Christmas Eve on the interstate...

I can't believe it's Christmas Eve already and there I was, out doing the last-minute running around like everyone seems to do despite their most ardent resolution not to. As I was traveling down the interstate at 70mph (the legal speed limit around here) I was amazed at all the different license plates on the cars blasting past me: Kansas, North Carolina, Tennessee, Louisiana, Alabama, Georgia and New Jersey, to name a few. A veritable checklist of states. People all hurrying to be somewhere special for the holidays.

Yes, I think Christmas Eve is my favorite part of the Christmas season. Tree all up and shining with lights and hope and surprises. Guess I'm just one of those people that anticipation is the best part of it. Like all those people driving on the interstate turning on the warp drive to get where they wanted to be.



Have yourselves a merry little Christmas!
