Busy and getting busier, but oh so happy! I am so enjoying the holidays this year. (I may need to be reminded of that as we get closer to the big day.) I have such a sense of relief and joy this year because I am healthy. I was working my way out of the malabsorption and fatigue caused by Celiac Sprue last year and still had some shaky days last December but now I am strong and healthy a year later and I am so grateful to God for coming out of that "space" of illness. I have so much more compassion for someone who is struggling with health issues. If you are strong and healthy today I would encourage you to stop, take a deep breath in and be grateful for it. Sometimes during the holidays we end up complaining about the fact that "There is so much to do." I would suggest that you be happy-really happy that you have the strength and energy to make it a rich, blessed season. Give in to the joy of the season, laugh and smile as you stand in line at the post office, wrap gifts and untangle tree lights! Hooray! Christmas is coming!
