Christmas is nearing! The magic and wonder is building inside. The days of this week are flying by--unexpectedly. It's like I blink and the day's half over. I blink again and it's nightfall. Eesh! Where does the time go? Tomorrow, I must get my cards written, signed and mailed. At least, the ones I'm sending off. Then Thursday and Friday I must do the family's for Christmas to put in their stockings--mine still isn't up. It's all I could afford.

Time for a lil Music Mambo.
