This Advent is really a time of preparation. Preparing for a very different way of life for a while.
I will put the tree up in the new place and we will have a joyous Christmas! Our kitchen is going to be Crachit-sized and it will be interesting to cook a Christmas dinner there, but we'll pull it off! And it will be different but how can we not be Joyful in celebrating Our Lord?
We have to watch the usual round of Christmas Carol versions. That will definitely be a good way to prepare once we get moved in.
