The 🎅holidays🎄 may be over, but The Best Man †Holiday† is the perfect 🎬movie🎥 for any season and reason!
Last weekend, our latest ❄️snow⛄️ series out of a countless many, I popped the 💽DVD📀 in because
- Watching snow from both my 🏠windows🏡 and on the 📺screen💻 was surreal
- I sought inspiration for ✒️writing💻 a prospective 📚biography📖
- I sought more inspiration for establishing a 🏤school🎓
- I sought inspiration for dressing in black and white for my student’s parents’ 💒wedding👰 where I’ll proclaim🎤 the 📕readings📘
Yet this is by far one of my fave flicks for

This DISPO still can’t seem to let CHRISTmas go.
Since Friday wraps up my weekend (before I return to work on Saturday), I prefer to cozy up at home with A&A at the end of the day …

Aah … So much better when RTC: Ready to Consume!
With my fave HOLYday flavor!

As I watch HGTV‘s Love It or List It Too about houses with pools, I watch this Milano swim in my Mocha ~ Peppermint-style!

What flaves do you crave when your HOLYday hunger pangs strike?
For me, it’s pumpkin during the fall and peppermint closer to CHRISTmas!

White Chocolate Peppermint M&M’s ~ *Target* Exclusive
Here is my latest minty-fresh concoction …

Merry †CHRIST†mas!!!
I feel blessed that my †Holy† Hour at the ♥Adoration♥ Chapel takes place every Thursday, especially this season, when our †HOLYdays† fall: THANKSgiving always, as well as today on †JESUS†’ birthday and New Year’s Day one week from today.

Our Garden complete with this Statue, the Grotto & the Stations of the †Cross† (in progress)
What can be a better way to ring in the day of †CHRIST†’s birth than to spend some time in ✌peace✌ and harmony with the †Blessed Sacrament†?

I had the best spot at our House of †GOD†: smack dab in front of our Nativity Scene! #PTL ✌Peace✌ * ☼Truth☼ * ♥LOVE♥
Happy Birthday, †CHRIST† the LORD!!!

Merry †CHRISTmas† Eve!!! Trim the Tree!! & your Body!

S is for … Shopping * Supermarket * Slimming * Santa’s Helper * Starbucks * Skinny Latte * Sippie / Sippy * Selfie
To me, shopping can be a necessary evil …
Unless I can turn it into a positive experience!

Imagine pushing this giant cart around! I saw this after my venture to Farmers Market. Then I got creative with the pumpkins that I picked from both…
As †CHRISTmas/HOLYday† shopping draws to a close, here are ways we can benefit ~ by burning both our wallets and calories at the same time:
- Cart Press ~ Low Impact (Chest and ♥Cardio♥): Push your cart to work your chest and briskly walk around for ♥cardio♥ on the store floor
- Curl with Both Arms (Biceps): Lift heavy object (i.e., box of soda cans below*) up for a few repetitions at a time; I recommend 10-12
- Single-Arm Curl (Biceps): Lift light object (i.e., bottle below*) up for a several repetitions per arm; I recommend 15-20
- Cart Lunges (Thighs): While standing at an aisle and leaning onto the cart handle, step back and drop your knee, one leg at a time
- Cart Calf Raises (Calves): While waiting at the checkout line and holding onto the cart handle, step on your tippie toes then rock to your ankles for your calves
- Cart Press ~ High Impact (Chest and ♥Cardio♥): After you unload your groceries, push your cart to work your chest again and run to park it for more ♥cardio♥!

‘Tis the Season of Giving
Therefore, †CHRISTmas† is about giving to others, as a gesture of ♥LOVE♥ of †GOD†’s people ~ as if we were doing this for †JESUS† Himself.

Our R.E. student, Delightful DANIELLA, generously gave us this beautiful gift! We our blessed with our little angels!
This is our way of celebrating the coming of †CHRIST† the King.

Bishop MIKE sent me this prayer card a few years ago …

… that I read to our sweet students, who were reminded of the Reason for the Season.

Immaculate Mary at my EP friends’ Blessed Sacrament Church
And let’s not forget MARY, the Queen Mother of †GOD†!

Our Lady of Perpetual Help ~ Continuing to celebrate Advent and CHRISTmas with this Novena to prepare for JESUS’ Birth!
†GOD† bless you all with * ✌PEACE✌ * ♥LOVE♥ * ☼JOY☼
