Merry Christmas!

 I have been AWOL for the entire Christmas season.  In reality this has been a very 4 weeks and a very different holiday season.  We did not put the decorations up on Black Friday; heck we didn't even go shopping on Black Friday.  We had Friendsgiving instead.  We eventually did get decorated but it took about a week, that is 6 days longer than it has ever been before.  My birthday was this month and we celebrated it by going to Disney World for the weekend.  Yes, the parks! We had a great time and we were all safe and did not get COVID.  I may be chastised by some because we did this but here in Florida, we are open and can do these things and we are no worse then all the "closed" states.  We are being safe, we are following the CDC guidelines and our Governor is making sure all is good which allows us to have a Christmas season.  I had taken another COVID test two days ago just so that we could have a safe Christmas eve at my church.  The entire church staff and anyone who was participating in the service did so.  We were ALL negative.  We are all wanting 2020 and COVID to just go away.  Today, I am hoping to make this as normal of a holiday as we can.  We will be together with family and friends but we have been together through this entire ordeal.  I wish you all a very Merry Christmas.  We all deserve one!
