I'm not a religious person, but this passage is beautiful. Have a Merry (and safe) Christmas everyone.Originally Posted by Marge_Simpson
And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night.
And lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them, and they were sore afraid.
And the angel said unto them, Fear not, for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.
For unto you is born this day in the city of David, a saviour, which is Christ the Lord.
And this shall be a sign unto you, you shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.
And suddenly there was with the angel, a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying
Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.
Merry Christmas, everyone.
ETA: Oops, forgot to say the little one's adorable.

A Blessed Christmas to all, here; especially to little Santa.

First...Thank Marge for adding to the thread a reminder of why this is called the Season of Hope. I wish you and yours a Blessed Christmas.
Second...Tell me I'm not the only one who, on reading that, hears Linus reciting it from A Charlie Brown Christmas?

I've worked at job #2 for the last three days (retail job...shoppers are nuts this year
) and am now battling a rough sinus infection so my nerves are shot and I feel like I got run over by a train but I hope everyone has a very Merry Christmas and a blessed New Year! 
(I hope I find my Christmas spirit again sometime soon or at least that Santa brings me three boxes of Kleenex and more medicine so I can survive my week, LOL )

Just want to take a moment to remember Sharon Dudd. SD passed away earlier this year but last Christmas she was busy both packing boxes to send to soldiers in Afghanistan and driving the admins nuts with all the smilies she kept posting. Wherever she is now, for sure she is watching skating, and drinking eggnog.
So happy holidays to her and her family and friends and all those other FSUers we have lost over the years. I will raise a glass to them all today.

Sharon Dudd helped me last year with a gravy recipe. And stuffing.
Merry Christmas to all.

Mine already has. My Dad's here w/us for Christmas and he's having a *really* good day to boot. We've had some close calls this year and then... Considering how he was doing last night after coming home from Dialysis, we were wondering. Add on that he was asking me all weekend he did get something for Mom for Christmas, right? And then last night he asked us when Christmas was, so... Originally Posted by l'etoile

I've been thinking of Sharon ever since Friday and missing her something awful. Buzz...You forgot the chatting w/the greats of the Chicago Cubs too. I just know one of the first things she did up there was gather them all together for a good chat of the Glory Days of Cubs Baseball. Originally Posted by Buzz

Yes indeed...Here's is to all of our loved ones and dear friends. Both those w/us and those absent, but always in our hearts.
