Renae, If I have trouble with the Christmas Spirit next year, I'm going to come hang out with you for a bit. I've heard its contagious.....LOL! Maybe its just the whole alone again another year that has been compounded by other events....Sigh....Kudos to you and all of your efforts to make life better for some. I hope Santa brings you everything you want!

I have a special place in my heart for foster kids. I donate to the "rainbow room" at my local C.P.S. office. I also call some of the case workers and get the names of needy families to give to companies that would like to sponsor a family for Christmas. This usually includes the works. Christmas dinner, presents, tree, etc. I also am very compassionate about animals, so I usually gather donations from friends and family and put together a huge basket full of dog food, dog beds, toys, bones, etc. to drop off at my local Noah's Ark. I also drop off items at a local alternative school for behaviorally challenged students. I always try to make a donation to the A.S.P.C.A. as well, but this year neglected to do so. Maybe there¿s still time! And last but not least I donate to the Salvation Army, and then every other year sponsor a ¿Little Angel¿ or participate in the ¿Toys for Tots.¿
Once I hear that first Christmas carol the spirit kicks in and I¿m in overdrive until the next year! :)
Merry Christmas to all and have a safe New Year!!!

Queen, I know how you feel, this year is very challenging for me as well. I have an 8 yr old grand daughter though, that I refuse to disappoint, so I am trying very hard to find my love of Christmas (I mean the Holidays). I found a small part by putting up my tree and somehow found it to be quite comforting.....I may leave it up all year....LOL! I wish you much health and happiness for the coming year, and hope your trip is everything you imagined it would be. Oh and for those of you who find Christmas to be politically incorrect, please move on to the next blog.....LOL!
Quoting: Originally posted by Queenofyourdreams Arizona, I usually voluteer during the Thanksgiving time for that type of charity. During this time I give as much as I can to the Salvation Army and the Humane Societys in my area. The Christmas spirit is not with me yet. These past few days have been very mentally challenging and I have been tested mentally in ways that I did not expect....LOL. But that was yesterday. My car is still iced into a snow bank and I may not get out until tommorrow now... I know that the Christmas (pefer Holiday) Spirit will soon be with me. In the meantime, I would like to wish everyone here a wonderful holiday season filled with love, happiness and all the good things that bring joy and laughter to your hearts.
