I put up my Christmas lights today... well it's just one string of lights really.
As usually one light was broken, and I had to figure out which one. Argh as always. In this case there wasn't even one broken, one was disconnected.
Took me a while to find it though.

Anyway, the title says it all. I'm in the mood for Christmas. I love the way it’s all cosy in the house, people lighting candles… Which I LOVE TO DO TOO. My mom works for a company that makes candles. Sometimes she brings some for me too. It makes the place look a lot more like home somehow.

My horoscope mentioned that I shouldn't go overboard with spending money on gifts and such. Let's just say that there's not much danger that I will do that. I simply don't have the money for that. Ooh, don't I sound like the superstar now!

Unfortunately, it's unlikely that I'll be able to buy gifts for my family or any of my friends this year... just like it has been the case the previous 3 years.
I catch myself wandering off, thinking how nice it would be to buy everyone gifts and how I could make them smile by doing so. There are so many people that deserve gifts... people who have been supporting me since long.

If fate would grant me one wish for Christmas, I'd wish that I'd be able to buy some gifts this year. It would mean the world to me to be able to show some people how I appreciate what they have done and are doing for me every day.

Either way, I'll try to think of something special somehow to show them my gratitude this year. Maybe I'll think of a song to sing for them or something. That's one gift that doesn't cost money, but, as with every song I write, it would be coming straight from my heart.

Love,
Marsha
