I have to decide what to fix for dinner today? Should I order take-out, cook or dine out? That is the question for today...But before I leave you, I read a lovely Christmas poem in the Online version of the Catholic Review newspaper!! 
Here is an excerpt from the article: " Christmas is the fulfillment of our deepest longings. We believe that Christ came to die to show us that death was not the end. And, his farewell gift to us was the gift of peace. Jesus was love in human form. And he came to share that we have the same love living inside us. And just as we must make a decision to come to Christ, so God had to make a decision to come to us."

A Hump before the Holidayz

Hidey Hoo and I hope all are having a Fab Wednesday!! I know I am and it is also getting close to Christmas!! I am totally not ready for Christmas this season..and I haven't even finished doing my shopping yet!! I need to Get A Crackin with my shopping soon!! 

Well, I did accomplish one thing...I created a Brand new digikit titled "A Lovely Day" and it is available for download and to have a play here.  You can see a preview of the contents what's included in the kit above and not everything is shown. I can't wait to see the pages you create using this kit..

And, I have to report some sad news...They have buried the kids in Conn. who were killed by an insane young boy who went on a shooting spree and then killed himself.  The worse part of the story is the perpetrator's own mother taught her son how to shoot a gun and she was a collector of guns-wtf?!!  It is some sick people in this world....In my opinion, The Mother got what she deserved...Her son killed his mother...but I feel sorry for the other people who had to die because of this tormented boy, or rather, family. 

And, The same thing happened in China..where a man used a knife to stab 22 kids  but in that scenario no one died!! Their are some sick people in this world!! 

Anyway, I don't want to talk about sad stuff on my Blog. I want to talk about Happy events and also have you view the lovely art pages I created and posted on the Blog. And, I want you to grab that new kit cause I  love seeing your pages!! 

Rent (Original Soundtrack) - Seasons of Love w/lyrics

525,600 minutes, 525,000 moments so dear. 525,600 minutes - how do you measure,
measure a year? In daylights, in sunsets, in midnights, in cups of coffee. In
inches, in miles, in laughter, in strife. In 525,600 minutes - how do you
measure a year in the life?
How about love? How about love? How about love? Measure in love. Seasons of
love.525,600 minutes! 525,000 journeys to plan. 525,600 minutes - how can you measure
the life of a woman or man?
In truths that she learned, or in times that he cried. In bridges he burned, or
the way that she died.
Its time now to sing out, tho the story never ends let's celebrate remember a year in the life of friends. Remember
the love! Remember the love! Remember
the love! Measure in love. Seasons of love! Seasons of love.

Monday done day

Happy Monday Doneday and I hope it was a great one for you all...It was a busy one for me!!

 I had to do some Xmas shopping and when I arrived at the store and was about to pay for my items, I noticed I forgot my wallet!! I can laugh about it now but I was so embarrassed standing at the cash register and couldn't pay for my items, HeHe!! But the girl working the register was so nice and offered to hold my items until I came back to purchase them...Some nice people in this world and that still gives me hope in the human race.

So, after that fiasco, I had to drive over to my Aunt's house to help with the holiday menu and go out to the market to purchase the items. I love Holiday shopping and being amongst the crowds and hearing the holiday music playing on the store intercoms. Ahh, I wish every day could be Christmas!!

And, I found some cool Freebie digikits as I was surfing the Internet!!! One was a FB Exclusive freebie called "Snow Days"  and I found a cute kit called "My Sanctuary" which is really darling and you can purchase it (click) here. I have placed a sample page below this post, as well as, some other art  pages.

Well, I gotta run and take care of some more errands. Oh, and I almost forgot, I attended a Holiday party last night and had so Much FUN! I had so much FUN that I can't remember the party, HeHe
Have a Blessed Day and Be Kind to everyone you meet cause everyone is battling their own problems only some know how to deal with it better than others...

This is the sample page for the lovely kit "My Sanctuary" in which you can purchase above by clicking the link..A really lovely kit and has an inspiring message on why it was created..

This Kit tells the story of a womans dream for her perfect personal space. A private sanctuary to relax and unwind in, a garden to love and nurture, a special place to enjoy outdoor fun with her children. As her family grows and settles into their home her sanctuary will blossom and grow into the most beautiful mature garden beyond her wildest dreams!

Thursday child

Hidey Hoo and i hope all had a Terrific Thursday today cause I know I had a wonderful day today!! And, The weather cooperated nicely as well.

I created a lovely graphic page in which you can view to the side of this post. I used a Facebook Friend's photo she took of the fireplace and stockings were hung by the chimney with care..HeHe

I am so addicted to this digi-scrappin that I can't go a day without creating a page!! And, When I am not creating a page, I am thinking of a page to create whether it is a trip to the market, a friend's house, horseback riding at work!! But I guess it is nothing wrong with that as long as it doesn't consume one's mind all day....too late it already consumes my mind all day, HeHe!! No hope for me!!

In news today, i heard that Susan Rice has stepped down from the job with the Obama Administration. I don't know too much about this story but from what I can gather or heard, She stepped down cause it would bring unwanted attention and cause a distraction. Oh well, I say whatever!!
Anyway, I read an interesting article published on the Online version of Catholic Review titled " A Survival Kit for Christmas" and thought I would supply a link for you to read. Enjoy the article..

Also, Have a Blessed Day and remember to be kind to everyone who you meet because you never know what troubles, sorrows or events are happening in their lives. We all have our triumphs and pains only some know how to deal with it better than others... Oh and before I forget, I found this interesting Ad on Facebook informing the qualities of Real Men...

And speaking of Men, I'd like to leave you with a poem by Maya Angelou...

Men

When I was young, I used to

Watch behind the curtains

As men walked up and down the street. Wino men, old men.

Young men sharp as mustard.

See them. Men are always

Going somewhere.

They knew I was there. Fifteen

Years old and starving for them.

Under my window, they would pauses,

Their shoulders high like the

Breasts of a young girl,

Jacket tails slapping over

Those behinds,

Men.

One day they hold you in the

Palms of their hands, gentle, as if you

Were the last raw egg in the world. Then

They tighten up. Just a little. The

First squeeze is nice. A quick hug.

Soft into your defenselessness. A little

More. The hurt begins. Wrench out a

Smile that slides around the fear. When the

Air disappears,

Your mind pops, exploding fiercely, briefly,

Like the head of a kitchen match. Shattered.

It is your juice

That runs down their legs. Staining their shoes.

When the earth rights itself again,

And taste tries to return to the tongue,

Your body has slammed shut. Forever.

No keys exist.

Then the window draws full upon

Your mind. There, just beyond

The sway of curtains, men walk.

Knowing something.

Going someplace.

But this time, I will simply

Stand and watch.

Maybe. 

Maya Angelou
