It’s Boxing Day. At least for another 53 minutes.
All I know of this holiday is that it is celebrated in Canada and that it involves leaving gifts for those in need, or alms, in boxes outside our homes. I would look it up on Wikipedia, but I am beyond sleepy and not inclined for that much brain activity.
I had another great night in downtown Franklin. I ate at McCreary’s Irish Pub, which almost feels like a home away from home because the people who work there seem almost like a second family.
I finally got to see The Sound of Music on a big screen, Franklin Theatre-style. That was worth way more than $5.50.
I took lots of pictures with my iPhone. They’re all posted on my Facebook page, so look me up and see all my pics there.
As you might have already guessed, I’m running low on creativity tonight. I supposed I’m all boxed out. Ha.
On a day when most people have already moved on from Christmas, I’m still listening to Christmas music. I finally found my Ultimate Christmas MP3 CD with over 13 hours of hand-picked favorites. Apparently, I have way too many favorites.
I’m still thankful for the Baby born in a manger, whether it was actually on December 25 (which is highly doubtful) or in the spring (which is more likely). What matters isn’t when He came, but who He came for– you and me.
It’s good to be reminded again that I mattered enough to Someone for Him to come into my world and find me and save me from myself and my sins and my mess.
That’s all for now.
