It has been awhile since we put our fingers to the keyboard and typed a blog, flu and chronic sinusitis took a hold before Christmas. Hopefully, six weeks of antibiotics and many home remedies has killed the germs. We have had a very relaxing Christmas here at Serendipity Loves HQ, lots of time spent relaxing with family.
It seems strange as you get older, strange in that money really can not buy the gifts you want on Christmas morning and for the holiday duration. The only gift we truly wanted this year, is to be in the company of our family, in full health. And as each year passes, it becomes a cherished gift to be all together for another year, reminiscing and making new memories.
