Yuletide and looking towards the holidays

My Yuletide is posted and I'm actually looking forward to having time to read the archive this year. Now I also feel like I can go back to some other things that I'm writing, my Rebelcaptain secret santa and a prompt for the Cassian prompt-a-thon. I hope that this is a quieter holiday, last year was so strange. Most of the holiday was spent going between my sister's hospital room and my brother's place in New Jersey. We made it work but there was no real time to simply be as there usually is in the holidays.

This year my brother and his family are at his in-laws so its going to be me and my parents. I think that will be nice, trying to do big family after last year I think would be kind of jarring. This way, we'll have moments together and time to be, I expect to do lots of reading. I'm thinking about even trying to do holiday cards since I do love sending them, but didn't happen last year. So if you've given me your address, there might be a card.

Also before I head down, I'll be seeing the new Star Wars' movie, which I'm hoping for good. Knowing who I'll be seeing it with, I know I'll have good time.

My holiday felt like it started off early when I saw opening night of the Christmas Revels, and then on Sunday, I volunteered backstage. I helped to feed the cast and crew which was wonderful. I've only recently started volunteering with the Revels but its filling a spot in me for the theater. I'm hoping to keep getting more involved with them in the coming year.
