Everyone here at the Rustic wishes everyone out there a very Merry Christmas. So far winter is holding off on snow. We are glad for this as usually by now we are snowed in. We still have green grass! Means my horses can come out during the day and blow off steam. The barn kitties can come out too. Only thing I could do without is all the mud. We need a week of below freezing to firm up the ground.

I am very late on sending out xmas cards, and putting up the tree and lights. Seems as we get older we feel less like doing things. Plus no family around just George and myself. So no presents under the tree. We do wrap things for the animals though lol.

I did my good deed though, my neighbor didn't have a tree, decorations etc and really couldn't afford them. So I went up into the attic and brought down my extra tree, lights and bulbs and bells and am letting her use them. They have two cute little girls who deserve a merry xmas. Was a joy seeing their eyes light up at the decorated tree. Makes things worthwhile.

So tis the season to be jolly and nice. Smile
