Welcome back, everyone! Christmas Eve is one week from today. I hope you’re getting excited!

Behind today’s door is a post from Bridget at The Ravell’d Sleave. She’s got a hilarious tale of family and music and Christmas for you.

We’ll see you back here tomorrow to start the final week of the tour. Have a great day!

Three beautiful things from my past week:

1. A coworker was really insightful and asked about something that’s been a struggle I’ve been keeping to myself. It meant everything for someone else to give voice to a problem that I sometimes think I imagine.

2. It was a ridiculously warm day today in the northeast, allowing us one final volleyball gathering on the patio of my local dive bar. With omicron’s virulent tendencies about to make life a whole lot harder again, I appreciated it tremendously.

3. Rudi came home for 16 hours between trips.

How about you? What’s been beautiful in your world lately?
