Yes you did Louise. You're writing us a new story!  :)

oh thank you for saying that Fabienne... I feel much less guilty about the Christmas cards!  I was motivated to write a Christmas message for everyone on my blog, and I am hoping by next Christmas there will be news of "Taking Chances" heading to publication.  Wouldn't that be great?

Hi everybody,
Christmas is almost over in Germany, too. It's a bit strange to think that for so many Brokies Christmas is only one day. For me, it's three days (Christmas Eve, first Christmas holiday and second Christmas holiday). And even these three days aren't enough to meet all the people you'd love to, so the Christmas gatherings with friends are extended over the whole week between Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve.
This week is called "zwischen den Jahren", which is literally "between the years" (comes from former times, when different calenders were used in different regions) and most people have time off from work.

This morning, it actually started to snow!  :) Just for a short time, but the ground is covered with a few snowflakes and since it's cold, they didn't melt away. I can't remember the last time we had snow on Christmas. Yay  :D!

'Zwischen den Jahren', that's a great expression. And how lucky you are to have a white christmas. That must be really special.

I wish I could have a few of those posts, then I would be back in the TOP TEN. I fear i'll never see the Top Ten again!

Come on Leslie!    Only 199 more posts and you 'll hit 10,000!

I'm working on it!!

26 degrees here today. We had a small snowstorm yesterday which I didn't expect. I didn't even take a hat or gloves to work. Oh well. The nice thing about a fresh coat of snow is it covers up all the dirty gray stuff leftover from the week before.

I know what you mean.   I would need to make 1095 posts today just to catch up to Jeff Wrangler at number 10!

Don't be so hard on yourself David. Divide those 1095 posts into two days  ;) :laugh:
