CHRISTmas

These few days have been a crazy mass of events, one after another.
Venue hopped from Mu Gen's house to Mas Kuning (which I've not visited in aeons) then home then out again to church (KCPSS) and PS followed by CCIS in the dhoby area; home again, out for an appointment at AH (I gotta be more diligent about my exercises) and home to decor the living room (climbing up and down to get the lights up - they look quite nice, I must say). Yesterday I had my first Christmas party at home (I say first cause I don't think I've ever organized one on my own) and today I'm back at Jens' for the yearly tradition.

This year, I'm determined to make Christmas mean more than parties and shopping and presents. Defnitely NOT about Santa.

Brought my book (Finding God in Unexpected places by my fave author, Philip Yancey); am hoping to steal away for a bit of time on my own (as do always).

I never knew this (or maybe I did), but I'm a loner at heart.
It's not the same being alone and lonely though.
Before Jesus, it was mostly lonely.
Nowadays, it's lovely aloneness called solitude.

Merry CHRISTmas :)
