A Month of Challenges – Day 11 (December 11)

I hit a bit of a wall today.  After yesterday’s excitement with the Iphone and several days of burning the candle at both ends, I struggled to keep up today.  I’m going to go to bed early, though, get a good nights sleep and I should feel much better tomorrow.

  • My December Daily journal entry will be about the Christmas movies we’ve been watching.
  • on the shelfThis picture is my entry for the iHeartFaces Photo Challenge.  Today’s topic was “on the shelf”.  This shelf is right in our entry way and it holds all the dog’s leashes.  It’s decorated for Christmas right now with two angels on the right holding puppies.
  • For “Journal Your Christmas”, today’s journal prompt is to “have a look around your house right now and see exactly what role paper plays in your surroundings come Christmastime. The most obvious answer is usually wrapping paper! And one of our Christmas journal traditions has been to cover a page in this year’s wrapping paper, dress it up with ribbons and a tag just like a gift under the tree, and call that done for documenting how the presents will be given this year. If you are the type to have a wrapping master plan – whether it’s the paper you stocked up on in last year’s sales, a set of papers where each gift recipient has their own design for all their gifts, or something you love to handcraft with a stamped design on plain brown paper perhaps – then read no more. This is your entry for today! Go, go, go and wrap a page of your Christmas journal with all those paper trimmings!”  This prompt came at the perfect time.
  • Heidi25 Christmas movies.  Mike and I watched “Heidi”.  Heidi helps an invalid girl, Clara, to walk again. Clara walks for her father on Christmas eve. Break out the Kleenex, people!!!!

Until tomorrow,

Grace

“It was great that you took a picture of the shelf with our leashes, but we actually thought you were going to put the leashes on us and take us for a walk.  Next time, can you go the extra step?”
