Wow, it’s Thursday already and Christmas is only two days away. Here’s what’s rattling around in my head as the holiday approaches.

  1. Tuesday, Mom explained why she loves the song White Christmas. “I was with her dad the first time he heard it in the 40s. He said, ‘That’s a pretty song,’ something he didn’t say often. I think of his words whenever I hear the song.”
  2. Yesterday was eternal optimist day in the northern hemisphere. For the next six months, the minutes of daylight will increase. Can already feel the extra vitamin D turning you into an optimist?
  3. After a week of spray painting an old metal stool, sanding off the drips and runs, applying new coats of spray paint, and sanding off new drips and runs I’ve removed professional spray painter from my list of dream jobs. It’s time to move on to professional bon bon eater.
