Where were you when the world didn't stop turning????.....?????



What?  The world is still here???!!

Yup, I went to bed Friday night realistic, knowing that this world as I live it was not going to end.  But it didn't stop me from enjoying the blubberings of those convinced that we would all be incinerated.  For a moment I thought about those Doomseday Preppers, and yippee for them, they were prepared!! Hahahaha!!  By the time I was crawling into my bed, snuggling up under the warmth of the bed covers and enjoying the body heat from my husband, I knew that if the world was to end, at least I was right with God and my husband.  

I received that late night text from one of my children who wrote: "If the world ends, I love u".  That was alright with me.  She was in her own home, ready for the world to end as well.  Truthfully, as tough and independent that she is, she would have stepped out on her porch and told the world to stop destructing, and it most likely would have happened.  She's bossy like that.  

Guess what?  To my surprise I woke up, and very well rested at that.  As I touched my feet to the floor, slipping on my house slippers, there was no detection of one single odor of burning buildings, or exploded gas lines, and no blisters found anywhere on my body.  Wow!  I survived!!  I guess now I'll just wait for my souvenir t-shirt:  "I survived the Doomsday of 2012!"

Now here it is Christmas Eve 2012.  Instead of waiting for the end, I think I'll just wait for the big fat man in the red suit as he stuffs himself down the chimney for the stuff that we really don't need.  Hahaha!!!  But that's alright.  I know I will enjoy every moment this Christmas as I'm surrounded by my family who love me unconditionally, and miss my family whom we can't be with this holiday, but are warm in my heart.
