Hello December

Good morning and welcome Through My Back Door on this first day of the last month of the year. I can hardly believe it is almost Christmas.Where has the year gone? I have had a good year and am truly thankful for it. I have met some new friends and taken several trips. We will save those for another post. Today I just want to welcome December with a cup of White Christmas coffee and some sugar cookies..We can sit in the living room and just visit.
It has been raining here for three days and I am sitting in a chair with a heating pad on my shoulder most of the time. I am eating too much and drinking too much coffee, but that is what it is. I will share a few Christmas pictures today and post another post real soon.
some of the Christmas books in a basket. Others are here and there as I love having them out.
As you know this is one of my all time favorites. I also like the sequel, A Memory of A Cup of Christmas Tea.
I love this one. I can still hear the bell. Can you?
Well I am so happy you came Through My Back Door where life is good.

PS My friend Al's son Matt is having open heart surgery today. Will you pray?
PSS: Also please pray for those who can't come home for Christmas this year. Some mama's are deployed, some daddies, and always someones child
PSSS:I hope you enjoy every day between now and Christmas. I am giving myself a gift a day on my FB page. Will you join me?

  1. Hi Betty! I'm so sorry to hear you are a bit down and out, but glad you are taking care of yourself. I like to put out my old Christmas books each too. I even have the same Hallmark Polar Express Santa as you and put him in a chair with a book each year as well. Hope you are on the mend soon! Jane

  6. Hi Betty, I found your blog over at Bama Antiques. I'm always looking for blogs with non painted and non distressed antiques. :) Yours is quite lovely, I am your newest follower.
    I see a basket of blown glass eggs, I have a collection of all sizes of painted ones. They are a lot of fun.
    Have a great day!
