Christmas Is Just Around The Corner And Over The Hill
It's almost that time of the year again while many folks are still shopping for bargains where ever they can find them...... Yes Christmas is coming pretty fast and the weather hasn't changed very much in my neck of the woods..... Football games are being played while many folks have done their shopping for gifts and decorations for their homes, roof tops and yards..... It's an annual thing many folks look forward to doing each Christmas...... Of course the children like to help get the house ready for a visit from Santa himself and his Reindeer ..... That way they know toys will fill their homes another year.....
Many of us are parents now but we all had children in the house at one time looking for gifts from Santa...... I suppose that will always be the case for many households around the world..... I can look back now to the times when my parents just had no money to buy us any toys nor decorate the house and yard.... My how times change..... We didn't even have food a lot of those times but God was with us no matter how poor we were...... Now I see on the news people breaking into businesses and stealing what they can from the very person that is trying to make a living by selling things to the public....
So 2016 is almost over in another month or so as we all get ready for 2017, the new cars, and the football games on TV...... I'm 13 years out from the stroke I had in 2004 and still not back to doing what I once could but glad to just be living as best I can with what I got left in my body..... I can only imagine many of you feel the same way as I do...... At least we got that much to look ahead to in life because it could be so much worse.....
I see on the news where many people are still out shopping for bargains and gifts but the new cars are not selling as fast in many areas and states..... I still got my 2003 Ford Explorer with 208,000 miles on it and plan on having it for more years to come...... I suppose I will always need my scooter as well so it stays in my car to use when I need it since my walking is slow at best and not good at all.... That's life!!!!! I had the stroke and I'm still here 13 years later...... :roflmao: I hope everyone has a good Christmas and a very Happy New Year!!!!!!
