Jingle Bells

Christmas shopping I will go Red kettles at department stores Sidewalks covered in snow Bell-ringers spreading Christmas joy Volunteers bring Christmas cheers Give a dollar or two or more For the needy the bells ring clear Red kettles need to be filled Goodwill is in the air Giving donations is what it's about For those in despair It's the Christmas sharing and giving part "Jingle Bells" for Kim's contest

Thanks PD for your congrats. I just got home from the hospital. A little slow in comment member for their congrats. I'm feeling somewhat better. I must wear my neck brace for two months, but Sp and I will recoup together. Warm Smiles, Connie

Thanks Deb for your congrats. I just got home from the hospital. I'll recoup with SP, that should make me heal faster. I'm not sure when my second surgery will be, probably in April. Warm Smiles Always, Connie

Great, I'll read it and thanks for the comment. Most are so busy with life we forget about giving in other ways. The first day of 2013. Best Wishes, Connie

a perfect sentiment expressed for the Christmas Season .. giving is so much better than receiving luv .. winning wishes for Kim's contest .. I chose 'Twas the Night Before Christmas and spun it my own personal way ..
