Falling Victim...and Liking It!

I love Christmas. I love the reason for the season and I love all the activities that follow. Fun, Family, Friends, Food. One thing that has always been common knowledge amongst my inner circles--I HATE Christmas Music. And I blame Retail. After one horrible Holiday Season working in the Mall at at store that was Going Out of Business, I have lost all affection for Christmas Music...and Enya, while we're at it. But as I was driving home earlier today I found myself singing along too Christmas Music on the radio (probably because there was nothing else on-and I forgot to reload my iPod). Guess I was just giddy over the festivities. Mom's Christmas Day dinner, which in previous years has only included the four in my family, plus four grandparents, has swelled to over 25 this year, 8 of them under 10 years old. Wow. Look at the time. I better get to sleep if I'm going to keep up with everything tomorrow. Merry Christmas to all as I find myself humming a montage:

Walking home from our house Christmas Eve.
On a cold winter's night that was so deep
He led them down the streets of town
Go tell it on the mountain.
Fast away the old year passes,
We can hardly stand the wait
Good tidings we bring to you and your kin
From now on, our troubles will be miles away
