The Whole Advent Calendar December 2022
[I have often attempted some sort of Advent Calendar in December. Last year it was just on each day-number, others have attempted the background to the birth in the manger. This year I've attempted verse again on the numbers of the days, but drawing out some significance from the Bible history, all in brief limerick form. Limerick form was not used to indicate humour, but as a form to make a catchy brief point.] I've now combined the 25 individual days, and of course lost a few comments.

Posted on Tue, 29 Dec 2020
It can be quite a surprise to some if you are able to tell them how it really hurts to have Jesus, who is your Friend, spoken about like that as a loose word. I used to tell the children to avoid using 'empty' words in anger, because sometimes...

ah, thank you for reminding me of scrabble, Jenny. We do scrabble and courtdown puzzles every mealtime, but holidays we usually have a go at the proper game. My husband almost invariably wins by lots, it is his 'thing', but we have fun, and I can...

Very true, Jenny, thank you. When I studied biochemistry, I was amazed at the beauty on the microscopic and molecular scale of the structure and organisation, hidden from our eyes! Rhiannon

All have been fascinated by the turn of the year, and...

It's interesting to imagine being young and fitter again, isn't it? You inspired me to look up a bit about Snow Buntings
I like the image of a tough, bendy body, limbs soldiering on though they ache, Rhiannon

Well-pictured quietness and calmness of waiting winter, like rest for us before the busyness. A useful slant on the IP too. As well as your cheer at being able to capture the thoughts in words.
I quite appreciate the feeling of wanting to...
