Wanna See My House Decorated for the Holidays?

Well, it’s finally here! What I like to call The Season of Light which encompasses Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanza, and all of the other things people celebrate in December. Included in that is also the Winter Solstice – the shortest day of the year and therefore often thought of as the darkest day of the year. And yet, in that darkness, the light stands out brighter than ever.

Last year was the first Christmas we spent in this house. We had only been here 3 months and things were still in disarray. So holiday decorations were minimal. To make up for that, I went cray-cray this year and the house is literally dripping in Christmas. Wanna see?

And that’s just indoors!

All of this went up unusually early for us, but Lee (who can be a little bah humbug some years) was even on board for it. I try to limit the Christmas music when he’s around since he works in retail and he’s been hearing it pretty much since Halloween, but for me it’s playing all day long. I’ve discovered several YouTube channels that play beautiful music with gorgeous imagery. My favorite this year is the amazing work by Tim Janis.

I know that the holidays can be a lot of work (that’s certainly true for me) but I find that the work can be joyful by surrounding ourselves with the magic of the season in whatever ways possible. January is going to roll around faster than you can shake a candy cane at, and when it does, my team and I have a big plan. If you didn’t know, there’s a Mercury Retrograde coming the end of this month right after Christmas. It will be over on January 18th. On January 19th, my team and I will be there to help you get going with a year full of renewal, rejuvenation, and of course, angels, angels, and more angels! If you want to go ahead and get signed up for that FREE event, you can do so HERE!

In the meantime, I’m going to turn on my Alvin and the Chipmunks Christmas channel on Pandora channel and sing about hula-hoops!

Ho, ho, ho!

What the “In-Between” Taught Me About Happiness

The last year and a half of my life has been perhaps the most self-revelatory of my entire life. I do not recall a moment in my past where I have been as dedicated or as intrigued to understand who I truly am. In some ways, that really saddens me. It seems such a...

I Cleaned Out a Closet and Found a Version of Myself I’d Forgotten

You do not want to know how many times I have moved in my life. No seriously. You wouldn’t believe me if I told you. While I know most people do not like change, I seem to love it. I tease people that as a quintuple Sagittarius, I eat change sprinkled on my Wheaties...

2025 Has Flipped Me. And I’m Grateful.

“Fascinating.” Yes, that’s “fascinating” with a period after it not an exclamation point. I grew up watching shows like Star Trek so to me… the word “fascinating” is supposed to be said curiously with one eyebrow raised like Mr. Spock. This whole year for me has been...

The Sprinter’s Spiritual Lesson

Looking back, I cannot recall a time where my life has been so much about learning about myself. Why don’t we do this when we’re young? It would save us so much time and trouble! We could make such better choices if we were just taught to “know thyself.” One of the...

Holding Hope Without Holding on Too Tight

I have a question for you. How does one balance holding hope in your heart without also creating a powerful attachment to the outcome? Seriously, I’m asking. To me, this is a spiritual highwire act. Hope and optimism are powerful manifestors. They bring our heart’s...
