Santa's On His Way

Official NORAD Santa tracker which seems to get better every year.

​I've been thinking about the two or three must do chores that need to get done today, I'm also thinking about the big events of the past year.. I think of the weather extremes we've made it through, the wonderful visits with family who came from far away, losing my beloved Snooks, and the new YouTube channels that offer wonderful support and connection, and the best news of all: of our family expanding!!!
I will be adding to this list through the next week, and charting a plan for 2025.
Writing prompt: The best and worst of the year? (We could say 'the most challenging,' but doesn't that expression water things down sometimes? We might need undiluted emotions and expressions)
Writing prompt: Plans, a rough draft of how you'd like 2025 to be?
Today I am grateful for Santa's return! He brings hope, to everyone, doesn't he?
Today I can give from my heart: passing on the season's blessings

Also a great favorite of mine to watch today: Umbria Italy live webcam of St. Francis' Basilica. The tree is lit up right before Christmas eve, and there is a creche and light display at night.
