It's true, Mark - no candle
My night of bliss was so great. I really needed that. When I was done pouring through my books I laid down in front of the fireplace to do a little fire-gazing.
Fire-gazing is apparently a sleep-aid.
Who knew?
I woke up several hours later & crawled up to bed. I slept until 8:30 which is late for me. I've been fighting a cold all week & today will be no different.
I think a long hot steamy shower is on the agenda today.
I read up on Yule last night - the Pagan traditions, rituals & beliefs around the holiday. It is all stuff I've read before but it served as a great reminder of why we do the things we do during this season. Why bring in a pine tree? What is with all the twinkling lights? Why is mistletoe symbolic? I dog-earred a few pages to share with the kids on the night before Yule which is when we are having our family celebration. I also need to get a book on Hannukah for Boo Bear. He's been learning about it in school & is very interested in understanding the menorah.
How did you spend your Saturday night?

Drunk. KIDDING!
I spent the evening watching a really stupid movie that Hubby wanted to watch. I swear, some men have NO taste in movies. But he was a warm body and I was cold, so cuddling with him was worth every minute.
Your evening sounds MUCH better though! I could have pulled the electric blanket out and skipped the whole Hubby warmth thing.
Christmas Caroling!
When is Yule? And how will you celebrate?
