I read a friend's blog this morning. Now I had never heard of blogmas (something bloggers did in years past) but as I understand it, you post something every day of December (I think you use old posts or you can do new ones about Christmas) Anyway, go to https://eatingwellonasmallbudget.blogspot.com/ to check it out.
I thought I'd try it. Something new to do (not that I don't have a lot going on) hehe.
So here goes:
I met my husband on a Christmas Eve, the year 1947. He was a clerk at a store where my folks were buying last minute Christmas gifts. There was an instant connection. In Feb 1948 he entered the Navy and we spent most of our courting time writing letters to each other. He even proposed to me in a letter. I have it to this very day, 74 years later!
In 1950 on Dec. 10th we married
so December is a very special month for me.
