So This is my favorite time of year, has been since I was a little kid. I grew up poor so presents were great but when we didn't have them we had family. I remember spending Christmas eve under the tree at my grandma's house and stalkings filled with chocolate and oranges. I remember big dinners with family I hadn't seen all year and the smell of that beautiful tree. I know so many people who stress this time of year and I still don't understand why. "I have to get everyone a present" and "I hate going anywhere with all these people shopping" are the common complaints. I just like sitting here with my holiday music playing and my winter wallpaper on the desktop, drinking some hot cocoa and dreaming of a white Christmas. Being with family and seeing the world sink into cold sleep is what makes this time of year so grand. Forget the gifts and sales and travel costs! Feel the joy of the season, no matter your faith or income status. Love, warmth and togetherness is the theme of the season people so take the time to smell that once a year chill in the air and watch frosty the snowman with your loved ones. Peace on earth and good will to all the world this holiday season.

Stay frosty ^^
