"As we struggle with shopping lists and invitations, compounded by December’s bad weather, it is good to be reminded that there are people in our lives who are worth this aggravation, and people to whom we are worth the same."
– Donald E. Westlake
"From now on
All my Christmases
From now on
Every New Year's Kiss
From now on
All my Christmases with you"
- Jillian Edwards, "All my Christmases"
Puff är halvroad av sin julrosett. MEN ack så stilig. Oklart varför jag ser så allvarlig ut. Äsch. |
Dagens tips: Om du behöver en micropaus i juljäktandet, sätt på valfri julsång och stirra på julkissarnas hypnotiska vickande ansikten tills sången är slut. Jag märkte att det fungerade MYCKET väl till den här.
"Christmas gives us the opportunity to pause and reflect on the important things around us - a time when we can look back on the year that has passed and prepare for the year ahead."
- David Cameron
“Christmas! The very word brings joy to our hearts. No matter how we may dread the rush, the long Christmas lists for gifts and cards to be bought and given – when Christmas Day comes there is still the same warm feeling we had as children, the same warmth that enfolds our hearts and our homes.”
- Joan Winmill Brown
“The merry family gatherings–
The old, the very young;
The strangely lovely way they
Harmonize in carols sung.
For Christmas is tradition time–
Traditions that recall
The precious memories down the years,
The sameness of them all.”
- Helen Lowrie Marshall
“Probably the reason we all go so haywire at Christmas time with the endless unrestrained and often silly buying of gifts is that we don’t quite know how to put our love into words.”
- Harlan Miller
Idag är min sista arbetsdag för i år, för nu väntar JULSEMESTER!
På agendan:
* pussa på The Drömprins
* sova
* hänge mig totalt åt JULMYSET
Man kan säga att jag har längtat. Mycket milt uttryckt.
“Gifts of time and love are surely the basic ingredients of a truly merry Christmas.”
- Peg Bracken
"Vad är det som gör att vissa granar faktiskt bestämmer sig för att bli julgranar och andra bara är fula?"
- Ernst Kirchsteiger
"While winter is white and cold and human hearts are warm, Christmas must continue to be the universal festival of peace and good will, the sacred season of love, the holiday of kindness."
- okänd, Good Housekeeping, december 1913
"Winter is the time for comfort, for good food and warmth, for the touch of a friendly hand and for a talk beside the fire: it is the time for home."
- Edith Sitwell
"Christmas was coming.
One morning in mid-December, Hogwarts woke to find itself covered in several feet of snow. The lake froze solid and the Weasley twins were punished for bewitching several snowballs so that they followed Quirrell around, bouncing off the back of his turban."
-J.K Rowling, Harry Potter And The Philosophers Stone
"I love snow for the same reason I love Christmas: It brings people together while time stands still. Cozy couples lazily meandered the streets and children trudged sleds and chased snowballs. No one seemed to be in a rush to experience anything other than the glory of the day, with each other, whenever and however it happened."
- Rachel Cohn
"December's wintery breath is already clouding the pond, frosting the pane, obscuring summer's memory..."
- John Geddes

"Jag kan längta till mörkret,bildkälla/pinterest
att få tända ett ljus tillsammans med dig
se på stjärnan i fönstret; Den blir kvar här tills ljuset visar sig"

“Mistletoe," said Luna dreamily, pointing at a large clump of white berries placed almost over Harry's head. He jumped out from under it.
"Good thinking," said Luna seriously. "It's often infested with nargles.”
- J.K Rowling, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

"A month of lights, snow and feasts;
time to make amends and tie loose ends;
finish off what you started
and hope your wishes come true."
