I still have so much to do tonight before going to bed–so I’m going to sit on my couch, work on my Christmas Eve project with tea in hand, while Love Actually plays in the background
Happy “almost” Christmas Eve!
Hey Sybil/Tom Secret Santa participants!
Remember, your gifts are due any time between Dec. 24 – Jan. 6, so don’t be alarmed if your gift hasn’t arrived bang-on Christmas Day…and don’t panic if you’re nowhere near finished for Christmas either! There are 12 Days of Christmas, and contrary to popular belief, they occur *after* December 25 (in fact, the celebration of “Twelfth Night” takes place on the 12th day *after* Christmas!) SO, once again, you still have some time to write/create your gift (so take a deep breath and enjoy your holiday celebrations!)
And may all of you, wherever you are in the world, have a lovely and safe Christmas holiday (and New Year’s too!)

If you look for it, I’ve got a sneaky feeling you’ll find that love actually is all around.
