Only Six Months Away!

There I was, sitting at my desk, looking out over the water, listening to the birds sing and feeling sorry for my struggling tomato plants;  when suddenly, out of nowhere came the thought,  “Six months from today it will be Christmas.”  Well, nothing like spoiling a perfect reverie. 

Yes, it’s true, only 182 shopping days until Christmas. So, for those of you who like to be prepared, you’d better start on your Christmas list and start digging out those cookie recipes.  You can never be too prepared when it comes to Christmas!

For the rest of us, knowing this will give us a good reason to spend more time enjoying the warm weather , the sunshine and our favorite Michigan lake.

But, if Christmas takes you by surprise this year, don’t say I didn’t warn you!
