Christmas is
a wonderful time to celebrate life and the things that are important. I have
been plagued with bad health and am tired of the blood tests, MRI’s, hospital
visits and doctor appointments, etc. I
was diagnosed with an auto-immune disease. Living with pain is something I’m
now used to. So I’m putting better health on the top of my list to Santa. And on a whim... I’m also telling him to note
that… I dream of living in a coastal town, one day… where I can eat seafood to
my hearts content. Where I can start my life over. Perhaps own a little
secondhand clothing store where I sell my wares and jewelry. I know it’s kind
of farfetched, to think this will happen in my lifetime, ‘cause I’m getting too
old to make life changing decisions. But it's up to Santa. It's on my list. I've been GOOD, not BAD. However, I know the reality of the situation. But at this time of year… I get nostalgic
and have the wonderment of that small child, I used to be. "Anything is possible”, I tell
myself. Anything at all. To my friends, family and blog buddies. I wish you
love, peace of mind and a glorious holiday filled with special moments. Take
care. I’ll see you in the new year.

Heck, I don't believe Anyone's 'too old' to dream, or to start over! The road may not turn out exactly as we'd like, but what the heck. I think you'd be great fun to road-trip with. Merry Christmas, Terre! :)
I have those same dreams and visions of things I can do yet. I really believe it will happen to me.
Never stop dreaming and I imagine one day you will have those things.
I am going to take this next week off for Christmas - but I just wanted to say MERRY CHRISTMAS!
HAPPY NEW YEAR!
LOVE, SANDIE
There may be that time when we are too old. Well I guess there WILL come the time we are too old, but PLEASE keep putting it off. I do love your dream, sounds good to me, and it would fit you methinks.
I thoroughly enjoyed the visit to your house today. The post is sweet and so well worded. i enjoy how you express your self.
GOOD STUFF

I hope Santa listens to it ALL! Love ya
I can fully relate to what you're going through. I'm presently plagued with a myriad of health issues myself. I'm not only deeply depressed - I've become extremely bitter.
I no longer have the delicious optimism that I had in my youth - but the dreams, wishes, and yearnings are still there. The prospect of a better future is all we have left....and, who knows, it might possibly come true. Never abandon your dreams.
I hope your holiday season is peaceful - filled with love, fond memories, and the warmth of dreams. Big hugs, Jon
Merry Christmas.
I wish you and your family a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! May all your dreams come true, we can wish and hope. Like you this hasn't been my best year either. I've had Carpal Tunnel Surgery on both my hands at two different times and two weeks ago I had to have a heart catherization done. I'm doing better now and look forward to a Merry Christmas with some of my family youngest son and his family came Thanksgiving. Take care, Jean.
Merry Christmas! I hope the new year is a kinder one to you and yours!
betty
Since I saw a signal, I thought I would drop back to say MERRY CHRISTMAS ONCE AGAIN. Hugs all 'round.

I know I'm in a bad way when I stop dreaming. I know the round of medical "stuff" is tough to go through. I've got an auto-immune disorder -- actually two -- and it does get to me. Thanks so much for the sweet Chanukah card. It was so kind and thoughtful. Merry and happy with love from NYC.
Oh, I've always wanted to have my own shop with unique home décor, and one of a kind items. Let us keep dreaming, Taryterre. I'm so sorry you had poor health this year, and I hope the new year brings you good health.
You have been with me throughout these blogging years, and I am thankful for your friendship. Merry Christmas, dear friend. Yes, always remember, anything is possible, anything at all. I love those special words you said. : )
